Good Health

Family

Friends

Decent place to live, food to eat,
(running water, electricity, heat)

These are the things we often take for granted, that we should be the most grateful for.

There are so many people in the world who would risk their lives to enjoy the comforts that we do, which is why I don't allow myself to get caught up in material things.

Having a great life means more than driving the best car, living in the best house, making the most money, it is so much more than that!

I don't have a great life.

A life with no americans an pakis and musims and god.

love , faith, and happiness.

the one i had before i knew words replaced objects in everyday life becuase people want something more to do

I feel that a great life is whatever life deals me. Good times, bad times, sad times, and happy times. No matter what I can always talk to God about it. And I am NOT religious at all.

To me the most important item to live a great life is to behave in an Ethical manner, and observe the Golden Rule of not doing unto others what we would not like they did unto us.

I live my life to worship the mighty Zeus, our King of Kings, He gives me all I need!!

I live my live for Rah, God of the sun!

Well said.

My idea of a great life would be to have my family. Just me my mom and my dad. Thats all I could ask for doesnt matter if we live in a fancy mansion or me having the latest gadget. Family, God, and Happiness. Love is included in there to =D

I believe I have a great life. According to society its not but I believe just teh opposite.
I really don't have a lot of money and I live in a not so great area. (drugs, crime, all that stuff) I have the best friends in the world and sometimes I get along with my family. I smoke pot and party, so society doesn't like it too much. But overall I'm very content with my lie. Its amazing and I wouldnt change a thing about it

All I need is the true God by my side, Osiris!

Love
Family
Friends
A purpose in life (goals)
A well-balanced education
Being able to trust
Good health
Enough money to get by on
A decent place to live
A job that's interesting
People you can be honest with, and people who will be honest with you
Living in a climate you're happy with
Enough free time to work off stress
Making use of talents and having productive hobbies
Freedom to worship in the way you want to, and the way you feel is right for you
The ability to unclutter life and it's problems

A great life is one that can be deemed as worthwhile. As of now, I do not know if my life is worthwhile. I may find that out in death, and this is what I hope for.

If every moments have a word "happy" involve, that is a great life.

PERFECTION

You're right.. Having a great life starts with having a great mindset to life. The simple things are always what makes life so worthwhile. A great life is not made up of material things, external circumstances or conditions, but rather the appreciation that life is great itself.
