How many of us can say we really enjoy life? Now think about this before you answer, because when I say enjoy this can mean lots of things. Just the everyday things in life, do we over look them or embrace them?

I embrace every moment of every day but I really do not ever get to enjoy life at all. I work seven days per week right now because there are things we have to buy and pay for and we are also trying to get ready for my husband to retire in eleven more years. We don't have time to enjoy life right now but I hope we both do some day soon.

I enjoy life I just don't enjoy my particular life at this moment. There are just too many hurdles to have to go through, and as I age the hurdles become much harder.

Hi there,
I feel, all through our lives we get ready, we get ready to prepare to live the hurdles in life. Our childhood passes by preparing for a good youth which again flies while ensuring a good future. Then comes preparation for professional settlement and personal. we get married then again we keep preparing for a better future for our kids and we wait for old age when we hope to enjoy life. But that day never comes and before we could realise we are dome with!
We forget that this hurdle is but life and we gotta live it with high spirit!
Thanks.

You could not possibly have time to enjoy life if you work 8 hours a day... and spend the rest of your time trying to make money on the internet.
In order to enjoy life...
You need to take "Time out" and stop everything.
Enjoying life is about doing nothing and appeciating what you got. If you keep wanting more... you won't have time to enjoy your life.
Enjoying life is not about taking a trip around the world and running your legs off to try to see the whole world in four weeks. And coming back home totally exhausted... havind to start to work on Monday... for another 12 months... until the next trip.

I can say that I try to enjoy life everyday. Even when something goes wrong I think of all that I have to be thankful for. I normally take a walk or just enjoy the evening sitting outside listening to the birds, watching my squirrels play and just enjoying the outdoors. Even when the weather doesn't permit it I enjoy the small things, after all it's the small things that count.
