Life is Short !!! Comments

I (Ivone Whie) like this quote and posted on my Wall:
Life is short, Break the rules, Forgive quickly, Kiss passionately, Love truly, Laugh constantly & never stop smiling.
No matter how strange life is. Life is not always the party we expected to be, but as long as we are here, we should smile & be grateful.
As always a wisdom is easier said than done, but all we can do is try our best to see it through, then we are already on the right track to happiness.

But My friend (LKS) commented as follows:
i like the quote but life is not short it you go through every moments of bitterness as well as moments of sweetness, promise can be broken but not rules, forgive quickly but not to forget immediately, kiss passionately but not too long otherwise you will be suffocated, love truly and devoted, Laugh and smile constantly but not continuously otherwise people think you are crazy.
Agree, life is no party but survival.......but no matter what happen today, tomorrow is a brand new day......happy days or sad days..... life goes on.

So here goes my RESPONSE to that comment:
Life is NOT short, true, but then it is made SHORT for us with burden of everyday's problem, stress and etc.
Break the rules, well, I wish it is as easy as it is. We even make up more rules to follow conciously or unconciously. Each time, our society met another problem, they will make up new rules and regulations. So, I would like to say to break the "RULES" that u made for your own self and bound yourself to nothingness. BTW, good luck with that one, coz I have no success even with my own self.
Forgive quickly and forget nothing is more unlikely, coz we don't want to get the heartbreak for the second time, or the third or the fourth. Thou sometimes we say "you are forgiven", half the time we don't really mean it. We just said that for the sake of good virtue, so people didn't say that we like to hold grudges, but in time, it will show out of us. My choice is we forgive when we want to, coz holding grudges will corrupt yourself more than it would hurt the receiving end. And About FORGETting, we are lucky that modern medical term now are familiar with the term of SELECTIVE MEMORY LOSS, so make us of it.
Kiss passionately, yes, I would like that, but then Continously is absurb, unless we can figure how to breath without losing contact (I'll let you know when I have figured it out :P).
Love truly, hmmm.... I do believe it and I refuse to do otherwise or I want to be LOVED TRULY for myself, so don't expect me to change too much.
Laugh constantly & never stop smiling, but all the time continously. There will be times that we find things to laugh about or people to smile to, easily. But the most important thing is to remember to do the laughs and smiles, even when you don't feel like it with all your problems and troubles that currently in life, not just for the sake of your families or friends who worry about your well being, but it is proven from time after time to be the best, cheapest stress relief and not to mention that it is the best nature given anti-aging medication

No matter how strange life is, oh yes, it is strange, for the best or worse, if you took time to think about it. Life is not always the party we expected to be, and that is also depends on individual perspectives (some even say that LIFE can be Merry-go-round or Roller coaster ride but as long as we are here, we should smile & be grateful and enjoy the ride that we have chosen.

As always a wisdom is easier said than done, but all we can do is try our best to see it through, then we are already on the right track to happiness, coz sadness or happiness is always self inflicted decision, conciously or otherwise.
