Mr.P's Challenge 1

107. What is your approach to life? Reveal your life philosophy.

"Live your life to the fullest." Every time I hear this phrase I wonder how one lives their life to the fullest? How do you know if you are living your life to the fullest? Some people think living your life to the fullest means climbing Mt. Everest, or going scuba diving, and some think it is participating in everything. Often people think doing something extreme or putting on a show shows that you are living your life to the fullest. However I think living your life to the fullest means being happy. In order to be happy you do what you like. I like watching movies and hanging out with my friends. I do not have to jump off a cliff to live my life to the fullest. I don’t have to participate in something I do not want to just so that I have the experience of it to live my life to the fullest. I am just fine sitting at home, eating pizza and watching a movie. There is nothing wrong with doing what you like. You don’t have to prove anything to anyone by doing something you don’t want to. I don’t really like playing sports but my twin sister loves it and she is good. This doesn’t mean even I have to play Basket Ball like her. You should do what you want to do, and you should not get influenced by others when it comes to this matter. As long as you are happy and are doing something you like, then yes you are living your life to the fullest. People always try to make you feel small if they see that you are not a very social. I think that is absurd. If you are a very social person it doesn’t necessarily mean that you are smart or have a good personality. You can be extremely shy and be a better person that someone who is extremely popular and social. Being quiet is actually a good skill, and it doesn’t mean that you are stupid. I think everyone should do what they want to and not change their personality for anyone, because then again how do we define what a ‘good’ personality is.
