Overall, do you enjoy life?

If yes, come up with one particular reason you're enjoying it today. :)

(Thanks to all the vets of all the wars... your sacrifices are appreciated.)

Life is good.

I have a good job, I did great in college last semester, and I have some cool friends.

Sure I'm without a girlfriend, and I don't have as much money as a lot of people, and my computer isn't as fast as I'd like, but I dwell on the good points, not the negatives, and there is always something good to focus on. As long as I focus on the good, not the bad, life will always seem good :)

The other day, it rained. :) I'll see friends today. :) And there are people to email, there's homework to be done, and Jamba Juice is open. Life meshes a bunch of stuff together and it comes out good.

[Edit] And monotony has a really cute puppy! [/Edit]

Life is good. Summer is coming, plenty to do and look forward to.

Sure I could nitpick here and there but I save pessimism for winter. :)

To clarify, for me life is a pointless drudgery. No matter what you do you are still going to die. You might find something to occupy yourself during the time you have, but in the end it's all for nothing. Even if you accomplish great things the world is full of thankless slobs. In a few years no one will even remember your name. Even if you are very famous the next gemeration will only wonder who that old guy was. All your life you work hard to make other people rich and in the end you die unremembered. That's if you're lucky. If life is really cruel you get everything handed to you. That's an even more pointless life than the poor man who earns a living and thinks he's happy. Happiness is just one illusion in this world of mirrors and shadows. Sometimes it seems like free will is the greatest illusion of them all. And that's why I despise being alive. I'm not bitter about it. I know that it's just the luck of the draw, and that I don't really have it any worse than anyone else. The universe just worked out so that I was cursed with existance, rather than someone else. That's okay.

Life is great. It's all about appreciating what you've got. On the other hand, I do think I'm better off than most. :)

To clarify, for me life is a pointless drudgery, however interesting it is. No matter what you do you are still going to die but you get to live first. You might find something to occupy yourself during the time you have and some of those occupations are pretty incredible, but in the end it's all for nothing except your personal satisfaction and the satisfaction of those around you. Even if you accomplish great things the world is full of thankless slobs as well as some great people who do appreciate you. In a few years no one will even remember your name except those who loved you most. Even if you are very famous the next gemeration will only wonder who that old guy was and envy the interesting time that he got to live in. All your life you work hard to make other people rich and in the end you die unremembered except by the people whose lives you've enriched. That's if you're lucky and luck is what we make of things. If life is really cruel you get everything handed to you but the majority of us have the opporunity to work for things. That's an even more pointless life than the poor man who earns a living and thinks he's happy yet it provides different experiences and opportunities to round out the world. Happiness is just one illusion in this world of mirrors and shadows but when the shadows and mirrors disappear, it's what remains. Sometimes it seems like free will is the greatest illusion of them all but the reality of it overcomes the moments of doubt. And that's why I despise being alive but can appreciate it enough that I choose to remain so. I'm not bitter about it , just probing the way the world apparently works. I know that it's just the luck of the draw, and that I don't really have it any worse than anyone else, so I can enjoy things the same as others too. The universe just worked out so that I was cursed with existance, rather than someone else and I have the chance to be me. That's okay.

Sorry, I was wondering if I could stick something on to each of those sentences to make it sound cheerier. ;)
