What is life?

Posted on Mar 07, 2008 under General

There are two schools of thought…

"One school of thought maintains that life is what you take from it. The other school of thought believes life is what you give to it. If you stand to take you may gain success, but if you stand to give you may gain both success and happiness."

 

During my school days I had come across this profound saying. Though, I read it once it stayed stuck in my head and never seems to leave. Probably, it’s stuck for the rest of my life I guess.

I admit these were not my views but since I grew up assimilating such thoughts my own viewpoint underwent a change and adapted itself to these thoughts to such an extent that now I don’t see them as something different from my own outlook.

What’s your outlook on life?
