What are the benefits of people being focused on other people's lives and rarely paying attention to their own lives? Does that mean that their lives aren't so intriguing? Could be. If we focus on the lives of others. We will miss out on the wonderful things that can happen in our lives. Their lives will control us when we're too in tuned with them. There's so many things to focus on and so much that life has to offer. There's nothing wrong with being curious about what goes in someone's life but we shouldn't make it our main focus. We have to live our own lives.

True,people who focus too much on other people$^s lives do not realize it if something is passing them by because they are so much concentrated on other people they forget to look their own.

It is nice to use this forum to hear how others are leading their lives but it is a hobby rather than essential or a necessity. It is better to lead your own life to the best rather than interfere in other peoples lives.

You're so right. There's life and shouldn't live our lives? Shouldn't we also live our lives as we see fit?

We should try to enjoy our lives and focus on the important things.

Very good advice as just recently a friend seems to be more interested in someone elses life than her own and it is showing up in her dealings with her family. She needs to focus more on her own family and let others deal with theirs.

Sometimes there is nothing exciting going on in our lives so its nice to see what others are up to or to be there for them in times of struggle.

There's nothing wrong with wanting to know how others are doing but being too involved in other people's lives isn't healthy.

There's something positive we can focus on.

That's awesome. Focusing on your family should be a priority. People should just allow others to live their lives.
