does really life matters to anyone

I do totally agree with you Megh. We all should not run only for wealth, need a bit more focus on how we feel this world. Thank you very much for sharing such a nice thoughtful idea! Michael http://www.eagleeyesecuritycameras.com

It just seems like there are just a lot of people who just exist. They don't merely live, they just exist or they don't think past the next ten minutes of their lives. I think that the lack of thought towards the future is going to be something that is going to really sabotage a lot of the people to say the very least. And we never seem to have enough. Those people never think what will happen if they lose their job or if all of the money that they might have, evaporates. That is the problem, we tend to really be unable to distinguish between what we want and what we need. Therefore, life tends to be a rather shallow and quite not really live their lives to the fullest extent. Frustration to the highest degree exists.

Some people just don't take life seriously, as though it is a given that they will wake up everyday and continue their pursuits. What most matters in life doesn't have a price tag on it. Friendship, love and laughter have no dollar value but all make life worth living. Really, in the end, do the people who disregard the true meaning of life want to be remembered for all their assets? I am glad to know different.

Now that I have surprisingly approached 62 years of age last year, I realize I look at life in a whole new picture. Income was a priority to me after my daughter married. I worked at my business and bought what I wanted for me or others. Then, after losing loved ones several times in very short time periods, I see that the people around me are more important than what I can get. I am now living my life for people I care about who need me. I will be provided for, so I can help others. My life has been put at a halt for now, but that's okay.

I think we all want to live our life, to enjoy it. But if we are raised like a kid or teenager we are told we have to be someone. We have to study hard, find a good job, pay/take care of our family etc. Society, government they all want money from us as soon as we start working. So we work to pay all the bills. There is no time to live anymore, unless you break free and don't care about the society anymore. Most of us will discover way too late that they wasted their life with just working and paying off..they forget they once had a dream or that their dream (great carreer) is useless at the moment they loose their job or get retired.

Yes people who live in poor country understand what hard live is like..the richer country people who enjoys much don't know what is suffering is...some times I see people wasting food just like that
