    Here you can post some messages of inspiration to encourage good things, help people out, and not make them feel alone.

    So, most people here on the forums are gamers. I'm sure you've heard of people saying to you or to others that you have no life. Living your life is doing things that you love to do.

    Every single person here tries things out, makes mistakes and tends to fail. Don't be afraid of adventure. Those who show a dislike towards things you do are jealous - They're jealous because they can never experience what you experienced. They're too caught up in popularity and care too much about what people think about them.

    I'd like to also grab some status' from my profile that I think are worthy of a mention.

    When people try to tell you what's real and not real..I'm not f*ing hijacked Peeta.
    This to me pretty much means that people can't tell you when you're lying. Since when do they have more authority into saying what's true? Everyone has had a lie in their life. It could be them lying, coming across a lie, etc. A lot of the time, those who tell others that they're lying have nothing to do with the situation. Also, they, in no way, are/could be harmed from the 'lie.' So what if it's a lie? They should just move on from it like a mature person - I love the hypocrisy when they tell you that you're immature.

    Yea I can act like I'm up myself. But, at least I'm grateful to my parents for making me who I am and letting me live the life I'm living.
    Calling someone a b* or a s*...you're just being up yourself as well because you're trying to make them seem less than you.

    I'd like to talk about "being up yourself." Let's be honest. There's really no problem with someone being up themselves. Yes, it can be annoying. But, do you think trashing them over social networking and stuff is going to help them? Those people should be approached calmly - an example should be set. Talk it through with them. If they don't want to cooperate, LEAVE it. Let them be who they want to be. Ignore it, because you're just going to end up seeming as much of a 'bad' person you think they are.

    Once I get my Internet working better, etc, I do hope to start a channel and work with some people in trying to improve 'the self.' An issue - well, there's more branching off from this - has developed where people are letting themselves down by influences of the ever-changing culture in this society and the Internet. I really hope that everyone here can be safe and happy. So, I thought that we could come together and share some inspiration. If you want you could even tell us more about yourself. Please, do not offend anyone. It should all be general and indirect. Accept everyone's messages here and don't criticise unless it's constructive.
    Constructive criticism is not telling someone what is right and wrong - remember that. It's constructing suggestions and perspective to improve something.

    I think a good question for us to answer is "What is the meaning of life?"
    I don't think it's possible to say it in one sentence.

    I'll tone down a bit more serious and not make a "Ball is life" joke here, I will save that for a different time.

    What is the meaning of life? To live, of course. Live every moment like you've never lived it before and you're never going to live it again, because it's kind of true. Every moment you live is worth saving, good or bad. Most people haven't lived enough to remember anything but "that time my post got 50 likes" or "that time a famous person liked my photo" and it depresses my quite a bit. Go camping with your friends, you'll never forget it. Go on a road trip with your family, the photos you take are worth lifetimes.

    Sometimes I refer to our generation as "Survivors in silver skins", and I mean it quite literally. We survive, but barley. Socially, that is. We are al becoming more and more addicted to our electronics (touchè, I'm writing this on a computer) and we are forgetting how to communicate. It;s fine if you're introverted, or just lack social skills but spending your entire day inside is inhumane man.

    I kind of just wish we could understand one thing: Life is so fucking precious, don't waste it. "Survivors in silver skins": Humans in machines. Machine like behaviour in the beings that created them. Weird, isn't it?

    Deep shit aside just live life man, and don't ask why.

    I have a school camp next week. Every single person is complaining that there's no reception there and that they don't want to communicate and bond with each other in person. Meanwhile I'm just so hyped and ready for it. It's sad how Internet has been taking over our generation's lives in a way. A lot of people are scared I think and they shouldn't.

    Thank you for being brave and participating in this thread :)

    Tbh I don't think I am able to answer what the meaning of life is. I think you don't understand life until you've experienced death.
    I just haven't found it fully yet because I haven't lived long enough to know.

    Here is my serious answer.

    I believe the question "What is the meaning of life?" is a question meant not to be answered and those who know the answer are not around to indulge human kind with such greatness to know the meaning of life is so sought after that it cant be reached until death. Those who know the answer to a question ages old aren't around to answer though they know. When the epiphany is reached you pass on to the world of the next. To know the answer and still live would be enlightenment. So there for theoretically the Question "What is the meaning of life?" will never have and answer known to living human kind. Those who have passed will know and at that point it's a token showing you have lived now you know why.

    As cheesy as it sounds, be yourself
    I met a group of people recently who allowed me to feel myself 100%. Don't try and be popular or change yourself or suck up to someone because honestly it feels so much better when you don't and less stressful. Dress for yourself, watch those movies you like, and be friends with whoever not because they're cool or something, but because they're a good friend.

    Stop giving so much shits what people think of you. Honestly, I still care what some people think of me, but when I stopped caring what the general public thought of me I made so many friends because I had the confidence to go up to people and say hi and if they thought I was weird, so what?

    Anyways, I'm saying don't spend so much time trying to please and impress people until you've learned to be happy with yourself, because the real version of a person is always so much better
