Yeah we've all heard this saying before, but has anybody actually done it? Where you just kinda, slow down and actually appriciate life?
 
I usually don't, but there are those times when I'm just thinking, and I realize how important my family is, how lucky I am to have (fill in the blank), etc. I really should think about it more often than I do. :)

yea, i have.
Family vacations, an occasional school day, when my friend died. have you?
Yeah. I never realized how good it feels to make someone laugh or smile before that.
 

jeez, I love to make my friends laugh, and the occasional blonde moment that gets my family laughing together. This is my older brother's last year at home b4 he goes to college and I know even though we have our differences and fight l'm still gonna miss his criticism, jokes, and sarcasm.

Your av works for this. :rotfl:
 
Everyday. Tomorrow isn't a promise. I've had several close friends/family members die suddenly, and I have been very seriously injured. I live everyday like it could be the last. it just might be.
 
I do....sometimes it has positive results, and I realize how wonderful my life is...and sometimes I realize how awful the world is, and how awful I feel about my life :confused3 Depends on my mood I guess
 
i really need to start, life is going way to fast right now, and i need to slow down, because you never know when it can end...
 
um......................................................................... nope probally not but maybe when I'm out of college I might :rotfl:

Watch you get hit by a bus tomorrow.
 
Well, It's pretty odd that you haven't...

I appreciate my life so much, and same with my family..

But..some people appreciate fall out boy more than their family and their own life
Aw well, that's their problem

you know I was just joking... gosh you don't have to get all uptight
 
actually- appreciating music is very good. music evolves you and can inspire you. so if youre into music, you can stop and just ponder about it. and how it changes you. i think thats good enough for someone of her age to think about, actually.

on my own self, i do it all the time. i mean, you guys are talking about being thankful for everyday, being alive, appreciating what good and bad things have happened to you. which i do, of course, but everytime i go outside, no matter if ive been there 100 times before, i always stop and look around, 1 more time. to see the sunlight through the trees or the way the rain falls off that one section of the roof gives me this odd relaxed or euphoric feeling. i guess thats just the writer in me.

Same here....I think about how great my life is...but then I think of all the horrible things that go on and how the world could be a better place if we could all just get along.... :confused3 But it just depends on what day and mood for me.

Thst is exactly what I was going to say... After a couple of my family members died suddenly around the same time, also at young ages... I started to realize that tommorrow's not guaranteed... :)
