Hi fellow lots,
Sometimes I wonder whether enjoying life is only about being 'free' from all worries. To me, happiness is not about money or wealth but being able to live-up and share laughter with your love ones or close friends. How many of you feel the same way and what does it mean to you - enjoying life?

For me, enjoying life means spending quality time with my family. Ya, it's not really about having so much money. Also, enjoying life, for me, can also mean having problems and being able to solve those problems. Facing challenges makes life more enjoyable for without challenges life can be dull.

I would hate to have no money, for money makes life so much more comfortable and being free from worries is a surefire way to be able to enjoy life. However, I also enjoy those special moments with my loved ones where money does not come in the picture. I can say I have seen billionairs living a crushed life, inspite of having money, fear all the time for their loved ones being kidnapped etc. So at least we are better off, for we can sleep without worry, Id just like to have enough money to make two ends meet and save a l ittle. Cheers.

Hi, pob! Welcome to Mylot.
It would be nice not to worry about money. To be able to live each day without worrying about the bills and to be able to travel with over loved ones wherever we want to go. However, having not enough money should not prevent us from looking at our loved ones and appreciating the time we spend together. It can be two hours of watching a good movie at home or one hour of eating home-cooked meal together. Enjoying life, with or without money, means being with the people I like to be with and doing things together.
Have a nice day!

To me, enjoying life means doing what you want to do with nothing stopping you. That doesn't mean being rich but for some people it does. Someone can be the richest person in the world but at the same time feel cold and lonely inside. I think enjoying life means being loved and being around loving people who make you laugh and are there for you. Sometimes though, people can be alone and explore life on their own. Although they may feel lonely at times, they can be at one with nature.
