I don't think there is another better way to make life more living than what the proverb says. "Take life as it comes" to me means that never worry about the future, live the present moment. As Bob Marley said, don't worry, be happy. You never know when life will end, maybe we will die today itself, who knows. so it is better not to take life for granted, it may end anytime, so let every moment in your life be the start before the end. And remember, if you ever feel low, there is always a hug from a loved one. Peace, love and freedom as they say, and everything takes care of itself.

Its easier said than done most of the times isnt it as evrybody seems to agree on this line and when things are really bad, it's also difficult to accept the life's facts and finding out ways to solve it keeping ourselves positive all the time is real test isnt it..!

Yes, you true mate. But the thing is that we have to pass the test of life, and we can only do that by loving to the moment, and trying to find the answers that matter like what is the meaning of our existence and all that things.

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and wel preserved body but rather to skid in broadside thouroughly used up totally worn out and proclaiming wow what a ride!

Life is ample,including happiness\sadness\opportunity \difficulty and so on.when the happiness come,we should enjoy it,when the difficult come,we should confrone and try our best to overcome.we should remember that " change what we can change,but accept what we can not change".

well.. personally, i follow the saying 'whatever happens,happens for the best!' you never know whats gonna happen tomorrow so whatever happens..accept it,and move on. well.. thats what i do atleast :P another thing.. an example! : when you know theres a problem coming up, getting pissed about it isn't gonna help you at all.instead, think of what your gonna do to fix the problem. well thats all i have to say on this topic.. so.. adios!

Its easier said than done and this line doesnt mean that yousit idle and accpet things as it comes to you...you have got it wrong here.What i meant was in thsi life happiness comes to evrybodya nd these are not at all testing times and in other times even sadness comes and here the real test wil be theer for you to solve that problems and in some cases you may not be in any position to tackle soemthinga nd you just have to accpet life as it comes at thsi time keeping yoursle positive and i hope i have cleared your things here

Well, what other options do you have? You can't just plan out every moment of the rest of your life, can you? Just take things as they come and roll with the punches. That's all you can really do.

It's definitely hard to do that. At least, in my book it is. I try to take the good with the bad, but I'm usually stuck with mostly bad things. And I don't know why. I am one of those depressed individuals and it's hard to climb out of your negative space. I think if you try too hard to keep the negative issues away they'll just keep coming at you at full force. I guess it's just easier to accept things and try to find a balance between staying positive and being who you are.

It is not easy to take life as it comes,but I think it is the only way of happiness.I mean to say eternal happiness.If we accept our circumstances then we will remain happy.If we will happy then we make others happy. Why we become unhappy?when the people around us not reacting as we want than we become unhappy.Again for them we are not right people So who will change whom to become happy.So better take life as it goes on.

Well said and i also agree and once we start accepting life even during bad times and work hard more and more to get the better times again, we will enjoy life as sadness and happiness are part of everyone's story and we only have to accept it and move on with hope..that is life

Life can be like a rip tide, if you struggle against it you will wear yourself out. Go with the flow. Swim with the current until you are clear of the pull. "Acceptance is not submission: It is acknowledgement of the facts of a situation. Then deciding what you are going to do about it."

I feel that you have no choice but to take life as it comes. there is no use being bothered about why this should happen to me or it would have been better if it had happened that way. Then wat is the use of questioning the happenings in life? It is better to accept what life throws at us and move on

IF you accept life as it comes, you will be a happeier person. I learned this about 45 years into my life. Accept the things you can't do anything about and stop wasting time and energy on something you can't change. That is my motto. Some things are out of our control. We should focus on the things we can do something about. Learn from mistakes and move along. Keep a positive attitude and be grateful for what you do have and life will treat you better. It works for me!

Life is a struggle and it is not that one has to struggle and other one is well placed as if you look into veryone's life there is sadness, happiness, tensiosn,stress....problems..solutions all are equally distributed and one has to struggle a lot to move on keeping himself positive

Hi there alienstar! I do take life as it comes. I try to be prepared especially where our son's future is concerned but other than that, I rarely worry about things that I can do nothing about. I think that helps in making fun memories of each day and making the most out of life.

I tend not to take life as it comes. I am very much aware that good things and the things we want dont always just fall into our laps, we have to work for what we want, so no i dont think i do that, if im not happy with something i work to change it, sure if something good comes along then i make the most of it, but most of the time we make our own lives what they are it doesnt just happen.
