Life

18 years on this planet and I am yet to understand what Life is. The time of twenty four hours given to us is nowhere near enough to realize what this; is it a gift? is it a curse? is it a phenomenon? a game?
Yeah, so what is the meaning of life? A google search, like the one above? Is it the hours spent burning a hole in your pockets shopping? Your job maybe? Your spouse? Parents? Or is it all of these put together? people have so much to think and talk about, they loose track of the bigger picture: they just live life, not LIVE life!

Life is a marvel in itself. Something to be cherished, to be felt, to be treasured, to be shaped into the most beautiful works of art. In all the pressure, the hurry, the madness of what people think is life, they loose the artist in themselves; the one that brings beauty to their life. life can be anything you want it to be: an adventure, a painting, a blogroll, a race, anything!

Most people choose the race format and make life a race: who will make the most money? And the best thing is... life has no rules, none at all. Its one of those things u define, design and play on your own. YOU decide what effects you, YOU decide what makes you, its all you. Its purely how the individual plays it. they can choose to blame another, they can choose to let another play their life. But it is THEIR choice. What most rats in this race miss is that it is THEIR choice! It is they who are responsible if someone else controls the remote to their lives! it is they who are responsible if they control their lives.
right out of spiderman, as Ben Parker quoted: "with great power comes great responsibility". life is a super power bestowed to every one of us. what decides its use is how responsible you are of this super power of yours.
 In the end life is what you make it. Its meaning is defined by how you live it and how you much you love it. In all the years i have lived,  i have learnt one valuable lesson: never take life for granted. Its the worst mistake you can make. To waste your life is the greatest crime. People who take life for granted end up... well... dead.  One way or another, they end up dead.

Love your life, live your life. Do what you want to, but with a degree of responsibility to it. There is nothing more precious you can have than life itself, so treasure it. Forget the little things that bother you, look at the bigger picture, and ask yourself this very important question: WHAT IS LIFE?

  10. Life! One helluva game ain't it?! It has challenges to throw at you when you're only just gasping for air after overcoming one! It tests you, makes you a victor, beats you to pulp! "Everything has been figured out, except how to live.", someone said.
