Don’t you think life means just closer to death?

We all are going to die and when we die people will forget we existed. Life is filled with struggles and we are just living to die. We are hoping we die in peace without pain emotionally and physically. In my religion it is stated that life is fleeting so always know death is close. We are not taking youth , beauty or wealth with us to the grave even if we have all that. We just strive to live a decent life and be good until we die. Sometimes we fail miserably trying to be good. Life causes us to become bitter and rough. People bring out the worst in us, especially in my case.

But it helps to not complain and try to improve your life. Staying bitter is painful.

You were not born to be happy.
That is something you will always long for.
You were born to serve the better interest of others.
It is by making others happy that you will find purpose and joy.
It is by doing good things that we become good people.
It is by being good people in a steady manner that we find moments of true joy.

Never give up.
Never give in.

No matter how bad it hurts....

I know it’s fulfilling to make others happy but they need to make me happy as well. @HikingMan

@SW-User A part of living is learning.
We need to learn how to best put forth our kindness and caring.
We need to learn to limit those within our circles that are simply vampires of our emotional output.
We need to learn that being kind without ever hoping people show kindness in return is what actully makes us kind people.
We need to live and learn to care for ourselves in a way that lets us help others.
I'm still learning and just doing my best.

What if..?
