With all the problems that are going on around the world, how do you enjoy life? The way I see things, people have no other recourse but to pray. While the others just shrug it off and let it pass by without doing anything. I think letting it pass due to uncontrollable situations make matters worse. What do you think?

You are right. With all the things going wrong in life it’s hard to enjoy. Just today I read in the paper that the Somali alshabab bombed a church in garissa and killed 17 people. It’s very sad that even when you are praying it is unsafe. I agree with you

If I have problems, I can still enjoy life. We can enjoy life even we're full of problems. We just have to relive and relinquish each minute of our lives. Sometimes I enjoy my own problems. I enjoy solving it on my own, sometimes, I pray for help. But solving our problems, it gives me hope and excitement because I know that after finishing a problem, life will be lighter.

Of course everyone had problems in their life, because that's the way we learn to live, from experience. But every person manage their problem differently, that's why some people find life very hard, and some other are not. It's all depend on our mind. If we put our problems as the center of our life, then we won't be able to see how we could enjoy life. Be positive, try to see things around us differently, then somehow you'll find that there are a lot of things that we could be thankful for.

Yes, I find it very difficult to enjoy my life. May my ability is not insufficient. Sometime I choose to get it pass by without doing anything. But I found it wouldn't make me happy. On the contray it would make me unconfident to handle that situation again.

Hi! There is nothing permanent in this world. Every phase passes away. Just count your blessings and keep moving ahead. Life is like a river and it keeps flowing every second, there is no stoppage as such. If we keep telling our mind that we are happy and we are 'enjoying', our mind will keep positive signals and will start giving us happy feelings from inside. If we could channelize our mind towards positivity, enjoyment could not be far away.

Enjoy life by believing that everyday is a gift from above,by thanking Him for all the blessings. That we must not worry about what will happen next to us. Value life by being happy living with it and when no matter what challenges were going through just stay happy because everything has its purpose.

I find it difficult to enjoy it, it has too many problems in it for me anymore. Not sure if that's due to me getting older or what but I'm just so tired of things that others do and how they act. I'm not sure if praying could help, I'm a true believer in it normally, but some things are just a lost cause. I wish I could restore the faith I used to have by praying for everything, I will still try to though. I'm just having a hard time of it when so many things happen that are annoying, saddening, etc.

Well, my focus is always the solutions, for whatever problems I have. People usually waste too much time and energy focusing on the problem and in most occasions they won't simply move away. I enjoy life simply by doing my daily stuff and seeing my same old friends.
