Thinking about Life


Everybody knows that life is the priciest gift, and you only live one. However, not everyone knows life is beautiful and worth living. This depends on each individual's attitude and purpose in life.

What is life?

Maybe it is short, and is generally answered with such as the following:

The purpose of life is to be successful and happy. Some other people have a long list with so many things on it to make them feel comfortable and happy: money, health, and fame. Some other people with high morals think about life as life without greed and selfishness and life that follows the idealistic to help and give happiness to others. Therefore, depending on each situation and the goal, each person will have his or her own answers, which will be different. That is why you have to live as you feel right and go to some place in your heart that guides you as the famous comedian, Charlie Chaplin, said: Life is a play not practiced before. Therefore, let’s sing, dance and love every second and minute of your life before the play ends without any clapping hands.

Many are wasting things in life

Health: when young, people think they are healthy and they work like crazy, play all night, and eat without moderation. Therefore, the body gets tired and ages fast. When old, they try to hold on to their health, but it is too late at this point.

Time: every second and minute is gold, and when it passes, we never can have it back. However, some people throw their eight hours a day working through the window. Each day, we should look at what we have accomplished. If the answer is "nothing", then we have to rethink about our time.

Money: many people spend money without thinking. Therefore, when they need a small amount of money, they have to borrow. People who do not know how to save money will never have a big property

Youth: it is the time when people have a lot of health and knowledge to do the big things, but many people do not know about this simple statement: “ when young you  play when old  you regret". This is also good advice for people who have wasted his or her youth for things that are not important.

Opportunity: this does not come easily into our life. One good opportunity can change you to become a successful CEO or a billionaire with a lot of money. If you do not pay attention, that opportunity will pass and you will miss the fortune and you will not get ahead.

Beauty: this is the best weapon that women possess. With beauty, you will feel more confident and get more favors than other people. However, beauty has a short life also. It is wasteful to let beauty slide downhill. Let’s take care of our beauty every day.

The Five Things that we should do:

First thing: read carefully a book. A good book will make your heart melt.

Second thing: hold on to one job. Being good at one profession will make your life much easier and will feed your family. Do not be careless on a small job because a small but unique job will become very valuable.

Third thing: have a good family. No one says that we have to do a big thing like run for a big office or change the world. For most people, this seems too hard to accomplish, but building a good foundation for family is a task that can be done.

Fourth thing: always carry good sentiments inside. If we always have a good feeling, then the world will fill with sunshine every day. The way to have a good sentiment is to have a heart that knows how to love and in that heart is only contended love.

Fifth thing: be a good person. Do not ignore the small charity and do no small evil act. Keep doing small good things more and more will make you become a better person. The world will not need a lot of heroes or many geniuses, but it needs many good people.  Try to do a simple thing mentioned above, and your life will be shining .Maybe your life is not glorious, but your heart is sincere. You do what you can do and live right by yourself and with the world.
