Do you think that life is a battle, or an experience?

The personal development of each of us spoke often question who we are and what life is. The answers I received were divided into two directions. I have often heard the wording "life is a battle. " Life is a battle for survival, a battle with yourself, a battle with others. Children are, we are taught to compare and we position ourselves in relation to others. There are different ways to evaluate our place in society: business and later school achievement at work, we compare in terms of material and, last but not least our personality determine the attitude of others toward us. All of these general elements puts us in a certain place, we indicate the limits between which we move and often determine our attitude towards people and life. Compete for attention, to gain acceptance of others with reference to a pattern of perfection we created our own experience. This image of perfection we throw in a constant struggle with ourselves. We're not good enough because we do not fit into our picture of perfection. We judge and punish us when our actions have the desired results. Looking from this perspective I agree with those who say life is a battle. And if life is much more than a battle? I met the idea that 'life is an experience. "By what we live we learn, accumulate, understand, experiment. Good or bad, beautiful or ugly, right or wrong, truth or falsehood of all the experiences of our reality is different. The attitude we have in our lives to create these experiences. Perspective from which we look at life change attitudes and create a new reality. Our attempts to become better, more beautiful, more honest, closer to perfection is a departure from the experience life in its fullness. Frustration, discontent and our failures are the emotions that we attach to their experiences. Often we look at these feelings as negative when in fact they are the energy that we can use to learn and understand. We are upset that we do not succeed fully in what we want, there are many problems in our lives. And if they are simple experiments from which we learned? For me life was until recently a battle with me, a battle to become better as more and my stubbornness to win, the more they change the self image of perfection. Later I realized that this battle is an experience in itself and that can become more fulfilling life if I accept it as is. How you look at life,a battle,or an experience?
