Most people will never actually live, they will only think that they did. Somebody famous said that. I don’t know who it was, but sadly he or she was right.
This is a sad truth. What does it really mean to live? I am by no means qualified to tell. We are all different and we like different things and customs.
But here is my humble definition of living. Just live without regrets. But I don’t mean the kind of regrets where you made mistakes, or cause some kind of disaster. They are all fine. They are likely just failures you didn’t mean, but they happened.
As long as you want to do something or go somewhere, achieve something, or become someone and you fail, that’s perfectly living life to the fullest. As long as you gave it a spanking good try and you failed, you still get a gold medal.
The regrets I am talking about are…….. Well, I don’t really have to talk about them. You already know about them. So go and fix it. And you already know how to.
Otherwise you might realize someday, that you actually really didn’t live that much at all. Not a great kind of realization. Fight like hell to avoid it. And watch out. Time is ticking. There is no better time to start living as now!
This might apply also to your desire of having a six pack abs. Make sure you give it your best try you can from now on. If you don’t achieve it, that will be fine as long as you really, really gave it a magnificent try!
