Life.....
Life isn't about keeping score. It's not about how many people call you and it's not about who you've dated, or who you are dating, or who you 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 have. 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 is about.

May be this sound bad mannered, but the way i say it is in jouke but at the same in serious
"¿And you note that now?"
May be a lot of people has thinked that alredy but isn´t that easy. I know that and try to keep the "good" way. But i, and i sure that you too, we live in an human world dominated with the "bad" way , a world going to the disaster with a lot of people dominated with the TV, the radio and too with the internet. The mayority of people is educated to see the live as the first example(how you look and wath thinks the others) so is hard. Im pessimist, but i cant say that i live me control .
This is a world that the people with most cash and greed control the others, saying how to look, wath to sing, and too wth to THINK. A world that the people that dont think like them will never get in a better place, will never get much friends and will never will get a very good live.
¿you want know of wath i got more fear than the death? I got fear of leave me fall, beacause i know that if i fall in this kind of people i not only will lost my good things, i will become in a bad person that use his intelligese and his innocent reputation for control and accusate others.
The only thing that make me be like i am (good people that take cares from the others more than itself) is that i not a little sure that this isnt, no, IM KNOW THAT THIS OF "A world that the people that dont think like them will never get in a better place" IS NOT TRUE.
I know that i have good friends, and i can get in a better place(somthing that i dont want because my place likes me),i know too that therse a lot of people that thinks for themselves and dont get care of his cloths,and his popularity. Is hard to not be like the society but is possible ,and ,if it cost never have somwhone that love me, i will keep my idea of "how i must be".
(surly this text is hard to understan but the point is i agree to you but is hard to be like that, and i select the hard way)

me too.. life isnt all about love because then it would been called "love" instead of "life".
Everything you do is a part of your life IMO. Sure love is a big part of it.
But without hate/bad feelings you wouldnt know love.
Without ignorance you wouldnt be able to overcome it.
Without meeting people you will have no friends.
Without betrayal you wouldnt know trust.
Without sadness you wouldnt know happiness.
I could go on for a while, but IMO to feel the good.. you also must have gotten a taste of the bad.
And because of that both the good&bad parts is your life.

What is life?
I respectfully disagree with mandy's description of what life is.
Life is all about your choices. That which defines us is that which we have decided upon and acted towards in each our own unique way. Life is also our children. Contrary to popular belief children are not the future because the future holds both life and death. Children are not death. A child tells you it's time to live whether they live or die. You remind yourself that because of them you have one more reason to go on living. Love is an immeasurable connection that comes from a life or death. Maybe your dad was a jerk his whole life but when he died he said he loved you. Life is also the unending thread of existence. One side is absent of that existence while the other contains it. Most find themselves somewhere in the middle looking at either end of the string. To question is to live. To accept and obey is to ignore other truths for one truth. Life is not one truth. Life is not simple nor can it be explained, only experienced. Life is a journey of many paths to take and others not taken. That which we do and that which we don't do defines our lives. That is why so many people fight for a principle called freedom. Those that don't have freedom do not truly live life the way life was meant to live.

I say you can argue as much as you like. No matter how hard you will try to define life, you will never be able to do it. Simply because every person has a different view of things, every person has different goals in life and every person understands something different by happynes, sadness, respect, death and so on.
I belive that life shouldn't try to be explained. It should be enjoyed.

Not true. Birth and death are part of life to. You can't say life starts with your birth, since you are alive when you are in your mother's belly. Since you develop from a cell, that cell is alive, and so are the two cells taht have formed it, so you can't say life begins with birth.

Technecally, it does. My view of life is the period of time beetween life and death in which you live and attempt to make that period of time most profitable and enjoyable.

Technically that is true but it's notwhat life is about,were not talking about your life but what you make of life in this world.
Sure you sit & chill for 9 months inside your mother but explain to me about Death after life.
Do you know for a fact what really actually happens when you die.
Theres a whole thread yrs ago on this but I dont think many really knows what happens.
We can make assumptions but theres no way of telling for sure.

You're right. Anyway, my point was that it's impossible to define life.

You never read any of my earliar posts before huh.
Technically life is what people believe in religion but some are more skepticle about religion.
Life is what you want life to be individually.
Some think it is a test from a religion,Some just do the best they can during the days they are alive.
Some are cutt short unfortunately.
Every person have thier own definition on life & live it diferently so theres no real answers but what you believe life is not everyones same definition you understand?
