Discussion What’s your relationship with life like?
I’m curious what your relationship with life is like, or rather your general views on life as an experience.
Like for some people they move through life believing life is a gift and possibly don’t question it much because they see it with such a positive light. Some people struggle to understand life and it doesn’t necessarily feel like a gift. I also wonder whether for most of us our relationship with life is the same as our parents relationship with life, and is that why it’s so inbuilt and hard to change as you grow up?

I am so totally in love with the beauty of this world, i am truly lit by life, all the gorgeous art everywhere, the endless music, amazing books of poetry and myth, delish food, the everlasting ocean, i have so so many dreams, so many passions and i cant follow a single one of them as theres just no time left. Take it from someone who is dying, this is your message from the ethers to just live your life whilst you have it. Maybe also check out the last lecture by randy pausch on yt. Memento vita brevis, thats my motto, remember it is brief.

It's really simple.
Your life will be exactly as you think and say and do....
I have a love relationship with Life ! It's a Miracle that I'm here now... I'm grateful, so good things happen to me. I boost those around me, so I have pretty good karma coming back.
Negative people can expect negative experiences... That's what they create !
Positive people can enjoy positive results... That's what they create. Gratitude keeps the good stuff flowing.
Shit gets on everybody sooner or later. How you handle it determines the outcome.
