What does this statement mean, please explain, thank you?

Question

"No matter how long or short your life is, you'll have lived 100% of it. Nobody gets cheated."

Answer 1

We exist before physical birth and after physical death...

We create our lives, and this includes our birth and death...

An infant who dies at childbirth has still lived a meaningful life in the womb, yet many may feel the infant was robbed or cheated of its potential...they assume it was supposed to live 'to a ripe old age'...they don't realize we set the stage of our life before our physical conception, and many, many times this may involve what seems to us to be a relatively brief lifespan, yet that brief period will have provided them with all the necessary experiences sought before-hand...they will have completed their mission, so to speak...

Everyone has their own reasons for choosing how long they will live...

-----Witchy Mel: I agree with you...we can always change our mind at any point in our life...

Answer 2

...your life has ended and now your dead...

Answer 3

It is all in divine right order. I have a son who died when he was 20 & believe me I felt cheated. Finally, I was able to see that I only thougth I was cheated. I worked with someone who could not get pregnant. At first I didn't think it was such a big deal but I wanted to be as compassionate as possible. During this process I came to see how lucky I was that I had my son for 20 years. I used to think about how unfair it was that I carried him for 9 months but now I see that I was so fortunate to have this love in my life. My son lived 100% of his life cause he did more in his life than most people. He didn't need to live another day to have anymore of an impact on me. His life was full. So I guess that is what the part of you lived in 100% means.

Answer 4

you lived the time you were meant to live.

Answer 5

people end up living their life the way they were suppose to?

Answer 6

LOL

You can't live 99% of your life unless you were in a coma. Just a dude quote. Like, dude "no matter how long or short your life is, you'll have.........." when you're high on weed with your buddies and believe you're Dr. Phil(osophical)

Answer 7

It means "No matter how long or short your life is, (you'll have lived 100% of it.) Nobody gets cheated."

it's a silly way of saying no one else can live your life for you and if your life lasts 20 years then you have lived 100% of it. If your life lasts only 10 years then you have still lived 100% of it.

there really isn't much wisdom in the statement if that's what you were looking for.

Answer 8

That it doesn't matter what length your life is, you will live the whole thing, because whenever you are not living then your life is clearly not continuing. If your life is 10 years, you will live 10 years (100% of it). Same if your life is 100 years.

Answer 9

basically it's saying, no matter how long you have lived, you haven't wasted a minute of it; you lived to the fullest.

Answer 10

When you die, you'll have lived more than 99% of it, and you can't have lived 101% of it because you will have died at 100%.  What part don't you understand?

Answer 11

Life, if you know how to live it, is long enough..

When you shoot an arrow, it really never gets to it's target, for it has to travel half the distance before it gets there, and then half the distance of that half, and so forth..............

Answer 12

It's almost ironic in nature. It basically states, if you've lived your life... you've lived your life.

This is really just one of those comments that make me think that there's no real depth to it other than the attempt at irony. It's telling you 1=1, the end.

Answer 13

You live until you die. The period between birth and death is what we call our life and you live all of it.

Answer 14

I think it means that there is no such thing as an untimely death, your life span is pre-determined.

I don't really agree, I think that there are 'windows' throughout a lifetime that a soul can choose to depart but that's not what you asked. *grins*

*edit*

I like Sunman's answer. I do think we choose our life and what we will experience.

Answer 15

life is life it can be interpreted as an axiom such as "I think therefor i am".

wiki: axiom

Answer 16

It's just clever claptrap. You get cheated by the priming imposed on you that causes you to fear and have regrets at the end.

The span is not as important as the quality.

Answer 17

Quite hard...but I think that means like "You live your life, I live my life." and "no one does not live their life" So whatever you do in your life, you are living your life. I think "Nobody gets cheated" means no one takes other people's life and live other people's life. So one people, one life.

Answer 18

its  really self explainitory

Answer 19

1 years/1 years = 100%

just like 100 years/100 years = 100%

If you die when you're a year old you lived your whole life.

If you die when you're 100 years old you lived your whole life.

Answer 20

Destiny, you'll live the life that was given to you, however long or short it is. And there is no more. You get what you get. Even if it is fair or not.

Answer 21

You die, when you're supposed to die. you lived your life as long as you were supposed to. what you learned or did while you were alive is exactly what you were supposed to. that was your purpose here in this world and you fufilled it. And it goes the same for EVERYONE.

Answer 22

all lives are different lengths but all are exactly as long as they are supposed to be, no one dies early or late, they go when they are supposed too and that is THEIR 100%

Answer 23

That's actually a math problem. Most people don't understand percentages. There is only 100%. 100% of one day old is one day. 100% of 99 years old is 99 years. It has no spiritual or philosophical meaning. If your life is wasted then you lived 100% of a wasted life.

Answer 24

that whatever you did in life is pernament and you can not change it and no matter how messed up or unfair it might seem it was made for you and you lived it

Answer 25

It means that you have been alive throughout your whole life.

You have existed each and every day, until it was your time to depart. One hundred percent of your life was lived by you, whether in full or not, whether happy or sad, whether short or long. No matter, it was still your life. If it was a short life, it was simply a short life and that's what was given. Short and happy, long and sad- nobody gets cheated, it simply is. It simply is your life. It implies that you just have to work with what you've got.You are responsible for living your live to the fullest, and if you don't, or if you never have the chance, or the means- then don't feel that you were cheated, because you still lived. You still were the one living it, each and every day.
