A wise man once told me: "There are two ways to live your life. You can live as though you will live forever or you can live as though you will die tomorrow. The key is to realize that they are the same"

Life is the longest thing you ever do, so I'd say it's pretty damn long.

in comparison to everything else going on in the universe, human life is relatively short. once you die- there is no eternal afterlife (lol religion xD), so therefore the claim made by this image is false. Also, when someone regrets a choice they make in life it's usually because they violated some kind of social norm, and screw worrying about that.

BULLSHIT to this. This is absolutely the stupidest thing I've read in many years. "you're gonna haveta"<--- insert southern accent. It might as well have been haveta. No one has to do anything if they don't want to, jackass. Also, you've honestly trademarked the phrase "Life is long"? You are a fucking idiot. Your timescale is selfish and retarded, "ray". Enjoy living your long life, because you obviously don't have any friends. Oh snaps, I have to live with this decision to insult you for the next 50 years, wait, i don't.

I think it's all about balance.. If you live like it's your last day you won't get far in life - it's just not self-sustainable - and after 20 years you might regret it. If you live only thinking about the future you'll end up missing life. The key is to enjoy the moment and to do what you want and at the same time to do what's right, so in the future you can enjoy the moment too.

I had a very bad car crash a few months ago where I was trapped underwater for a minute or so and during that time I was convinced I was about to die. It was the most important minute of my life. What you do with your life does not matter one bit, even if you totally change the world - unless you made at least one person happy then you have wasted your life. If you live as though each day was you last you will truly appreciate the beauty & complexity of life, when you make mistakes and lose everything it doesn't matter because you in your mind are going to die tomorrow. Worrying about the future is the biggest waste of time, effort and opportunity. You are the only one experiencing your life.

Saying that life is short or saying that life is long is non-sense. The reality is that nobody knows the length of it! Live one day at a time.

People only use "life is short" as an excuse to be a sleazy scum-bag moron drug-abusing alcohol obsessed little shit during their teen years and not feel guilty for it.
The truth of the matter is, you're a shit bag, and there's absolutely no justification for that. You deserve for everybody to hate you for it and your life to be totally messed-up as a result.
Which, let's be honest, is the most likely outcome.

Woooow. Count to ten buddy. You need a "jump to conclusions mat."

...You really believe people "only" use that as an excuse to abuse the one life they have? Try looking at the "life is short" philosophy with an open mind. Yes, people do get confused and those with a negative view on life may try drugs, alcohol, etc. to ease the pain. But others embrace the "short life" philosophy, and accomplish amazing things. Lance Armstrong, for example.

Just think about the amount of time you are given on this Earth, and realize that the fact is, life is not long. Anyone who says it is is naive. Life is beautiful, but on any historical time line, very, very short.

So go live it.

Life is what you choose to make of it, be it long or be it short. You have been given a life and you make your choices as to how it turns out. If you choose to be a bum all your life then it's probably going to be a looonng life. If you choose to be a dare devil and be super adventurous, your life might turn out to be shorter. If your doing 25 to life...it will most likely seem like your going to live forever. If your looking down the barrel of a loaded gun, no matter how old you are,
life is going to suddenly feel awful short. only the person who's life is about to end can say if life was too short or if it was too long. Odds are it was too short.

::throws his two pennies in the hat:: One of the main principals of Buddhism is to 'live in the moment; not to regret the past or worry about the future'.. There is a such skill as long term planning, but not to realize that long term planning is comprised of millions of moments is a travesty. The conceptual disagreement between 'live in the moment' and 'life is loooong' is an illusion; THEY ARE BOTH THE TRUTH, and both related. If this bakes your noodle, you should really just stick to the day-to-day stuff ;)

The best comments: The third with one of the best quotes I've heard in some time. And the guy who said "C-C-C-COMBO BREAKER" while everyone was arguing. Laugh as much as you can -- that's my advice.

Jeanne Calment. I know her life wasn't the most usual length, but imagine.. She was born in 1875. When she was 11, the first 'automobile' was built. When she was 37, she probably heard about the sinking of the Titanic. She witnessed WW1, WW2, the moment cities in Europe started using electronic lighting, Elvis, Disco, Rock, Techno.. I mean she lived to 1997! 122 years for that matter. Can you imagine how long that is!? It's a ridiculous amount of time. She went from being transported in horse drawn wagons, to motorised wagons to a modern car.. People wore hats in her childhood! And her adulthood. And the start of post-adulthood.
I'm gonna stop talking about hats now.

Life is neither long or short, it is determined by how long you live.

And how you live it.
If you have too much fun, it might be over all to quickly.

So do something very boring and you'll live forever!
