Hi friend, have you ever thought about this question, what do you live for? To enjoy life, have nice food, comfortable living? To pursuit something? Live for others? Is it quite hard to get an answer, as we can not choose to come to this world or not. Anyway, we can choose the way we living. Pls share with us your opinion. Thank you.

When I was a middle school student,I had thought this question.At that time I hoped I can grow quickiy so that I could do what I like myself.As I grow up,I have learned more.People cannot only live for yourself,every time you success is with a lot of help.So we should share your achievement with the people around you.I am too small,and I cannot chang the world,but I will do my best to make people around me have a good life .It is only my own opinion.And I desire what do you live for?

Life, all would say is to live out in happiness and with peace. There is an incident that finally helped me realized as to for what I live this life. This is a little personal, but this in fact has been my major source of inspiration ever since I was inspired at all. There came a point, in the midst of my academic mediocrity, when it dawned on me why my mom was so disappointed when I didn't do well. It wasn't because she thought I was wasting her money, or that her only daughter was a moron with an IQ of -64. Instead it was that, never having received an opportunity for formal education after Form 5 (Grade 10), she'd worked inhumanly hard for the rest of her life to make sure that I would. When I realised that, I started to take joy in pushing myself to the limits so that at the end of the day I'd be able to see that sweet smile on her face when she could believe that she hadn't hoped in vain. And you know what? Now that my mom's passed away, I don't just miss her every single moment I'm awake. I feel a little aimless too, like an arrow that's been shot with such strength that it's bound to fly high -- only it doesn't know which way to fly so it's just a matter of time before it hits ground.

When I was a middle school student,I had thongh this question.At that time I hoped I could grow quickly so that I could do myself what I like.But as I grow up,I have learned more.I cannot live for myself only, more concerned those people who loves me.When you have nice food,house ,car and so on,you should share it with them,because without their help,you cannot success.I donot have a lot of most,I only hope people around me have a good life.
