Does anything really matter?

[Meursault]

what matters is the story you see of your own life on your deathbed. Live your live the way you want it to be. Its never too late to start either. Most people are afraid of change and are too hung up on their past to focus on their future. They spend most of their lives dreaming and hoping.

In my life at the moment it is raining heavily and I have no dancing shoes!

In my life at the moment it is raining heavily and I have no dancing shoes!

Whereas the optimist would say.
I am Glad I have no dancing shoes, now I can feel the rain between my toes.
Make the most of what you have in life.
You could spend all day dreaming about winning the lotto,
while that 2 euro coin in your pocket could bring hours of pleasure

[Clueless]

I'm not a pessimist but also don't want anyone to piss on me and tell me it is raining - so to speak -like

That's called water sports and some people pay big money for it,
whereas you are getting it for free
You see there is always an optimistic viewpoint.
Life is too short for anything except family and fun.

You are taking the piss now!

[Naughtynatalie]

The past is history
The future a mystery
Today is a gift
That's why it's called the Present

[happygolucky]

You are taking the piss now!

You see now I am getting water sports for free
Can you imagine the indignation of all those Dommes that charge for it.
