What's the secret to life?

[Margie J]

A friend lives by the motto:

"I'd rather live to regret the things I did instead of the things I didn't do."


As long as it's not illegal or immoral (forget the fattening cause I'm not giving up that) I'm willing to try many things. Life is unpredictable and I want to experience as much of it as I can, when I can. I'm not waiting until I "retire" to travel, for example.

Too bad many people don't live by the motto "don't sweat the small stuff". A co-worker recently stayed home for four days because something minor didn't work out right. All I could think is that she will fall apart if something of real importance happens in her life. Get over it and save your emotions and effort for what's really meaningful, such as your family and relationships.

The secret to life is there is no secret.

no one I have heard said it better than Robert Louis Stevenson:

That man is successful who has lived well, laughed often, and loved much, who has gained the respect of the intelligent men and the love of children; who has filled his niche and accomplished his task; who leaves the world better than he found it, whether by an improved poppy, a perfect poem, or a rescued soul; who never lacked appreciation of earth's beauty or failed to express it; who looked for the best in others and gave the best he had

Good coffee, music, the sun, the rain, and books.

City Slickers:
Jack Palance> You know what the secret of life is? This. (Holds up one finger)
Billy Crystal> What, your finger?
P> No, one thing. Just one thing. You stick to that and nothin' else don't mean a damn.
C> Great, What's the one thing?
P> That's what you gotta figure out."

Good answer JohnTBap, but the secret to life is laughter...

DUHHhhhhhhh!!!



Oh and Ran's answer too.

Love, be loved, and don't put off until tomorrow what you can ENJOY today.

I live by the philosophy that you've never heard on someone's deathbed that they should have spent more time at the office instead of being with their friends, family, or doing the things they enjoy.

 

[Joeblack]

Love what you have!!!!!

Disnee Dad Says.....................................I've learned something today. The secret of life isn't big houses or nice cars.

It's whether you love Disney or not!

While, technically, it's the "answer", not the "meaning", I still have to go with 42.

The secret to life?

Not dying

I'm gonna post this and then read the thread so if anyone has said this before, I apologize.

I think James Taylor said it best: The secret to life is enjoying the passage of time!

 

[Planogirl]

Do your best.

Never get called out looking at a 3rd strike.

Life shouldn't be measured by the number of breaths you take, but the number of moments that take your breath away.

Live It. Love It. Enjoy It.
