Is the struggle off everyday life worth it?

do the good memories wipe away the bad ones?

Would you not rather die for a reason or a cause at your full glory and grace?than simply dying at the age off ninety in a old shabby room which you hadn't left for a full two weeks with too much fear to leave in case something happens urinating in endless amounts off bottles and shiting in paper bags?The stories and truths that are in our world make a long life sound horrid.

imagine it.
put yourself in that place.
think off it as i do.

Is the daily-life stress,pain and suffering enough to drive you to your grave?

Is it all worth it?

Is the struggle off everyday life worth it? Well, that's up to you! You can be positive or negative about anything, life included - it's all a state of mind. Your outlook makes the here and now heaven or hell.

All I know is that it's worth it to me. But just think this - if there were no downs, how would we recognise the ups? If there was no night, how would we recognise the dawn? Sure life has it's sh*tty bits, but it also has it's wonders.

So stop thinking of a miserable future and start looking for things about you that make you happy in the present. Work on it for a few weeks and you may well find the world a very different place from your imaginings.

That is part of the human cycle, we begin as babies and end up acting like toddlers oncemore and as long as you live, you cannot run away from that.
Everyone goes through this cycle, so there is no need to sound despondent bells as life is what we make of it. We were once teenagers, full of ambition and drive and living for the day and not caring about tomorrow. Then we went through our first romance and our first income generating job. In going through all these stages we will be saying that life is sweet but the taste of sweetness doesn't last forever as fate has a say in the outcome of our destiny.
So, instead of moaning about the unfairness of this God-given life, let us rejoice and be grateful to what we've managed to do in life; the wonderful and horrible people we've met, the distances we've travelled and yes, the marvellous endearvours being made by the medical people in sustaining those who still cherish life.
Despite the difficulties we go through, we should never be despondent and yes, all this pain is worth it because you cannot imagine a life without pain as the daily toil knows no discrimination.

When you are old and on the verge of dying, you will understand that life is worth the struggle. The good memories do wipe out the bad ones. There has been times in my life when I really felt that I couldn't go on, but i'm glad i'm here now. So cheer up, it won't always be like this. Yes it is all worth it.

Yes, it is all worth it.
You get out what you put in.
Spend time nurturing friendships and making new ones. Enjoy love and friendship - they are worth more than any money could buy. When you are of an old age then your life will be a tapestry of what you've put in over the years and if you've lived well then you will have plenty of friends and family around and not be isolated in a shabby room etc. etc.

I have thought about it. Yes, life is worth it, especially, if you can get what I'm trying to say) when you see it all for what it really is. I suffer every day, trust me, but I still find great joy: bare feet grounded into the deep grass, fingers in the soil, the taste of pomegranates, the smell of a baby's sweaty neck... yes, to me it is worth it. I think sometimes unrealistic expectations or desiring too much and not stopping to notice what is in front of us does ruin the pleasure of life. it is good to keep it simple.

I think if you can sit down, in that state or any other and smile - saying you have done what you have set out to do, you have lived your life to the fullest and gained all there is to be gained...that you are satisfied with everything that has happened in your life up to this day - and regardless of whatever circumstances you are in at the moment you have lived to the best of your ability....then yes i would say it's worth it..

Art of living is the art of giving. What is life if lived for self?
Its the struggle that makes the life worth living.
And its you who have to decide to make the effort to make it worth it, whereas so many people make the effort to make it worthless.
Otherwise why is it that people who win the lottery still do not leave their menial paid jobs?

Sometimes it's the monotony of day to day living that teaches us the most. Wisdom and experience are usually learnt over time.

Die for another is glorious

Live for others that too is noble.

To live or die for ones self is shallow and meaningless.
