Do you think life is what you make it or what is giving to you?

I think its a combination of both. Too many people have risen from despair and become successful. Others have been blessed with riches, the right naturing and made a mess of things for themselves and others. "When life gives you lemons; make lemonade with it"!

think of it this way... your life and what happens daily, is made up of events.  your "luck" is your reactions to what happens, life is only 10% what happens and 90% how you react to it

The meaning of life is to live it.

I think you are given things in your when you are ready to receive them. For instance, I never really wanted children but I have inherited some through my bf and they are really a gift. They help keep me straight and focused on what is really important in life.

In this speech, perhaps you could talk about different choices we have in life. You can either do thing a) or thing b). Life is what you make of it: you are responsible for your own choices.

It basically means that you and your life are what you decide to make them, or at least that's how I interpreted it.

to me life is to live, love, laugh and learn\n\n"live everyday as your last, cause tomorrow may never come."

Life is God's greatest gift to mankind. Live it well that it becomes your greatest gift to God.

I must say, I'm pretty content with life. I don't really want/need anything... Could I save the wish for a bad day, maybe? haha. I don't think I'd wish for anything, honestly. Obstacles, not knowing everything, not being perfect - It just makes life all the more interesting. I'd give my wish to someone who actually needed it. :)

Neither.  Life is what you make it after it's finished screwing with you.

Life is what you make out of it. It's this simple.\nMy opinion if you hang out with loosers you my become one.\nI my self am loving life-I'm a head custodian at an Elentary school in Concord, Ca and my side job ia a children's Author of three published books.

Today both are important. Money and happiness.\n\nMoney to make ends meet and happiness to give meaning to your life.\n\nGiven a choice I would chose happiness.\n\nMoney can't buy happiness and even with all the money in the world my life will remain the same.\n\nThough if I'm happy then I will have the spirit to put in my best in all I do which will also help me excel at my work and earn enough to at-least make ends meet.

Nothing, but thanks for asking. I'm blessed in many ways, though I don't HAVE everything, I have what I need. Just found this question interesting, which made me stop and think .... I need for nothing. Nice reflective moment, Thanks.

No, ROFL.  Life is all in your brain, everything you are is in your brain.\n\nQuestions?  Comments?  Concerns?  Email me through me profile.  :)

Life has no meaning other than what you, the individual make of it. The answer is different for each individual.

I believe that we should live our lives now, not for some indeterminant reward when we die.  And part of living that life means doing good works, not for the goodies but because that's what good people do.
