The Best Thing in Life

Life - Life is the best gift from our creator. Without life, we do not exist here today. We must treasure life, learn from it, and live it to the fullest.

Some claim money is the best thing in life. Others said it is fame or our family or our career, love, and many more. Each of us has his/her own opinion with regards to this thing. What is the best thing in your life?

The best thing in life for me is my family. Without them I don't know how will I ever survived. Love comes next, career, and money. We can;t say money isn;t important because it is actually important - it is really hard to live without it because this is how we live now. Everything has to be paid and involves money. But I am happy that my family is always with me in my success and trials. I won't include fame in my list

How nice, you love your family so much. Always take care of them. Always bring them happiness and shower them with love. It is really hard to survive without our family. I love my family so much too. They serve as my inspiration in life.

The best thing in life is to have money.Then everything else will come to you ,you can buy love,friends,fame and everything else. Of course no one will love you for who you really are,they will all love your money but they don`t love you for who you really are anyway

No i have never encountered a rich but unhappy person but i`ve seen thousands of poor and unhappy people and we all know they are billions.So money is everything .It may not be true if you are a monk and you really discovered the divinity but for normal people like you or me money is everything.Sad but true.

Had you ever encountered a rich but unhappy person? They have so many money but why are they sad. Is money still the best thing in life?

Okay, though money for me is not everything. Even though I have lots of money, I still cannot find happiness in it. Now, I admit it to myself, money has its own limitations.

People have their own preferences so they differ in their likes and dislikes as well as how they look at the best things in life. But for me , it's definitely my family, my husband, my daughter and my family when i was still single. They are what makes me happy. Just being with them, laughing, sharing stories or simply watching DVDs or simply talking already makes me happy and say that they are the best thing in my life.

I also believe that a family that always go to church together, becomes very close indeed. The children grows up so close to their parents and are God fearing. Of course, the parents should always have the hand in reminding the children to always have a prayer time in their life.

Yes, a single moment together with his/her family can be considered as a great treasure in a person's life. We must never fail to keep in touch with our family. Let us do our best give them happiness and peace. Let us shower them with love.

i believe the we have different kinds of opinions,thought that comes up in our mouth..and from the heart.. For me,money will not satisfy my whole life,wealth,treasures and any worldy things..But only the Lord Jesus Christ who showered a blessings for me in my daily life.. God satisfys me through blessings every day,His grace,mercy,and protection ns..And even in the hard times God did is my comfort and not the wealth or any..thank you..

Yes, God is indeed the supreme being. Without Him, our existence here on earth will not be possible. He is the source of our strength, the reason why we surpass our endeavors. Without him, we are all but nothing. We must always praise Him and pray to Him.

The best thing in my life is being with my family and friends. They are indeed the beautiful people that makes my life so wonderful. I do appreciate their presence because they are always with me no matter what. I am not that responsible daughter and a good friend but I always try my best to be that person. They are the reason why I am doing great things in life. I wish I could reach the dreams of my family. And I hope that we would always be together with my friends though they are too busy now with their different careers in life.

We must indeed treasure our family and friends. We must appreciate their existence. I really love and care to my family and friends so much. I want them to become happy always. I seize every moment when I am with them. They are all blessings from God to me.

Great that you do love them so much. I hope that we could have a good life with them. It's good to know that you too are surrounded with supportive family and humble friends. I just can't help thinking what my friend told me once, it is so touching to know if your family cares for you like a friend and your friends understand you like your family. Always value them so that they would know how much you valued them.

I would say for me the best thing in my life is my daughter. She is one of the best thing in my life she makes me and my husband so very happy to have in our life. With out her I don't know if we would be as happy as we are.

The circle of friends and family I think would be the best thing you have. They really need to be something that is rather good because when the chips are down, you really need all of the backup that you really can get. Life is going to be low at many times but if you don't have a good support network, things are going to bad. Far worse than they would ever be at any time that you might in fact have a good support network. Money is needed to live a comfortable life. But really only just enough to live a comfortable life. There are going to be many times where money is really going to be rich but miserable. And any friends you might have, could be just there for a hand out. So yeah the support network that you have around the world. There is really nothing that is more important than that. That is the fact of the matter.

Right! That is why we must always have an utmost connection with our family. We must never fail to check if they are all right, if what are their problems and difficulties. Blood is always thicker than water. Whatever happens, our family is always there to support and guide us.

I do not agree on money. You all know that there are things that you can not buy, and there is no need to list.
• Philippines

Yes, money cannot buy all the things in the world. Money cannot buy true happiness.

Life is all about timing... the unreachable becomes reachable, the unavailable become available, the unattainable... attainable. Have the patience, wait it out It's all about timing.” “Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”

Yes, life is all about timing. If we want to achieve our ambitions, we must work hard, do our best and believe in our own hands. We should not forget to embed these three most valuable weapons: the knowledge, the learning, and the values. We must use them for our advancement and success.

It may sound cliche but really...the best things to happen in my life are: (1) when I met and married my husband, and (2) when I became pregnant and when my daughter was born into this world. I could not comprehend this when I was still single and I used to wonder what the big deal is about having a family. But now that I am a housewife and mother, I truly "get" it now.

That is so sweet and wonderful. Having your own family is hard but rewarding. God bless to you and your family.

well so many depends their happiness to material things, money etc... but for me I believe that the best things are those I can get for free, like love of my family, and the happiness that they bring to my life...coz money and any material things can be taken away from you anytime, but your family will remain and even if they're already passed away the memory is still there, so it still gives us happy feeling when remembering those.

Yes, there is so much happiness also that my family brought to my life. I love my family so much and I will never trade them for something. I am also happy to see them smiling.

Right now I don't know what to say I am stuck a bit. Well to think it would be the best choice if I choose family and the rest will follow. When you are raised in a good family you can gain good friends, strong relationship which we might not know, good career if possible and a pure being. ^_^
