so what's my objective for today's post? well, i hope i find one soon. Lo and behold, I happen to see this sentence on my cousin's msn nick. He says: at least now I know something I didn't thought I didn't knew then.
meanwhile i'll just share smth.
I came across a sentence that says, "I always try to enjoy life to the most." and as I was reading it, the word "enjoy" strucked me as I thought to myself, shouldn't it be "live"?
as was thinking how true that statement is about me, then something strucked me again, about the difference between those two words.
Enjoy. And, Live.
"why didn't the person use 'live' instead of 'enjoy'?", I wondered.
and so the meanings of those two words flowed into my mind. I felt revelationized.
-If one says he wants to enjoy his life to the most means that he is seeking for pleasure, and probably laid-backness of his soul wouldn't be something he will be bothered of.
-But if one says he wants to LIVE his life to the most, it means something else. more than just enjoyment in life but it's also about giving all he could do as a commitment, willingly submitting himself to a greater cause.

so it came down to this: which one am I?
well which one do you guys think?
I will blame no one who thinks that I'm trying to enjoy my life.
Cos I think it's true, now that there's a separating of the mixture of those two words. I guess what I thought of how I live my life was trying to live it to the fullest. Which actually the word "fullest" can be broken down into two different words which are "enjoyment" and "living". Or, it might also be a matter of living to the fullest of what exactly? I guess I either had filled up the blank with "enjoyment", or somewhere in my decision making I was too careless to spot a difference and just went forth with what I thought was what I thought which was good. And as I keep doing it over and over again eventually it becomes automatic, and the next time I won't have to even think before I act. I just do it when I felt it......
