Forget about philanthrophy, forget about values, forget about what should, what should not, what had what had not been - just YOU and YOUR LIFE. For me it's like: 'Life is short, break the rules, forgive quickly, kiss slowly, love truly, laugh uncontrollably, and never regret anything that made you smile.' Love and hugs.

my dear dear friend...I am so impressed and touched..you are a poet indeed!!wish I could read something more written by you..As far as myself is concerned..until "yesterday" life was love..the love I seeked, the love that poisoned me, the love that deceived me again..now life is a constant research..research of peace, of quietness, maybe of happiness..and research of a little warm place for me in this universe!!

I know, how passionate you are with writing and your life as well. I believe one has to love life in order to put those thoughts on paper and you are just excellent in this. Good luck. Love and huggles.

Dear maribea, These words are not mine, I got it from somewhere. I am not much of a poet. Sweetie, I cannot relate more with you. Do not know why, but it has happened time and again that I have found a mirror image in you. You are so like me - cannot express how it feels. Thanks dear. Love and hugs always. MISS YOU.

i love writing to you my dear and I hope we can become closer friends as days passing by. Writing is natural for me and sometimes writing to a kindred spirit makes it more valuable and a sort of perfection!!!!

Life is like a journey, the destination is not known. For me it is an interesting journey, which always have some high speed movement, some pitfalls, some breakdowns, somehurdles, but it is the feeling one has to make the journey interesting despite all short comings. Iti s a memorable journey and record it, so that someone can read and get some tips to make their life even more interesting!!

I did not coin the sentences to mesmerize you or other mylotians. Just free flow from mind of the thoughts which I am fond of.

Love and you - How to be in love
I agree with you that Life is really short, time gallops and you never know how many days and years you have spent on this earth, till you see others calling you uncle and aunty LOL! I hesitate to break the laid down rules. I forgive quickly, with any second thought. Kissing slowly is not possible, kissing should have passion in in. Love you should be honest and true always. I laught unconrallably, whenever I can that too at the top of my voice ....LOL! I never rerget in my life for any of my decisions and always try to see the positive side of life. Very well written. Have a nice day! Deepak

Well said, Deepak, I really appreciate. I know, how hard you can laugh and i know how forgiving you are and I know how beautiful you are as a human being. So, I know you live life in your own terms, without harming and hurting others. May be, you are not adventurous but you are a sweet kind who would shelter and calm the hurts of friends. Thanks for being my friend.

Hi mimpi911! For me life is short too especially when I am in my happiest moments. Life can be cruel and kind all at once but life is something I wish to travel unselfishly with love and smiles. Take care and have a nice day.

i liked so much those words you wrote here.they fit so well to my view about life.i would like to live my life following these words...i need so much the courage to do it.i feel that life is so short and i am so cobard,sometimes i am too afraid of doing something i would like to do.i would like to break the rules,that's the proper word...there are many rules that don't let me express what i feel and don't let me behave as i would like to. maybe i have a kind of depression now,but i know that until i won't be satisfied with my life,this depression will reappear again and again

You are so very right andrejuly. I am going through the same plight as you are and at times when things get terribly down, I would utter these words loudly. Kind of feel better. I just hope you get over it soon. God bless. Be happy always and follow your heart. smiles....

For me: life is short, art is long. We have too many things to learn and we have too many things to enjoy. Thus, live well, laugh often and love much. We must try our best to live to the fullest. We must be happy and have a positive attitude towards life. Life to us is supposed to be full of laughters and love. We are supposed to love everyone around us without any hatred.

Lifes is... -a roller coaster ride. -it's like a bus that if u miss it, the driver won't come back for you. -it's off the hook, sometimes. -it's like a season, when it is winter(cold) spring- rain (crying moments) summer (hot) fall ( falling of emotions) like the leaves falling over my head coz fall begins where I'm standing. well, life is good. I totally enjoy it.

for me life is full of surprises. you really don't know what will come tomorrow or in the next few minutes. and with this, you have to be flexible and more open to possibilities. you have to be strong enough to face not-so good surprises and be enjoy the happy surprises. you have to be prepared. although we want to plan things out ahead, some things still don't work the way we wanted them to be. so, be ready! there are surprises coming along!

It sounds too selfish. While enjoying life it is still possible to be philanthrophic, retain values, no need to brake the rules. Values build our character, rule are required to retained civilised nature of the society otherwise we would become more like animals.

Life for me is getting up everyday thanking to be alive and going to bed everyday thanking that I got thru another day. If that day had laughter in it then it was worth fighting for it.
