Do you Enjoy Life

Do you enjoy the little sorrows and joys that life tosses at you every now and then or do you sulk and retrieve into your shells once Dismay or sorrow strikes. I think it is important for people to live life to the maximum and enjoy every pain and sorrow that comes ones way without involving themselves too much in tragedies that take over their life. This is a very tough habit to maintain but wise in the long run. Can you share how lives ups and downs have made led you to living life to its fullest, what inspired you and how do you maintain this habit.

I like to focus on the present because it is a gift. I only like to think of positive things from the past. I like to consider how to progress in the future. I remember 'it is always dark before it is dawn'. I also think 'the optimist and the pessimist have the same journey but the optimist has the better time. I have a new baby daughter that I adore. I am so lucky and mostly I enjoy my life.

Hi, Maximax9, "i like to focus on the present because it is a gift" ,i like it! i am optimist in my bond. i realize that life is full of surprise, some are rough ,and others maybe happiness , and they are make of my life. i support that idea, when you are in a hard time ,try your best to be tolerance, thinking the nice thing ever in your life . and when you are in the happy time , just try your best to stand the other foot and try yourself to do them a favor, meanwhile , enjoy your happiness time ! Still remembering after i graducated from my college, my goal is to enroll the LINER MAERSK , i study very hard and to cope with a series of interview , at the end , i passed! i was accepted by MAERSK , at that time it is really means to me , i am touched . there are three people in classe to passed and employed .and i am one of them. but at the end of the bodycheck , i am failed. it's really a big strike for me . some time i thought , why the god is unfair to me, but this strike cant defeat me . i am indomitable . i pick up myself and make my chin up , i promise to myself , i am the prefect person and would not easy to defeated. now i found another job , although it's not as famous as M , But i like it , and i will try my hard to make a further progress. sometime , trust yourself: you are the one and you can make it!

I enjoy life! Even if there are tough times. Like now when I'm in the position of looking for a job, it can get really stressful. But still I enjoy the process. Every second of this life we spend only once, so why not make the most out of it.

I love to deal with stuff the world throws at me. Things that are hard is more easy to deal with because I know that this will help me grow more quickly than anything else in the world.

I try to live and enjoy life as it comes whether is good or bad because I think everything happens for a reason. Sometimes in moments like now when I really don't know what I want to do career wise and can't get a job, I try to give my best and still try to find a way to make things better. I used to think everything happened to me and no one else, which it's dumb because I have it much better than many other people. Sometimes you just have to stop and think that you are not the only one who suffers, and there are many people out there who would like to have atleast half the life you have. So always stay positive, and give others a hand. Atleast that is what I try to maintain in my life.

I would say that I enjoy life greatly, even in the bad times I learn something new and come out of it a stronger person. I would never take my own life as I love living, we are only here once so it does not make sense to me to throw that away. Everything inspires me in life. I know some people get in a bit over their heads and feel the need to get away forever, but they really need to hold on and live through it.

I think everyone in their life has had a life were you do run into bad things along the way, but those bad things that come along the way can either make or break a person. It is sometimes hard to stay strong, but sometimes you need to. I have experienced some tough things this year, the worst by far was the break up of two years with my ex boyfriend and from that experience with him i have learned so much and gained from how he treated me and now i am living life like i should be. I am living life that is great and not having so much stress as before and love every minute of my life with my friends and new boyfriend.

I enjoy life whether in sorrows or in joy, I have learnt how to accept both in life and to move further with the experiences we get in life, I take fun in small things around me and I do not think too mich about people who think only bad for others, I think about what I can do in my life, for myself, my family, for my love ones in life and for those who need my help in life.

Very interesting. I agree, i think it is healthy that people live up to the good times in life as much as the bad. As much as it hurts, i keep my head high through the tough times. I find things to keep my mind away while still sewing up the problem and getting over it. Friends pull me through and i think it is great to have someone by your side too. It is good to keep in mind that every cloud has a silver lining, we just have to wait for it to show. Keep smiling!(:

You are right to say that people should live life to the maximum and should enjoy every pain and sorrow. Our lives are short and what don't we cry , worry, and become unhappy ? We should try to make our life more enjoyable , happier and at the same time to help other people to be happy too.
