Greetings Earthlings,
This last weekend has gotten me thinking about life. And I've been left wondering what is important to me in life. I know my parents generation 'thing to do' was to get a job and stay in it for 40 years, be 'socially acceptable', get married & have kids.
However, the current 'era' & our parents 'era' are vastly different. And although work is still important (I guess) i don't see it as the MOST important thing.
My list has things like Happiness, Family & Friends, Health & Comfort, Self Respect, Taking time to enjoy.
I was wondering what others consider the most important aspects of life. Most of the people around me seem to be going through this "Where do I fit in?" type thought process at the moment, I'm also wondering if there is anyone else experiencing this line of thinking.
Peace All
Namaste
 
Everyone thinks about this sort of thing, I do it when I'm depressed more than anything.
Most importants things in my life are:
  • Health (body & mind)
  • Friends & Family
  • Getting the career I actually want
  • Having a shoulder to lean on
  • Fulfilling my dreams
  • Being firt to reply to this post

happiness...
family...
kindness and compassion to all sentient beings....
 
The most important things in life for me are having fun, making the people I care about happy, and trying to not do anything to reduce the happiness of others... Everything I do in life is a means to and end, and that end is those things listed above...
Having a job means I can afford things that will allow me to have fun, and allow me to buy things that will make others happy... And if I'm having fun, and those I love are happy, then I'm happy...
 
most of all FUN.. memories of fun, funny stories to tell my grankids

i wanna expereience everthing i can, meet lotsa fun people..
by the end of it all sit back n just laugh n smile at all the funny stuff..
but i also wanna feel like i have achieved something and made a difference and be around special people who make me feel good

bedle, ur completely right. FUN is my main priority in life. i want to feel good in everything i do. i'm now thinking that clubbing is now a bit too much a big part of my life. and wondering why this is, i evaluate why i love it... it's an environment that stems from fucking great music, music that moves u, takes on a journey (ah, pvd). this, along with a bunch of like-minded beautiful people around u, creating a positive vibe where everything really is "all good". E is my Escape in a way. maybe i want to escape too much? maybe i'm not happy with my life? no, i don't think so. i think i'm just like everyone else - searching for love and happiness and a fulfilled life. ah, who knows, its all good! cheers
 
In earlier years, life wasn't really much else but life...
But now, for me life is about learning and love. {Fun comes along with that I think} The more aware you are about life situations that you find yourself in and help your friends out of, the more you learn about yourself. The way I have fun is to know how to have it, and I know how to, by knowing myself.
Only in the past 6 months or so have my friends and family meant the absolute world to me. It kinda comes when you are in a position where you know you lose the people you love over something really pathetic...{yes, like a guy ok?!} And all is fine and dandy when you know how much you care about people and they return the kindness...
And to stop myself from sounding like some emotional-in-touch-with-herself-idiot I would also like to add that going out kiks ass. If It wasn't the stupidest thing to do, I would go out every night just cause my buddies are the greatest... But apparently it isn't too good for the system, and my bank account wouldn't stand for it.
The best thing to do on your own {by my standards} is enjoy music. I can never go past an empty house, without pumping my music and belting out my lungs. Its so cleansing. It gives you space to be an idiot and have no-one care.
Oh and the most important thing is to try and be kind, even when you dont want to be. But I generally get past the resentment by looking at something in the world and smiling. Something little like how beautiful the day is, or how funny it is when little kiddies fall over and laugh not cry. Purely smiling makes me happy, which makes everything okay in my world. And again, I am babbling shit so...
I'm going kiddies.

tell you the truth, the use of ecstacy has made me (I say this very carefully) very more aware of not only myself but also what is happening around me.
after many weeks of sorting through all the bullshit in my head, I've come to realise that the things that mean alot to me (and to pretty much most people) are:
- to be content, happy and comfortable (and not worry about trivial stuff) about my life.
- to strife to get the very most out of life and do something worthwhile and rewarding.
- to have my family and friends close by.
- to find Wally on every page in all the Where's Wally books

Laughter. Everything else is secondary, and if I can't find humor/irony is something, something's seriously amiss in my noggin.
But I've got to agree with Horsey, too...ping pong rocks the Casbah.

I've found out that there are pretty much three things that ride over all others.... its mainly come to me from the way i've been brought up and my attitude towards life and friendships.... the most important things in my life are....
Truth
Trust
Respect
I find by holding those things dear to me.... that a lot of other things will fall into place or are trival and dont really matter.....
------------------
Walk with me
The futures at hand
Here with us
Here where we stand
We both know
The power of pain
We get back up and start it again
New hope no place for tears
Leave behind those frozen years
Come with me and we'll go dreaming
 
To state what I want to do with my life, I think it'd be easier to tell you what I don't want...
To lie on my death bed, and think... "I wish I'd climbed that tree when I was 10 years old..." or "If only I told her/him what I really felt".
I'm an extreme opportunist, to say the least.
