there a happiness topic asking what it is, but this something else. If you were to die now (from whatever, you can let your imagination soar in this case), would you be content with how you lived your life? Could you say that given what you had, and what you did, are you satisfied with how your life turned out? Or would you go into the "what if' wonderment and regrets instead? disregard things like 'goodbyes and getting married" since for many, those are a given. I would go into the "what if" and regrets area, regretting that I'm a lazy fool and that I didn't do as much as I could. a morbid topic in itself, but when you think about it, it's like in a book of your life. |

No. I only hope I have a greater purpose then where I am at now. I don't even believe I have started living life yet.
There is always room for improvement. But If I died now, I know I tried my best at what life gave me.
I might at first, like anybody else, but eventually I will have to realize to accept the unavoidable truth. I guess it also all depends on the meaning of death. Some believe that ones life isn't over when we leave our human bodies. While others believe we'll only end up under the ground, as our bones rot in our graves. I am not perfect. I accept that. But my idea of a satisifing life is changing the world for the better of us. |

I am happy with myself as a person, but as someone that is only 18 years old, I'd be a fag to think about this too deeply. of course I am not satisfied with how I have lived my life, as there are many things I have not yet done. Ask me again in 80-90 years. As a person, however, I like myself. Sure, I may be a perverted weirdo that sits in the back of class and stares at his binder that is plastered with pictures of fictional girls in skimpy outfits, or a guy that guards that purple notebook in his backpack fiercely because it contains prototypes of lesbian fanfiction often involving said fictional girls, or a guy that listens to alot of bands that feature at least one cross-dressing man as a member, BUT I THINK THAT STUFF IS REALLY COOL. Therefore, I am really cool. So, even though the topic title says "overall," I cannot say that with certainty due to my young age. I can only judge individual sections, time periods, and moments by themselves. As I said above, I am happy with myself currently. I feel that right now I am at a very good place and I like what I have become. Ask me what I think about myself as a small child, however, and I will say I was a dumbass that said really stupid shit and deserved a few smacks in the face. Little children are often like that. I am ashamed of my childhood self simply because I acted as all small children do: retarded. Therefore, not only can I not accurately judge my entire life, but I prefer to focus on right now rather than reminisce about being a hueg dumbfuck. Also dongs. |

Hurr~ we had a quickwrite like this in English class a few weeks ago. There are two undeniable facts about life, we are born and then we die. Trying to label life with any other purpose is just silly, it's prolonging the inevitable. So with that being said, I would not mind if I died right now. Would I be content with the way I lived and prolonged my life? I don't feel like that's important. After all, even if one achieves world-wide success, humans will eventually cease to exist, so it won't matter anyway ;( But we can say that with the way things are right now in life, I could careless whether or not I'm struck dead at this very moment. There are things that I would still like to do, but in the end, it doesn't matter. When you die, you bring nothing with you. People say that memories last forever. But seriously, you'll die and so will the people in your memories. So then what's left? Nothing~ Your footprints in the sand will wash away. I think I would make my teacher proud if I told him this =w= |

No, I absolutely would not be content. At all.
With my life I would not be content at all if I died right now, I'd be completely unsatisfied with my life. I'd go into the "What if" wonderment and regrets instead. Unlike Victor, as a person I dislike myself. I'm a very cruel person, in my entire life I've done so many horrible things, and I always have wondered things like "What if I haven't done that...could I have saved something important to me?" I keep everything, every feeling inside of me, even when I'm venting 20 paragraphs to someone I can definitely say that's not even a quarter of it, sometimes how I say I feel are lies to, because of this I have a really cold shell surrounding myself. I'm very cold and critique in real life, aka I'm a fucking jerk. I've never even once told someone how I truly feel about them, besides that one time in 7th grade when this one girl sat next to me in art, and I just turned around and said "I hate you" that was truly how I felt about her, I never even spoke to her, I didn't know her well, but still that was how I truly felt, I know how I feel about someone, despite the fact I know nothing about them, and I still do hate that girl. However Unlike a Book, I cannot be read. [Speaking of which my username contradicts, but hey both our usernames start with Book of ________] So far, at my current age. I'm too perverted for my age, I play porn games, I'm more obsessive with fictional people that doesn't even exist then real people, I watch fictional shows to escape reality and fill that void in my life. I'm a mean person. I'm that fat guy who lives in his mother's basement browsing the internet at age 50 looking at fictional porn. I'm an absolutely a horrible perverted person. D: I've always wondered how I'd turn out, if I never met certain people, how would I be? How would I feel about these people 10yrs after the period of when I should've met them but didn't because I chose the other path, would my feelings alter? If you ask me [which you technically are] I liked my childhood the happy carefree moments at least, but that time is gone, what I have left is what I've become. As one of my favorite song title is.. "Who I am hates who I've become" sadly I AM who I've become. That said. I still have my entire life ahead of me, so I might as well appreciate the good things, until I die. Hopefully I won't Die right now. |

Oh Booky I wanna hug you and not let go. >.< You're too young to be so upset. D: Back when I was your age, I used to be very into black humour. As in AFRICAN-AMERICAN humour. It was apparently riotously funny whenever I rapped or said I was "straight out of Compton." People loved it. I WAS HEADING DOWN A TERRIBLE ROAD. You'll grow into someone you like, just be patient. Keep a grip on reality, talk to your friends alot, and stay hopeful. :33 You're too cool a kid to be so upset about yourself. And because this post was probably uncharacteristically cheesy, Samiel is a dumbass. There, it's a Victorpost now. |

Wtf, why are you not a bitch on this forum, Booky? I want to meet that person instead of your blah persona. On topic: I'm not content with my life in an overall sense. I have not accomplished about anything on my to do list. I have so much to live for. |

Life is about setting goals and achieving them. I will be happy to die when I run out of goals to set and achieve. If I die now, that would fucking suck. There are plenty of things that I want to do. Don't people want more out of life than what they have at the moment? Surely, if you have a 100 year old person who has to eat from a tube all day, you'd wouldn't mind it to end. But we are a forum of young, virulent and attractive people. We have a huge life in front of us and if we were to end it now, it would be a waste of life. I'm not unhappy with my life, but I have more stuff to do. If I were to die now, I wouldn't regret anything I had done. I would only regret things that I hadn't done. If I make mistakes, I learn from them. If I didn't make those mistakes, I wouldn't be the person I am now. I am pretty much content, but I can become ALOT happier through living more. I mean, I want to go to Japan again. I want to really fall in love. Heck, I want to play Brawl. BUT THOSE THINGS MAY NOT HAPPEN WHEN I DIE. I believe in an afterlife, but that is hardly any excuse not to do things now. If any of us here on the forum wish to die, get your head out of the fucking clouds. You're better than that. If you think it's alright to die now, perhaps you should make your life worth living. No one here should be satisfied with death. No one. |

OMG (sorry no H today since i'm serious) Don't worry,booky you're not alone that 3 paragraph of yours Describe me best I am Fat,perverted (but doesn't play porn games since i don't have one),loves fictional people more than real people around me and let animes fill the void Seriously,I look like a carbon copy of you I'm not typing this because i pity you but to tell you that you're not the only one who is like that.. so don't be sad Now My View: Life is What you make it...(seriously). it's either you destroy it or make it better it's not too late to change (except if you're gonna die 5 minutes from now). It's like a visual datinggame. you choose what you like and try hard to get what you want. If i were to die today..ummm I don't think that way...I let myself savor the time that i live and tries to make it better (even though it's still a failure) Yes,i want to die too but God has a Plan for us remember that everyone has it's "time" Hello Mahora.....Deshi |

There are a few issues I need to sort out, but beyond that yeah I'm happy... Well, if I even remembered all of this stuff on Earth with the wonders of Heaven surrounding me...my only regret (save for the obvious) is not being able to serve the Lord more than a measly 15 years. |

If I were to die soon, I will have regrets and would be slightly unsatisfied. But I wouldn't think "what if" since there's no point in grieving about stuff in the past you can't change anymore. I was who I was, I can't change what happened... Rather than that, if I really were to die I think I would be thinking about either happy memorey or about how I'd like some things to change for the better after I die. (It dosen't have to be related to me or my death... It's stuff like, "I'd like her to always stay cheerful like that." or "I wish he gets better and start he's life over." and stuff like that.) Like Jiz said. We born, and we die. Our last goal in life should be accepting our death, since there's no escape from it. So instead of crying about everything you didn't do or the kind of person you've become or what you should've done, we should either accept it or change it to the way we wanted to. Like Booky, if you don't like being the "fucking jerk", than just change to a friendlier person by talking to others and stuff. I won't say it's easy or anything, but you should eventually change to what you want in time if you just try. I mean, we're all the same right? We're all human, all of our brains are built the same. Thus, you shouldn't have any expectational problem becoming friendlier~~ Lol, sorry if im writing some kinda annoying comment or anything. Youre case just kinda reminds me of a friend of mine, so I might've said some stupid not-so-related stuff |

Exactly. I think people should realize that there's no escaping death and that you shouldn't get so worked up over the things you want to do in life. Think the first Matrix. The purposes we set for ourselves in life only just prolong our own death. You set a goal for yourself. You reach that goal. What next? You find a new one. Or some people say that their purpose or goal in life is to be successful. You reach that goal, great! What next? You're never really happy with your life if you need to keep trying to find excuses to keep on living or keep doing whatever you're doing. We're all just trying to justify a meaning for a life that doesn't have one. 100 years after my death, nobody will care whether or not I lived a happy life or found my own purpose. So I feel that on a larger scale, it doesn't matter. If I were another person and I saw myself whinge on about how I wouldn't be content with my life if I died, honestly, I wouldn't give a damn. |
