How does a person can say that he/she is living her/his life to the fullest? Is it having having fun with friends? gimmicks? or success in life?

There are several things to me that can lead to a full life. Most important to me is my relationship with my creator, then my relatioship with others i.e family, friends etc. But the difference between great people and everyone else is that great people create their lives actively in all spheres while everyone else passively waits to see where life takes us. Hence while others are living fully others are just existing.

Living life to the fullest is enjoying every single moment of your days that you are living.It does not mean that everyday is happy day but you should know how to cope on everything whether it is good or bad. Find a way to solve everything in a happy way. Exploring things that you have not done before may count because if your life would be taken away from you,you can not have those things anymore. All i can say is "enjoy life"

Living your life to the fullest is all about enjoying life. It does not mean that everything that will come to you is a happiness. Living a life includes coping everything that you encounter without having hatreds in your heart. Enjoying every single bit of everything whether it is good or bad. Exploring things that you have not done before counts.Putting away sadness and changing them into happiness. Forgiving people who have hurt you in the past and forget everything.

I think it depends upon the situation. A Filipino housemate named Bruce was swaped to Tina, a Slovenian housemate. I am talking about "Big Brother." Well, during first day in Slovenia he kept saying that he will live his life to the fullest in Slovenia. I guess he meant he will live his stay to the fullest. He did try to gain as much friends as possible. Learn the culture of the country, he even ask for some basic Slovenian words.
