Life is where we spend most of our time. Well, not really, because we spend a real lot of time dead. But we tend to remember our time alive better.

 Life is a work in progress. It can be as good or as bad as you make it. External influence does play a role in it, but in most cases, your own attitude is the defining thing.

 Many things can make your life better, and here I propose a few. There are more, and I will throw them in as I see fit. Friends are one of them. Don't expect to go through life without friends. It can be done, but it's a lot harder.
