what is life in this world?

Robert Louis Stevenson said, "Life is only a dull and ill-directed theater unless we have some interests in the piece." I agree with him. We are forced to enter this world, and after that, we have taken various roles. And the roles will be changed, substituted, added, reduced and so forth. There are those roles chosen by yourself, but also, those forced by other things. We are playing our roles and watching other's and our performance meanwhile. The point is that whatever the life may be, a optimistic attitude is important. One had better see the performance with interests. That is the only way to get happiness. As he said later, "It is in virtue of his own desire and curiosities that any man continues to exist with even patience, that he is charmed by the look of things and people and he wakens every morning with a renewed appetite for work and pleasure."
