This has been inspired by a Discussion written by a Member asking "What is Life"
Life is not easy and it is not hard, the reason I say it is not hard is because I learned at the age 5 to deal with so many things my Childhood was taken away at the age of 5
The way I see Life is ..............what you make of it, are you going to fight or are you going to give up .............I fought and it was not easy but I fought my way through Life
For the last 10 Years I have been sick with Emphasimia and COPD and a few other Problems before that I rarely saw a Doctor was always active, worked
At the time I was devastated specially as I was bullied out of my Job after 8 years working there ...... I broke down a few times........my Marriage ended as I knew with this Illness I would not be able to cope with all that was going on in the Marriage
Anyway I fought and I know that I am grateful for what I have got ........My Son, My Daughter, Friends, Pets and Family
Life is a Challenge and you either take the Challenge or you ruin your Life
Always remember don't think about what you could have but be grateful for what you have got there are many People out there that have nothing and still take the Challenge of Life
The main thing in Life is to live it to the best of your ability
What do you think Life is about

First of all I have to say I am so sorry for all the struggles you have been through! Second, I applaud you for staying strong and fighting for all that matters!
Personally, I have no idea what life is all about. I mean I do agree that I live for my friend and family but I don't usually see the point of me being alive. I know that sounds quite morbid and depressing but it's true. I usually don't see the point in life in general really. If I didn't have family and friends....I don't really know what I would do.
Why else are we here? Work....then die.
True we can look at / visit amazing places on this beautiful world...well this beautiful world that is being destroyed by all of us humans. Other than that all we have is work.

Hello Gabs
I have a very simple approach to life today - Take it as it comes. There is nothing like a challenge or a bravery to fight the bad that life has given you. I am grateful to whatever I have been served in the past, and am thankful for whatever comes my way today. The more you start fighting the bad, the more it gets complicated. Accept whatever has happened - as there is nothing you can do about it. But do try your best to make the best of what you have at this moment coz there may be no next moment.

Life is definitely what you make it and you need to be grateful for what you have, me and my little family have been through a lot but I am so grateful for having them in my life x
