What is life about?

Life isn't about keeping score. It's not about how many people call you and it's not about who you've dated, are dating or haven't dated at all. It isn't about who you've kissed, what sport you play, or which guy or girl likes you. It's not about your shoes or your hair or the color of your skin or where you live or go to school. In fact, it's not about grades, money, clothes, or colleges that accept you or not. Life isn't about if you have lots of friends, or if you are alone, and it's not about how accepted or unaccepted you are. Life just isn't about that.

But life is about who you love and who you hurt. It's about how you feel about yourself. It's about trust, happiness and compassion. It's about sticking up for your friends and replacing inner hate with love. Life is about avoiding jealousy, overcoming ignorance and building confidence. It's about what you say and what you mean. It’s about seeing people for who they are and not what they hate. Most of all, it is about choosing to use your life to touch someone else's in a way that could never have been achieved otherwise. These choices are what life's about.

Very inspiring mizu xD

But thats true, i mean, im learning day by day from my errors!, and i while back we were my group of friends talking about how we have matured in from what we were a couple of years ago it was like my friends now in the past it was like we hated allmost all and we fighted for pointless thing but with the moving of the time we have learned to trust people, don't criticize anyone who we don't like, build confidence and a lot of things, but we as people and individual we everyday hurt someone from things that we say and do, so that's something we learn when growing up ... better i stop now or else... XDD

PD=good thread Mizu ^^

If life had a meaning, I would hope it couldn't be found in the sentiment of a greeting card isle, or the collective morality of the time. It's only when life is given a purpose that it becomes truly meaningless. Love and hate stand on equal footing, both dependent, both interesting, both beautiful. In the same way, when people burden themselves with guilt and virtues, they only limit there experience. A life lived for others is easy, but fruitless. If you can't live for yourself, there's no point in still living.

Life is a game where no one wins. That's all there is to it.

Life is whatever each individual views it as, thus there is no directly specific definition to what life actually is about.

Wow... someone with similar opinion with me. Except the winning part. Consider this life as a MMORPG... then you will get that winning part.

A game without saving or loading and a very limited time can boost up your experience greatly. Try finishing Breath of Fire 5 for starters.

Unless you don't like challenges...


Life is a game and I intend to enjoy playing it

It's a game where everyone is playing, that's enough. One of the things that makes it most interesting is the knowledge that at any time, you can stop playing.

Life is about doing what you want with it. It dosn't really matter because when you're dead it means nothing anyway.

Life is about how u live it, and the decisions u make. These things in turn create a ripple effect that will affect other people, be it positive or negative. It is not abt the material things in life. Its all the little things that count. Thats my true opinion, but i feel as though im copying Misuzu..>_<
Sorry, and great post!
