Life .....Is it pointless ?

[GOD]

Really guys think about this when u are born your really dying . Everyday that goes by every hr / min / sec that goes by your slowly dying . Since the day that you were born u were actually dying ..it's kinda sad but tru Your not exactly getting any younger your just getting closer and closer to your death .

Another thing about life ....is it really all that its cut out to be the reason i say this is b/c one day it's all just gonna come to an abrupt STOP and everything that you have worked for ..loved and cared for won't be there . Sometimes I think that life is kind of a waste b/c all you do is get old and die one day . Sometimes I wonder why do I go through all of these emotions of love/hate/pain/happiness and for all of it to just disappear one day . It's kinda like if i was to die today would that really change anything in this world ..... I'm thinkin to my self ..NO not really , yes people would miss me and cry over me but over time I would have been forgotten . If one person dies today is it really going to change the past/present/future ? I really don't think so

I just had this stuff on my mind for awhile and I just wanted to kinda let it out so if it doesn't make any sense to you just ignore it

This is your life, and it's ending one minute at a time.

the way i think is that yes when you are born the hour glass starts. in the period of time you are alive. try to be great to yourself and your famaly\freinds. whom cares if you discover cold fusion or something like that. as long as you have people that love and care for you they will always rermember you and the small things you done.


i hope this helps a bit

I agree, yeah you're dying but oh well, everything does. Just try to live it to the fullest. take chances, you only live once, or do you? anyway. dont be afraid that you're a useless dot on the world. I mean everywhere you go you're gonna effect atleast one person. Hey you never know maybe what you do in your adolesence will somehow effect your 30's a job at a used car dealership at 18 might lead to you inventing THE greaest car ever thought of at 30. you never know.

Not u god but GOD put us on this earth to see what would happen and what
would become of us. And it is not pretty. You just have to live your life
to the best of your ability. When you get a scraggly car.. well you have
to make the most of it. It is all about becoming a good person. Just
do what you do and keep doing it. Be good to others as all of us are
brother and sister in GOD'S eyes.

Life. In some views it may seem we were born to suffer. In others, we have a purpose.

What we make of our lives is just that, what we make of it. We start out babies learning love and care by our parents. We learn new things everyday. We go to school to learn about the world around us and what lies in the future. We try to the best of our abilities to understand things that evolve around us. Some things though, are better off not explained or understood. Yet many of us still have that desire to understand. There are those that lose focus of things around them just so that they can be ahead.

We set goals in order to give us direction, purpose, meaning. Once the goal is achieved, we feel we have accomplished something in our life. That would, in essence, be our purpose. To achieve things and then later reminisce about what we have accomplished. Feeling good that because of something that you did, some change has come about. It's that need to feel "Accomplished" that would serve as a guiding light to many.

You go through life wanting this and that, yet never appreciate what we have or gone through. Always feeling empty or left back because we didn't get this or that. While not always a bad thing, its the things we do have that make life all the more enjoyable. Some go through their whole lives with only the clothes on their backs, yet they are content with themselves because they got the chance to live. Others though, feel that only through material, power, etc., they will be complete. "You don't appreciate things, until they are gone."

This expression is often tossed around with no backing. Everyone recognizes it's meaning, yet no one truly grasps it's siginificance. The truth is, life is what you make of it. Once you are born, all your actions, emotions, decisions and what have you, all play a role in what life you will lead. It is the person, not anything else, that determines what will be in your future. While many say fate or destiny determines your future, I say you control fate and destiny every day that you wake up in the morning and say "What am I going to do today?" From the moment you get up, you start making decisions about what you are going to do that particular day. Make wise decisions as opposed to impulse decisions. Doing things that you want as opposed to what you need will only get you that immediate result. Yet the other decision might of had a more lasting effect that would have benefitted you.

I choose to live my life everyday as I see fit. I used to be an outgoing or "popular" person a few years back. Looking back now though, that was what I chose at that time. I have nothing to show for it now except for the lasting memories which serve no purpose now but to amuse me in the things I used to do. I don't regret what I've done, but can't help feel that I could have done something better. If I got a chance to do it over, I'd probably do it different.

So if you ever question your life or what evolves around you, look back at what you've accomplished. Then make a decision on whether you really need or "want" something else. Chances are you probably were going on an impulse decision.

Thank you

Now back to the life issue.

I totally agree with the whole 'Don't take life for Granted Thing' I try be nice to thers and I take risks and I do some bad things. My philosiphy is "You only live Once" Meaning that if you want to do something, do it! you may never get the chance again! I don't always do that but I usually stick by that.

BTW, seeing as life is slowing being sucked from me, when I'm 40 or so I intend to move to a part of a Country with total tranquility and sanctuary I don't care about financial woes, I'll get a job picking rice or something, but I don't want to die, In a big city or because of some trajic accident, i'd rather live my life out away from the Evil of Cities and Such in a place that is free of Man and untouched by pretty much anyone. Hey! This is philosiphizing so I can blab about my future life as as a Marlon Brando of the Mountains, make one thing clear though, I don't want to be cut off from Technology because it has made great advances that make life easier, so It is just the masses of People and Cities I wish to get away from.

Keeping it short and sweet (no not a swipe at DVSNCYNIKL) I chose to recognize my own mortality, but not dwell on it. The day I am knocking on the pearly gates, I dont want St. Peter asking me why I kept counting my money before the game was done.

[primera man]

I try not to think about death...it will happen to us all one day.

I believe you should live your life to the fullest. Dont worry about tomorrow, worry about today. Take each day 0ne at a time

Life is to short...they say the older you get the quicker it slips you by.

I guess the only thing that does worry me is getting really old and being unable to do things for my self.
I've always been a very independent person.
