A Journey or a Challenge?

hi lilangelspreschool , so hard you name . life is both , to a man life is a challenge some kind of it but for a women life is journey some kind of it saying just like you do . that is name a choice of life what for we are life in this world to make a journey or challenge . you know why i saying some kind man saying this life is challenge because the man always want to do hard way in this world like boxing , football , ice ski , climbing mountain , any hard to do wakakakakakakakakaaaa but tome is the greating ever do to we are as a man ! all the journey just for women because alot of women like shoping and traveling.

I think both of you got it right. Life is a challenge because everyday we are struggling. Life is also a journey because we face problems everyday. We can never really tell what life is. All i know is that living a life is complicated. It is hard to explain.

It is a very subjective question which differs from person to person.Everybody has his own notion and definition. According to me life is a journey and during the journey we face different situations: some good some bad and the real challenge is to overcome the difficult times in a patient manner. Life is like a roller coaster and the real traveler is the person who wins all challenges of life with courage and determination.

I think that life is indeed a journey. it is filled with good times, bad times, joys, sorrows, and trials. The challenge could be in how we approach the road ahead of us.

More and more, I am reluctant to embrace any single notion that might encapsulate life. Ideas life 'journey' too often get used in spirituality or religion as a way of keeping us from facing the full challenge of life. The metaphor of journey suggests that everything ultimately has a meaning, e.g. that pain helps us to grow. I have seen too many people be crushed by the pain to accept such a view of life. At the same time, I don't think it is simply a challenge either. The bottom line, for me at least, is that I do not know what it is, and try to remain open to that with all of the positive and negative possiblities that implies.

I agree with you. Life is a journey and on our journey we face many challenges. The outcome of these challenges are what make us who we are as a person. This may sound crazy, But even the bad choices we make and the consiquence of our bad choces are invaluable.

I would come into the discussion in favor of life being a journey. We all are headed somewhere. Yes, there are many challenges on that journey, some sad, some exciting and happy challenges. If life were just one challenge we would be more or less stuck in place.

I believe that life is a journey and none of us know how long it is going to last. We know the past, the present we are finding out about and the future is a mystery. It is just like a journey and there might be some challenges along the way for some people. Some times in life things can be wonderful but every now and then matters could occur which are miserable. Mostly life is happy but it can have a few downs. Maybe your friend had faced many challenges.

I'm with you on this one. Life is a journey in which we face challenges along the way rather than being a challenge in itself. Huggles. Ellie :D

hi lilangelspeschool I have yet to see any journey that does not have a few challenges and I think life is a journey with a heckof a lot of challenges starting with falling in love, marriage, kids, losing a mate,facing old age with health issues and not crumbling under them'its a real challenge as I just learned that my left eye is pretty bad with macular degeneration and a cataract. the eye doctor says that removing the cataract will not help my vision in that eye. but my right eye is still pretty good, so am getting new glasses.Learning to live with diabetes and and all the stuff thatgoes with it, yes all are challenges but at least on can face them one at a time.So it is a journey with hopefully that happy ending in heaven. I do believe so pretty I will get there one day.

I think that our life is a journey in which we have many challenges. If we fallow what our heart is saying to as then we can enjoy this life journey, but if we limit ourself with different material things like money, property, people, then our life stays static and we can't to experience life as a journey. We are standing at one point or better would be say that we are turning around all the time. We woke up in the morning and go to job, after this we come back to home, watch TV and go to sleep. And this rite we practice every day. What kind of journey can be so tiresome and uneventful? In this routine we can see only challenges nothing more. The evil powers (political authorities etc.) which control or try to control all the world, try to make all humans as static figures, which will do everything what they say, so people start to lose the feeling of their life as journey. But in true - life is so wonderful journey, which we must to enjoy and live with love!

I'm with you on this one. Life is indeed a journey and we face challenges and or rewards in every turn we do or direction we choose. I won't say that life is a challenge because if it's just a challenge we should have all been born matured and with an open mind to take the challenge from the start onwards but it isn't the case for us all. By that observation I say life isn't a challenge at all but a journey full of challenges and fruitful rewards

Hi angel, In my point of view.... Life is journey for those who compromises with. And is challenge for those who fight for reaching their goals. I myself feel life is both.. I compromise when i feel helpless n will try to over come that situation which made me helpless... Happy Mylotting... :)

Life is a big war and the most decisive battle is fought against ourselves as they say "He who conquers himself has conquered all" So just be prepared for the big war .

hello lilangelspreschool! i believe that life is basically a journey which we take either by walking it through or breezing by, and along the way we face a lot of challenges which we either overcome or just ignore, depending on the choices we make. On the other hand, your friend is partly correct because if we really ponder about it, life is a challenge indeed, a challenging journey for everyone of us.. from that journey, we make or break our self, our life. So many had even surrendered to this challenge and kill themselves, cutting short their journey, for reasons they only can fathom..

I agree on you that it is a journey where we encounter challenges. Both of you has a point, you and your friend actually collates the idea of how life is, it's just a matter of how the two you see and present things, but all in all, you will both arrive at the same thought. I believe that in this journey, we are being presented to many challenges that hone us into a stronger individual. Once we surpass the challenges along the way, we arrive to our common aspiration of having the happiness we all long for...
