im young but i been through more then most ppl i dont even like talking to ppl now i just listening to my music and walking around at 3-4am when its nice a quiet and just do my graffiti

so y do we fighting to live if we are living to die

Answer 1

Wow, I guess that quote I said applies to you too. Don't do graffiti. just live like everyone else. It doesn't mean you have to be like everyone else.. Go along for the ride. Make plans for the future.

Who knows? something great might come along that you didn't expect! That's what life's about.

Answer 2

Sounds like this came from a Tupac song.

Well because if you do the good fight, end the end the fight will be well worth it. Focus on your goal, see yourself there. See yourself in that good place with a big smile on your face and good all around you. See you future everyday in your mind. Then start moving yourself step by step towards that goal. Each that passes, know that, that brings you one day closer to your goal. One day in your future you will find yourself there.

Answer 3

like you have anything better to do right? why not stress out every day to see if your going to make it to next month or go broke with out food to see if your going to make it to the next day...what else do you have to do in life?

Answer 4

We're not living to die.  We're living because this is our one shot.  This is the only moment we ever get, right now.  Our time is now.  This is our one and only being.  Make the best of it.

Answer 5

i know the answer but you don't want to hear it

Answer 6

Wow he quotes tupac. I thought of that same thing listening to that song. Well I don't believe in going to heaven or h**l after death. But I am a christian. I just think its a dumb idea if we are already supposed to be judged on judgement day. So wouldn't goin to h**l or heaven already be judging u? And who told ppl that anyway? If they died how could they tell us what's waitin on the otha side? So ill just believe that death is a sleep with no dreams

Answer 7

You know some people say that values are subjective

But theyre just speaking words

That someone else has said

And so they live and fight and kill with no objective

Sometimes its hard to tell the living from the dead

Answer 8

you just said it.  we are doing both.

but we had no choice to live or be born, but we do have a choice to fight.

Answer 9

There's nothing wrong with Nihilism.

If nothing else, the meaninglessness is a good excuse to relax and keep walking around at predawn doing what you love.  Life's short and pointless, so do what makes you happy.

Answer 10

let me strt out by saying that life (on earth) is  a temporary condition, obvoiusly beggingn with birth and ending in " death" or out pasiing. well- we are given life as a gift- a gift of limited time on earth. i think that a productive life does one of 2 things ( this is just my opinion)

1-- one enjoys ones life to the fullest extent, just taking it day by day, but ot really caring anout too much but having fun and enjoying themselves.taking on challenges and having fun 2) one eases the pain or enriches the lives on others while they are on earth. or they might  set and reach goals to leave the world better or woth something more creative than was there when they came into it.

the want to not die-- or "fighting fo your life" is not only biologically prorammed into us, but if we can live, we can continue with our lives as i mentioned above. if we die we stop enjoying/helping those on earth and die, plus we dont know what is on " the other side" and i think that the fear of the unknown itself is enough to keep some ppl going, especially b/c of the fact that you will not see loved ones again forever or temporarily.

really i think that we are all born with a sense that we are here for something, even if we dont know what it is (yet). life might be a test of obstacles for God to see our reaction and our actions, and if we pass we get to go to Heaven.some may want to live as long as they can to do as much good and as little sin-- or at least repent them so that they can make it to Heaven.

for aethiests, they want to live to enjoy life, even if it sucks ots SOMETHING, which beats the NOTHING  that they beieve that htye do after they die. hope this helps. good luck.

Answer 11

ahhhh......the pungent aroma of nihilism is in the air.........

Answer 12

i dont know if anyone has a real answer for why we're here.

you have to find that out for yourself.
