I'm just wondering...
Why stress yourself of working hard all your life, where would it lead you at the very end?

We were made to worship God, to yearn to be close to Him in fellowship, to learn to communicate, and to love. If your life feels like it is incomplete, or just plain wrong, it could just be that your relationship with God is non-existent, or suffering from neglect!

I think you've answered your own question. In other words, by asking the question, you have the desire to know. To WANT to know such things means you are trying to live your life in a way that makes you happy. Whatever that "way" is, go with it, within reason.
I expect that you want to set guidelines though. For example, stress at work: Knowing that it is a job that pays bills and only that may be a hint that you want a job change. If you look at work as a "stress factor" then that is normal. But if it is impacting your core essence of happiness, then analyze it and change it.
Hope that helps. You just need to apply that to all things. It's a life struggle though. Get ready for that.

Everyone makes their own choices in life, and life is what you make of it! If people are stressed they should do something to change it, unfortunately a lot of people like to moan about how hard done by they are, if they want to waste their life, it's up to them! If you lead a fulfilled life then I guess you'd die happy knowing you made the most of it!

That's another way of asking "what is the meaning of life".
Well, it means different things to different people, and in the end it is what you make of it. You are responsible for you.
In regards to working hard consider the the ant and grasshopper parable, where the ant who was lazy and all summer starved in the winter, and the grasshopper who stored food survived.
One might argue that they both die in the end, but the grasshopper probably didn't suffer as much.

Glad you are cute..
If you do not work, how will you eat? We are all a part of society, when and wherever we are born. The essence is in you, the creation is in you, you leave behind perhaps a legacy in your children. Stress comes with intelligence.

Live life to the fullest as every moment is precious.Try not to concern yourself with the inevitable.Live in the moment and don't take anything or anyone for granted.

Nowhere your right. But there are some things worth living through all the stress for. You have to find those things.

It's only your body that dies, hon. Your "self", your eternal, evolving soul, lives on. Every soul is sent here with its own work to do, and we all come many times as we have many lessons to learn and one lifetime isn't enough. You've been here before, and you'll be back again.

think from a different perspective. why work hard in life? why not live easy? why not get rid of anger and jealousy? if we can achieve that, then life will be easier to follow.
