Life cannot be defined because words will not be enough to describe it.
Life can be seen from different angles by different
people. As Doug Hutchins perfectly says, “Life is unpredictable and you need to live every day to the fullest.”
Life is not just good, it’s great, as long as we are grateful and know the true meaning of life. If you live in this moment, not
worrying about what happened in the past or what will happen in the future, but trying to embrace the wonderful feelings,
then you are truly living life. When we are grateful, we don’t worry about life but try to be optimistic and look at the bright
side of life. We also tend to enjoy even the smallest things. Therefore, we gain happiness undoubtedly. If all of us, the 7
billion population f the world, think the same way and be grateful for whatever life gives us, don’t you think the world
would be a much better place?

Life is good because there’s so much to explore. Every day, we learn something new out of life. If you don’t agree with it, I
might say that you are a dead body just wandering around for the sake of living. Because the day you stop learning is the
same day that you stop living and start dying. The more you explore, experiment, and engage in things that you love, the
more great moments and memories you create that will last for a lifetime. When we explore, there’s more excitement and
joy. As humans, we always love to be surprised by unexpected things. That is natural indeed but only happens if we explore.
Some people say that life isn’t always as good as it looks. They say that it’s depressing and that there’s a lot of pressure. In
this society, where everyone’s trying to earn money, be successful, do a job that has a good salary, I do agree that it is so
much pressure on competitiveness. But it’s your choice whether you are willing to climb that rocky path and try to enjoy
the moments on your way to succeed or wait for someone to create a smoother royal path for you and whine about life. If
you are planning to go with the second option, in my opinion, you may whine forever because no one’s going to do that for
you, and to be honest, in life, there is no royal path. It’s either you create your path and rather more experiences in life or
drown in your sorrows and continue to worry. It is you who decide whether you would leave a happy ending or a sad ending
to the story of your life.
All of us are given a golden chance to explore, experience, and feel moments which is simply to live. You are given a blank
book with pens of different colors. You decide whether you will use all of them to write your story or just fill the pages with
a black pen. The choice is yours. You are never late to start one or to even close a blank one.
