I learned a rare lesson - no matter who you are, read this.

It doesnt matter to the society whether u live long or die tomorrow what matters is your contribution to society living life just for yourself is very selfish just my opinion though

I disagree that a lot of 80 year olds would be offended - it's simply an observation that I'm vocalising! Also, if they want to carry on enjoying what hey have, why not give them more years (even decades more)? Then they can enjoy it a lot more!

You say that not everyone wants to live that long - I would say that, as you grow older, you'll realise they do. I've made this topic because I've felt it first hand and it's really bad - I used to feel something like you do - then I learned this, and it's heartbreaking.

I'm not telling you you shouldn't ride around on motorbikes and eat pizza, I'm just telling you that from experience you'll enjoy yourself much more if you live longer and healthier - 120 years of enjoyment VS 80? The maths are simple! And even then, what about 80 years of bliss VS 80 years of contentedness? We can get these things if we try.

You disagree on things that I've been told by the people you're claiming to speak for... to be honest, I stopped reading there.

I'm very sorry you feel you've wasted your life. But don't take it upon yourself to tell other people how to live theirs.

I don't disagree exactly, I just feel that it's not 'alot' and more like 'a few' or 'some'.

I don't feel that I've wasted my life. I've enjoyed my life big time and every day I feel like I'm in heaven on Earth - and I want to enjoy it for as long as possible.

I see what you're saying, however I feel you've misunderstood me - it would only be right to tell people how to enjoy themselves even more!

It's most of the people I've spoken to.

No, I haven't. I've understood you entirely: you've worked your **** out finally and want everyone else to feel like you. But it isn't a gospel to be preached, it's something which - if people want to learn it - people need to learn for themselves.

And that is the life lesson that's most important: the horse has already been led to the water. It's the horse's place to drink, not yours to hold its head under.
