Anonymous Coward User ID: 49858891 United States 11/17/2013 08:39 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I was just listening/reading an audio of Seneca on the shortness of life Quoting: Anonymous Coward 45256452 I listened the french version :LA briefete de la vie par seneque . Its an amazing book ,made realise how much time I wasted on stupid thing/activities. Here a little paste from Google.... SENECA ON THE SHORTNESS OF LIFE (trans. John W. Basore) I. The majority of mortals, Paulinus, complain bitterly of the spitefulness of Nature, because we are born for a brief span of life, because even this space that has been granted to us rushes by so speedily and so swiftly that all save a very few find life at an end just when they are getting ready to live. Nor is it merely the common herd and the unthinking crowd that bemoan what is, as men deem it, an universal ill; the same feeling has called forth complaint also from men who were famous. It was this that made the greatest of physicians exclaim that "life is short, art is long;" it was this that led Aristotle, while expostulating with Nature, to enter an indictment most unbecoming to a wise man - that, in point of age, she has shown such favour to animals that they drag out five or ten lifetimes, but that a much shorter limit is fixed for man, though he is born for so many and such great achievements. It is not that we have a short space of time, but that we waste much of it. Life is long enough, and it has been given in sufficiently generous measure to allow the accomplishment of the very greatest things if the whole of it is well invested. But when it is squandered in luxury and carelessness, when it is devoted to no good end, forced at last by the ultimate necessity we perceive that it has passed away before we were aware that it was passing. So it is - the life we receive is not short, but we make it so, nor do we have any lack of it, but are wasteful of it. Just as great and princely wealth is scattered in a moment when it comes into the hands of a bad owner, while wealth however limited, if it is entrusted to a good guardian, increases by use, so our life is amply long for him who orders it properly. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 498050 United States 11/17/2013 09:06 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | My wife convinced me when I was turning 29 that I was turning 30. I nearly freaked until I did the math. 30 was the hard one for me. I was on a roll through 40 and 50, and now at 60 I'm just hitting stride. Time is fleeting, life is short to waste it on trivialities. I have no regrets and feel my best days are ahead of me. I finally got off the couch and away from the boob tube and am doing things I really enjoy. Life is as good as you make it. |

Thank you. ^^^^^ What she said!^^^^^ But don't be too brutal on him. Might hurt his feelings and he'll become a criminal because someone picked on him and it'll be all our faults. Then they'll raise our insurance rates to pay for his therapy. So OP... Good Job!! The important point is you tried and felt it wasn't correct plus you got to express yourself. That will help you immensely in real life. There, let it be known that I am absolved of any future monetary recompense. Tax dudes... ya got that? I'm mostly pickin' OP, all in fun. |
