"Life is one great journey."  email this discussion to a friend?

I have often heard and come across with this statement "life is one great journey". As for me, the statement is very much applicable to what is happening to my life.
It is not all the time we get to sail in calm seas, a lot of times we have to surpass raging waters and figure out the best solutions for every waves. Whatever and wherever life takes me, I'm always thankful because each day offers me experiences precious than gold. Do you also share the same views as mine? Are there journeys you wish to share?

Life ofcourse from the childhood we have many experiences and they form a lot of changes which we do in the future,no one leave the past only it is that we learn and proceed to wards the future.Life is a journey where we meet many however there are stations where everyone now or then had to leave us.We learn and follow many things Until the end of the lifetime.

Hi Rhaze, have a nice day!have a nice day
Why life is compared to a journey.. while on a journey, we come across so many co-passengers, we converse with them & forget them after the journey! We are not dependent on them for anything so we are not attached to them!

Attachment is a mental state. It is a relationship we have with someone in our minds. When we become attached to someone we use their image to fill our mind. We find our thoughts are constantly filled with their image and the memories their behaviour. It is not we should never think about others, it is more about thinking about others only when it is necessary,to ensure we don't lose our self in their image. This will finally free us of dependency.

If we are attached to someone their happiness & worries make us happy or sad. If they are in trouble, we also get into that trouble. What purpose it will serve. Supposing we love them only but NOT attached to them, in case if they are in some trouble, we will be able to stay away from that trouble , think rationally and bring them out of the trouble! So even in real life those who live with us or closly associated with us should be treated as co-passengers ina journey, then life will be also happy as the journey!
Keep Smiling!happy

Wow, very inspiring. Thank you so much. i agree that we are not sole campers in our journey. We meet acquaintances or some friends along the way. True that its not a matter of being dependent on them but it's how we deal with our journey and the learnings we get from it.

Life is a journey with no destination. It is a jorney of faith and living the life to the fullest. Every part has its good and bad memories. Moreover there are many great experiences where we learn a lot for the life ahead.

I love living my life and will live it to the fullest till the very end.

Yeah I agree with you :)
Everyday is a brand new experience and
every new experience is a new learning
life has many obstacles
life has many failures and success
in life, we learn
in life, we decide and choose
in life we deal and
in life we live :)
I love living and I am happy :)

Being happy means giving much importance to life. Let's be thankful for what we have right now and the things yet to come...

Oh, it's a great sentence. i like it. and i have the same view as you that we can't live our lives peaceful. i like challenge all the time because i don't want to do everything successfully, and i'd like to try everything what interests me.
life is good, and just as you say, we should always be thankful for the precious experiences that life gives us.


myLot reputation of 98/100. starsailover (5702)   ranked 562 out of 32,950 in life  2 years ago

Hi Jack: In my opinion, we can have peace in our minds and I have my own reasons for feeling this even if there's always a challenge. What makeslife more beautiful is that there are som challenge and that you can work for being a better person. Life is good defiently. Thanks for your answer.

It's so true, what makes life exciting are the challenges that either boost us up or gets us down. A matter of choice in facing them.

Life is to be considered one long journey, rightly so.happy

In that journey we should all enjoy every aspect of that journey that we can.
If we all go the same direction, make the same choices and eat the same foods, our perceptions in life will all be similar. sad

Each of us needs to try something different, something unexpected, to truly get out of life what is most rewarding.

SO if we take the path of life that is less well travelled we will learn lots of new things.

We each need to find our own way through life. There are times when we need the help of others, but the rewarding times are those that we can say that we ventured out on our own, not really sure what will happen, and persevered. In those moments, we learned more about ourselves and our surroundings than any moment when we travelled the worn path.happy

Indeed life is such a rewarding one and the sweetest reward may be is when fulfilling what you work hard for.

Hi rhaze bustamante: I think the same. For me lifes is one great journey because you learn even in the simple thingsand at the same time you don't know when you'll find a new surprise. At the same time I love to travel and hopefully if one day I'd work on an Embassy I'll travel a lot and that's nice for me. Thanks for sharing with us this feeling. Have a nice day.

Of course I do. Everyday is a struggle. We need to be prepared at all times for we may not predict the kind of weather would occur. And if we overcomes those trials, we grow more wisely. As we get older, what we can inherit the children is our wisdom. That is life.


rhazebustamante (67)   ranked 25,361 out of 32,950 in life  2 years ago

Trials are somewhat blessings too because it tests us and make us tough.

If you live your life to the fullest, there is no reason that life shouldn;t be one great journey. Life should lived to experience every emotion the world has to offer. Life is full of unexpectations. Enjoy what comes your way!

I think that life is up and down, for some more down then up really. Life is tough to be honest for some people. I think that it would be good if life was better for some people cause you only have one chance in this life and time passes so quickly


rhazebustamante (67)   ranked 25,361 out of 32,950 in life  2 years ago

Live each day to the fullest so in the end, there will be regret for not doing something worthwhile.
