This could be interpreted as meaning that you will find success ("reach beyond the stars") when you accept and make the best out of your current circumstances("rejoice in the possibilities I have today") instead of sitting and complaining about all the evil life has given you (you "rise" to embrace the good instead).\n\nIt could also mean that you should stop waiting for a perfect moment/opportunity to come along ("rejoice in the possibilities I have today"). Instead, you should work with what you have right now and you will be surprised how far that will take you towards your goals ("reach beyond the stars")

wow!, that was a good one; I can't help you with that. Could it meant:\n1) we are moving at the speed of light; or trying to keep up with everyday life changes; growing to fast?\n2) people don't die from coughs?\n\nI couldn't find anything on www.UsingEnglish.com

Life is like a game of cards. The hand that is dealt you is determinism; the way you play it is free will.  This was one of Nehru's famous quotes from famous quotes online.\n\nI got the next quote from an article written by Niranjan Ramakrishnan on the web. He translated a quote of Nehru saying: "He who tries to predict the India of tomorrow would be a bold man. He who would predict the India of the next century would be a mad man." \n\nHope that helps

Serious answer: No it is not.\n\nBut there is more to life.....

I don't know who said it, or the actual quote but it went along the lines of, "If you have 1 true friend, then you have succeeded in life".  I have plenty of true friends and I already feel like my life has mattered (whether for the better or worst I cannot say).  I remember a discussion we had in a class once in which a teacher said, no matter what we do, we will not matter in the large scale of things.  I disagreed of course and stated of course we change history.  For example, what if the man who invented the atom bomb were never born?  What if the people who researched penicillian had different paths and what if certain events, such as a teacher telling a student to get back in line and the student following through never occured?  Had that teacher not been there, the students' world could be very different.\n\nSo, I think everyone's life does matter in some way shape or form, unless you have no interaction with anyone at anytime your life does matter.  And even if you don't, in some way you are still a part of the earth, even when you die and become the ground again.

"Enjoy and live life to the fullest." I believe that we should follow this quote because life is too short and nobody knows when we are going to die so while we're still here in this world, enjoy it with family and friends but not to the extent of hurting or doing harm to other people.

Real life is the positive impact you make in your time and the positive impact you leave on others lives for ages and generations to come,\nIt is the realisation that you are in the scheme of things a teeny weeny bit, and negligible given the vast Universe, Its also the realisation that you hold immense power to get outta orbit if you strive to.\nLife is a gift, a blessing, look at the lessewr previliged, the blind, the invalid, the people who are sick and know that death is imminent, yet live and fight to live,\nLook at those to whome life has offered the best, yet choose to sacrifice it for a cause so others can live,\nDeath on the other hand is a certainity, yet none plans by death. \nwe have seen our elders pass away, some smiling, some in agony, some without an expression and some so suddenly that u cant believe they have gone,\nyet we plan for lives, all our lives we spend planning, some enjoy living, others curse and go on living,\nIt depends on you,\nrelish Gods gift and enjoy and let others enjoy\nor be like George W Bush, Find ways of creating and sustaining fear, destroy, kill, all in the name of qualitative living.\nIn the words of Haali \n" Aagaah apni mouth say koee bashar nahee\n Samma hai sou baras ka Pal kee khabar nahee"\nMeaning none knows his time of death, yet we prepare for a century not knowing if we can live the next moment.
