Life = learning to deal with disappointments and regrets?

Question: Life = learning to deal with disappointments and regrets!?

It seems as if the "point" of life; the "purpose" of existing is merely to learn how to cope with disappointment and regret!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

i disagree!. life is there to be lived!. true, a certain amount of disappointment and regret come along with that and learning how to overcome it makes you stronger but is that what life is all about!? do you really believe we were put here to suffer misfortunes and learn how to get over them!? no!. well in a small way because that part of life but in the much bigger picture life is there for experience!. thats why we have minds so we can experience the beauty of things!. but it was an interesting thought you had, i know i sometimes wonder that on off days =)

It only seems that way because you were given false hopes!. Why are you disappointed - what did you think was appointed to be, that isn't, and where'd you get that idea!?

Whatever led you to expect to have no regrets!? Would it really be preferable to have none!? Coping means getting more understanding, and understanding is a major upgrade of experience; so if there's a point I think it's more likely to be that upgrade, not the coping itself!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

You can look at it that way, but i think trials & tribulations make you a stronger person & builds character!. The point of life is to live, learn, love, grow & reproduce!. You can let the bad things in life bring you down or you can let them build you up!. What doesnt kill you makes you stronger!. Thats how i look at it!. Life is not perfect for anyone!. Everyone has problems & things that hurt them, its all on how you cope with it!. Some people are stronger than others!. You just have to make the best of it!. We dont know exactly why we are here, we just know that we are!. God (if you believe in him) never wanted us to die!. But Adam & Eve chose to eat from the tree of good & evil & that exposed us all to sin!. The wages of sin is death!. Fortunately for us there is a way to clense our sins & be forgiven!. If we chose that then we only die physically & not spiritually!. I am not a "bible banger"!. This is just what i believe & is thonly explanation that makes sense to me personally!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Life is nothing but the fantasy / Life is nothing but a journey -

Fantasy - means , suppose we see a movie of 2 hrs and the characters are playing the role of different person other than what they are in real world - after the role is over - they go as a real person what they are to their living place and live the life like others - they have the different role in different movies - but they do not carry the feeling or emotional touch!.

In a similar fashion we ought to live the life and to erase the memory for the things not suitable to our temperament and save the memories and chew the same what we like !.

Journey - We took birth as a fitus / infant / child / teen / young / veteran / and then old age - with the pace of time - initially the family members then school folks then work place - then love romance and counter parts - kids - all such incidence and event are occurring without our liking and non likings but still we see it look it - digest it - swallow it - enjoy it - many passes away who were with us and many new joins - Its like a journey either in the train - the station comes - few are getting down and few are just get in - we chit chat for quite some time with the knowledge that we will be departing and are now for few minutes or hrs or days

Similar is the life - all the ages are passing on every day and we start thinking that the new day shall start tomorrow with the decision to bury unwanted thoughts and feelings with the new one to welcome then won't be having any sorrows or regrets !.

To live is to suffer!. You must find a meaning in suffering!.

Why not buy yourself a new pair of shoes or something!? -a pair that is a little too tight!.

I think you should be content with just an ordinary life, most people's lives are pretty rubbish actually!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Don't be so Emo!. The purpose of life is to be as happy as possible at any given moment of any given day!. Whatever makes you happy, there is your purpose in life!. It need not be more complex than that!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

No, life INCLUDES those things, just as it includes getting your driver's license renewed periodically, but life does not EQUAL those things!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

That is what seems to be the case in this age, isn't it!?

In the near future, however, things will all be different!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
