| Happiness! /You're really on a roll arn't you? Making so many new threads. |
 |
| Crap I voted 'There is no value in life' I wanted 'Producing off-spring to continue one's legacy' or 'Happiness' ;3 Oh well. |
     我爱你 |
| Prolong my life or die trying. |
 |
| Love... Happiness... or offspring.... 3-way-tie but I could use a little love as of now... |
| I'll Never look back, I've got no regrets 'Cause time don't wait for me I choose to go my own way Click here to go to my review channel. Click here to go to my music channel. |
| For the moment i'd say happiness, as that is something i am lacking.... |
| Fame; an ever-lasting name. Life is meaningless if you just live it. You have to make something out of it. Of course, happiness is important too, but I wouldn't be happy on my death bed knowing that no one would ever remember who I was or what I did. |
 |
| Happiness ~ If you dont have happiness, you cannot live a proper life. You cannot understand your fame , you cannot fap , you cannot think , you cannot prolong life etc etc. XD |
| I put "There's no value in life." It was the one closest to my opinion. Life only has value if you give it value. What you do with it while your alive makes it more valuble, or less for that matter. Life is what you make it, if you choose do sit in a dark room seperated from everyone, your life has no value, but if you go out there and do something it does. Think of it in a way WoW players can understand...xD...You start off with a lvl 1 human Warlok. Obviously it has no value, but over time, you lvl and gear it up. now your lvl 70 with teir 7 gear, this makes the value amazingly high. Or you can have a lvl 70 in all greens with little to no dps what so ever, this makes it not very valuable. Requal said: Death is the destiny of mankind. I'm immortal :P, no death here xD |

| why isn't anime on this poll D: ? ah well, looks like i'll have to choose fappin... jk, i voted happiness |
| I can't really pick one, since a lot of those options are interdependent, but I think that knowing the truth behind the Universe would probably contain most of them indirectly. There are many incredible things all around us that are definitely worth a little of my time and effort to understand ^^ |

| I picked happiness. If you have to deal with life, you might as well find ways to enjoy it :) |
| lolwut fappin? I know thats going to be somebody's whole post... Sure, I chose fappin, but really the most important thing in life is to be happy. What's the point of life if you don't enjoy it? |
 Felli disapproves of this thread. |
| If there only were a mix of "Happiness","Love", "Enjoyment" and "Producing offspring blabla"... I call it "LovHapEnOff". |

 "Sanity is overrated." |
| How about we look at the question another way... If you were on your deathbed, would you be satisfied that you placed _________ (i.e. happiness, enjoyment, love, truth, God, offspring, fappin') first your whole life? |
| I'd say happiness, definitely. |
| As Sakinho said, a lot of the choices on the poll are dependent on other things. I believe that it is important for one to enjoy their life, as they will only get one; I believe it is actually possible for one to enjoy their life without any external forces, someone can be homeless and living in the streets, and still possibly enjoy their lives. I also think that it is very important to be happy in your life, happiness can sometimes be very dependent on external forces such as love and money. Some people feel the happiest when they know that they are loved by someone, and if something happens to the one they loved, or the person no longer loves them, it can be as if your happiness is suddenly taken from you. Some people believe that you can buy happiness with money, and some cases it is true; even though people can be happy without a lot of money, it is hard to be very happy if you have very little money as things such as food and shelter become scarse. However, there are people to whom money or love may mean little to them and are able to be happy without either. To me, fame means absolutely nothing. I do not care if people remember my name after I'm gone, as long as I end up living my life to it's potential by the time of my death, that is all that matters. I personally do not care about prolonging my life longer than a normal lifespan, I never really have wanted to live all that much longer than 60 to be honest, though to me that may be a bit old (no offense intended to anyone, it is just what I feel). The advancement to mankind or producing offspring to continue a legacy is also not one of the things that I am concerned with as of now, no I am not saying I would not want to have kids sometime down the road, but it is not important to me since I am still fairly young. I am also not a religious person, so the devotion to God does not apply in my case. Yes, I know that there are some very religious people whom live their lives according to the Bible or whatever religion they follow. I believe I have addressed every item on the poll except for 'there is no value in life' which I disagree with. As for my vote I think I will have to go with either happiness or love. |

Time, uncertain. That's why you make the most of your life. Since you don't know when your going to die, just do it all. I mean, I myself find alot of the things I do rather simple and easy. School for instance, people makes bad or average grades because they take it for granted and think it's a waste of time. I "used" to make Cs because it was too easy and I didn't feel like doing it. Now I'm making all A's because I realized that even though it doesn't give me a challenge, it gives me more of a challenge then I have not doing it. Life it self has no value it start. It's what you do with it. Will you discover everything there is to know about everything? Who knows, you might acend to some higher being and be all knowing. The future is constantly changing and is uncertian. Just have to make the most with what you have and go out and do what ever. |

| I chose "Love," which for me also correlates with "Happiness" and "To reach for the Truth behind the universe." |
  |
| Fappin' = Happiness + Enjoyment |
| To reach for the Truth behind the universe. If there is no truth beyond mere existence then there is no value to life, which is something I just don't want to accept. In case you're wondering, no I haven't found it yet (I consider myself to be agnostic.) I see a lot of people chose happiness. While it's true that I wouldn't want to be unhappy, I think I get along just fine with simple contentment. Gee, this kind of makes me sound like some kind of weird monk or something. Maybe I should go sit on a mountain somewhere :-) |
| I was on the border of happiness and enjoyment, which I think are very similar, but I guess they have their differences. But other than that, I would love to be a legend. Having an everlasting name would be my greatest goal, but probably an impossible dream |
| I think out of those - happiness.. I just want to live a happy life with my friends & family.. And you can pretty much become happy thru money, fame, and love o.0 |
 |
| 1. Crush my enemies. 2. Have them driven before me. 3. Hear the lamentation of their women. 4. Complete my Urusei Yatsura DVD collection. |
  |
| To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of the women. |
 |
| Happiness is clearly the most important. Most of those other things contribute to happiness (fapping included). |
| A lot of those listed are still really important to me but if I had to choose, I would choose love because at this point I really can't imagine life without the love of my fiance, family and friends. |
     |
| Happiness and Enjoyment are really simialar. IMO this needed a "Find peace with oneself" (or something of the like) option. Would have done that. /No vote. I'm kind of suprprised there isn't a "Watch every single anime/read ever manga/speak/read fluent Japansese/live in Japan etc..." (basically complete otakuness" option. |

| I chose happiness, it's fitting for someone like me that isn't going into a field that would further technology/advance mankind, but I feel that is extremely important as well. |

| "To advance mankind." is the best. Spontaneity with friends and Selflessness towards others advances mankind. Scientific rigor advances mankind. Competition for resources, overpopulation, and profit margins do NOT advance mankind. Enjoyment, Happiness and Love is all part of Spontaneity and Selflessness. There is no God except for the beautiful warmth glowing in our hearts. There is no life after death except in the limitless creativity of our imagination. (There's nothing wrong with embracing that warmth and limitless creativity) |

| Aren't happiness and enjoyment the same thing? Also, wouldn't some of the other options fall under happiness? One's idea of happiness could be any number of things, even love. I voted for happiness. |
| Thanks for clearing that up. Still needs a peace option. |

| most important in life is ...... life. I think the question is what should do in this life. edit: and how you want to enjoy it. |

| Hapiness!!! |
 |
| Love, man. All you need is love.... |
 |
| The most important thing in life is being happy. I've got all types of opinions about this but I don't really want to take the time to write them out here. So basicaly that's all I'm going to say. |
| Happiness/enjoyment of life. If you don't have that then what's the point in being alive? Depressed people are pathetic. What's the point of life if you don't enjoy it? Exactly |
