Life is beautiful! I know it and believe it but life is full of mysteries and challenges. I think the beauty of life lies in enjoying it,being happy and healthy. My philosophy of life is that there is no gain without pain. Life is worth living and enjoying. Any contrary opinion?

Simply put, in my opinion, Tennyson said it best: "The happiness of a man in this life does not consist in the absence but in the mastery of his passions."

simple question that have no right or wrong answer. it is a question that differs from each person. there is endless answers. it is a question that that you can only answer for yourself and can not answer for another person. for me what is life? life is experiences , cause and effect. life is sharing, learning, loving, thinking, dreaming, breathing, feeling, and being. life is what you make of it and what you control live your life not some one elses. to enjoy life all i need is control of my brain to make the choice to be happy. to control how i feel. we all have that ability. no one can choose how we feel. if someone cuts you off while driving you have a choice on if you will get mad or just keep driving and thinking about what you are doing. how i measure my success is easy. happiness. if i can go to sleep at night and not think about ok because of me this person is hurt. or because of me this person is not crying. then i have had a successful day. success to me is being able to sleep at night and to know i did the right thing in my heart and in my power for the day i had jsut finished out.

The measurement of success in the life is called happiness. If you are happy, if you are satisfied with yourself and the people around you, if you say you "like" the life then you are already sucessful.
