Hi, good question, Its always older people who make this remark, when you are young a day can be so long, and you really can`t imagine 20 or 30 yrs ahead, and also you tend to live for the here and now.\nas you get older middle to elderly age life dosen`t seem that long anymore,you are more aware of your own mortality,and leaves you are more aware also of what you could do or re-do if time was on your side.\nalso there are people who fight getting old and regret  the aging process, again some people have had such full meaningful lives and they too mourn the fact that time is robbing them of more of the same.\nmany are the reasons for saying life`s too short and we will all probably say it sometime in our lives, the important thing is too live well and have few regrets.

It isn't important to live a long life, but it should be a meaning full one.look at the oak tree,it lives for 300 years ,but it is of no use to others.on the other hand  take an example of a lily, it has a extremely short life,it just lives for a day, n then withers away, but during it's lifetime it spreads a lot of radiance ,beauty and fragrance around it.it enlivens the environment.There's no use of living a life which is of no gud to others.

There isn't a true meaning of life, any more than there is a true meaning of rocks, or a true meaning of gravity.\n\nThis is not the same thing as saying life is pointless or worthless. It's what you aim for that counts - as the saying goes, shoot for the moon, and even if you miss you reach the stars. You have to agree with yourself which aims make sense, where you want to go - nobody can do this for you, they won't be the right ones. For me, coming to terms with the fact I can't do everything was the first step towards realising I can do something. \n\nMay you work out what your own personal something is, and exceed it!

It sounds more special when you say, "I love you from the bottom of my heart.."  Because heart signifies life and it is just like saying, "You're my life.."  I don't know but that's what I think. :)

Life only once and short, I don't think too much about the definition of life because  how we live for our own life writes the history and definition. I choose enjoy my life. To enjoy life comes with so many ways. The summary of happiness I experience is sharing happiness, achieve dreams and help people. Best Wish

Because people generally do things with their hands. If you've got too much time on your hands, it means you've not got enough things to do.

To me, the meaning of life is to be happy and to do the right thing. I don't think that anybody should read something about how to live their own lives. Live your life the best way that you can and that's the only way that you can do it. My father died three days ago and now, I want to live my life to the fullest so it doesn't seem like I wasted it.

Sometimes people feel awkward with the proper terms because they are unfamiliar., or they don't know how to pronounce them. Also, society as a whole has a fairly small vocabulary, and wouldn't even KNOW the word if someone used it!

I suugest it is a mispronunciatio of the french "s'il vous plait." The less educated of the time picking up what they thought they heard and used it to affectaion. Thus it became prety please

I think it means, "Such is life."

It's from being online too much. Laziness is a factor. It may have been spawned from the whole "text messaging" cell phone reveloution. But to be honest, the brevity in online language has been around a long time. Ever since the dawn of online communication people have been coming up with clever little emoticons and ways of shortening phrases. For instance, LOL standing for Laughing out Loud. AFK standing for "Away from Keyboard" which you don't see much of anymore. BRB meaning "Be Right Back" is the same idea. In any case, these have been around forever. Yet the shortening of normal words is a bit absurd and it's everywhere. Sometimes I even catch myself using "ur" to represent the word "your". It may be because I use text messaging every day and it is much easier to hit a button 5 times then it is to hit it 9. I agree the laziness is just stupidity and really people should avoid doing it. Ultimately, it just makes people forget how to read and write properly. Which means you get a bunch of idiots online talking to each other and you have to try and interpret what they're saying. BTW, I think most of them really don't know how to spell.

Of course, life is too short; try to have fun once in a while.
