We have to enjoy life to the fullest!

Wherever we go, we have to enjoy life to the fullest. There are 5 reasons why we have to enjoy life to the fullest. They are as follows: 1) We don't know that tomorrow is the end of our lives, so in order for us not to get worried about what will happen for us in the future, we have to do something to make us feel ecstatic for everything we do as long as the actions are in accordance with the norms of living; 2) Our body needs nourishment internally and enjoyment externally just like food that we need to eat regularly in order to survive; 3) We have to prepare ourselves for spiritual knowledge or wisdom to recollect good things in life with regard to God's commandments and other glad tidings, including scriptures so that our souls won't put into outer darkness; 4) Do good deeds for the people or good things to people on earth by empathizing with them, and this is one of the tasks to feed ourselves with the world full of compassionate aids; 5) Drink, eat nutritious foods and deal ourselves with people who also interact with us temporally and spiritually.

Hello mate, I just don't get it on no.4, which preparing ourselves for god? As I know, some people including me are working so hard for living, trying to make a better life and enjoy it, but we just couldn't do it as we want. I trusted god, and end up I found that god doesn't treat everyone equal. There are people that have everything and enjoy their life while there are people who suffering in their life, just like living in darkness.

Thanks a ton for sharing this discussion. Yes u are absolutely right, life should always be lived to the fullest. in fact i try to follow one principle- live life as if u are the king or live life as i do not care who is the king. So whatever may be the case we should always stay cheerful and happy so that positivity is always maintained in our lives. This will help us to move ahead in spite of challenges and difficulties in life. What say?

I agree with you. Life is too short to live it half heartedly. We must give it all we have. We should view each day of our life as precious because there are thousands of people who are fighting to live theirs. Whether they are fighting a war, trying to find food, or fighting an illness. These individuals value life and want to live it.

Life can only be enjoyed if you have: a home (not have to leave outside on the street in winter time for example in Russia where it's -25 or worse freezing at the moment), if you have food (many people don't), if you have money (many people don't). It's useless to do good to others if you have nothing to share or die for hunger yourself. No matter if you don't know if you die tomorrow, in one week or month or year or 10 years.. it's impossible to enjoy the fullest if your daily life is: how to survive.

Agreed, we want to have a purpose for living and the world we live in should be seen as though we were looking through a child's eyes. Everything we see, the flowers, trees, animals should be viewed as though we were seeing it for the first time. The wonders of the world should never cease to amaze us. Our food should make us feel healthy and alive, so we ought to be eating the foods that were meant to make us feel this way, healthy and vibrant with a lot of energy as though we were sunflowers shooting up from the ground. We need compassion, empathy, kindness towards others so we can build our own self esteem. We will want to help those who need it even if the help we offer is as small as giving those people a smile, a glimmer of hope, for their knowing that surely someone cares. We should wet our palettes with water as we feed our gardens with water. Yes, I agree with these five things you have mentioned here and more. Happy day to you.

C'est vrai! It all depends on the paths that you are heading...to enjoy yourself to the fullest. Make sure that you won't choose the path that gives you self-destruction, but choose the best path that leads you to eternal life.
