There is only one way to live your life, it's very simple, it's how I live my life. All there is to it is to understand a few basic principles which are:
1. Firstly and most importantly, you will die one day and when you die it's all over. It's a simple truth, you may be thinking [I]"Does this mean nothing matters so I can do whatever I want and in the end it doesn't matter?"[/I]No, it does not mean this at at all. You will live this life, you can't just kill someone because you can and spend the rest of your life in jail because when you die nothing will matter to you, while it won't matter to you, are you some kind of sadist? That'd suck hardcore.
2. You are the most important thing that ever happened. Everyone else are robots, pawns, actors, tools, machines -whatever you want to call them- for your life. They may be other people, but they aren't you. The chances of you, the person sitting there, reading this, not your clone, but you, to be born are beyond numbers, the events that lead up to you coming out of your mum are so precise and yet so random, just going back two hundred years makes the chances 1 in 6 untrigintillion (6 × 10^96) [B]MINIMUM[/B]. You are the impossible, you are the center of the universe.
3. If you work at anything long and hard enough, you will be successful. The time it'll take you is undetermined, but I promise you, if you want something - really want something - and you work at it then you [B]will[/B] manage it. It may seem like tearing down a mountain with a toothpick because maybe your target is, but that doesn't mean that it's impossible, all it means is that it'll take determination, not determination like winning a race (Unless that is your aim), more, harder; the kind of determination that puts Aron Ralston to shame.
And that's it, your life is now the only way to live it, this is thread is also my apology to Facepunch for my rudeness in past threads, I hope you can forgive me.
That's nice.
You'd think that only dead people would need to be told how to live.
.....What?
I know how to live my life. GTFO kthnx.

Yep that's totally me :v:
Strongbad, if you don't want to follow your life like this then that's fair enough, but this is the only way to live your life if you truly want to live...
Not really. The world could blow up. Heck even our solar system and no one else in the universe would even notice.
I'd kinda add "Treat others with kindness and respect" as an afterthought.
Other people are a stepping stone.
How about?
Appreciate the better things in life. Take more time to think outside the box.
Listen to music. Listen to Marvin Gaye.

And Stevie Wonder
[editline]07:14PM[/editline]
Also, Bob Dylan, The Beatles and Nirvana with a little Led Zeppelin and Doors
[editline]07:14PM[/editline]
Try a bit of Radiohead on top of that
Edit: those who rated dumb are closed minded. enjoy yourself.

There are so many ways to live your life and this is simply just another. It's far too relative to impose your ideal way of living on another person.
I for one agree with the theory behind your post but cannot personally relate due to the fact that I live my life in a far different fashion. In-fact, you're hardly in a position to tell others how to truly live their lives. It's almost ludicrous to believe that there is only one true way to live.
In my opinion, you are incorrect as is everyone else who believes their way of living is the ideal way to live for any human being. However, such people are also correct in a sense that their outlook is completely relative to their individual lives.
Believe in living forever.
Believe you have a soul.
God isn't up there, its all in your brain. Your brain is your only God. Believe in it
Honestly, what you say sounds great. But there isn't one way to live your life. Even if the way you say to think about it sounds so great, it is still a horrible way to think if you say only one way.
Just as special as you say each one of us are, there are that many ways PLUS more of how we can live our lives.
Don't close your mind, you'll regret everything you never thought of.

Now it's OK.

That train of thought leads to greed and selfishness.

They had heart as a band. Junkie or not, they are a generation of greatness.
Rare to get that nowadays.
Music in general has now moved me more than movies. Amazing how it happened.
Now you know.
Wow, man, I thought we were cool then you go break [B][I]my[/I][/B] automerge?

I think you need to open your mind past mainstream music (of all genres).
But yeah, Echoes is basically the Avatar of music, powerful shit.

My reaction :psyboom:
[QUOTE=John-Fu;25002697]-op snip-[/QUOTE]
I already have that stance on life. But I'm a lazy asshole so I don't do anything with it :v:
But thanks for explaining this, I've never been able to put it into words without someone calling me a selfish asshole. I just wouldn't sacrifice myself for someone, because then I'd be dead.
Like this guy:
[QUOTE=Mr. Someguy;25003094]That train of thought leads to greed and selfishness.[/QUOTE]
As I said, you don't have to be greedy and selfish you just don't have to do stupid things that will get you killed.
Gives me something to ponder for a minute.
And it's nice you wrote this, but seriously, I doubt people are gonna heed this. It's too much fun doing whatever you want, but it was a fun little read.
Nicely written :golfclap:
1. Everybody is fake and can be used as a tool, take advantage.
2. Nothing is real, everything is possible. If something is possible no matter how low the chance you [B]CAN[/B] do it. So if you really want it you [B]WILL[/B] achieve it.
3. You will live forever because you are the chosen one.
