Yeah life is worth living, after all the hardship that I've been through, I reap the fruits of it and that is happiness and fulfillment. Even when it seems all my effort will end up and gone the moment I least expect, but I'm happy and given all the best that I have. Life is not about getting, but it's all about giving that makes life worth living.

Reading at your discussions made me smile its because I can say I have a very bad relationship with my in laws for treating me rudely & sometimes it made me feel depress on the brighter side is I have a very good husband "sometimes" even if his lifestyle is like a bachelor. Anyway inspite of all the pains, hearthaches, sadness I have felt in the pass but still I can say it is really worth living I cannot described it well but only one thing I am sure I am thankful to be given a chance to live in this life. Even if it is not as I wanted to have.

I think that most people, even if they won't admit it out loud, would like to live a different life if they had the chance to because as I know, Man can never be satisfied with whatever he or she possesses and in the process of achievimg satisfaction, one will generate problems which then makes one's life miserable at one point, hence regret will be present and the wish of having another life different from the current situation gotten into. Bt if we learn to be satisfied in whatever we hae, to recognize the blessings no matter hoow small, to be grateful to any event life has given, to look things at the brighter side, and to appreciate the everyday wonders of life then we can say life is really worth living.
