[VIDEO] Duncan Nugget® #202: Live Your Life

A few years ago, I saw the following statement on a student’s Facebook status:

“Oh I get it! The point of life is to live.” 

As you can imagine, his status immediately generated a couple of sarcastic comments:

“omg”

“lol”

“AHAHA you hit the nail on the head didnt you?”

People were clowning him and I’m not sure if he was serious or not , but that is a profound statement: the point of life is to live.

A lot of people spend their whole life dying. Dying from stupidity. Dying of mediocrity. Dying of boredom. Dying of loneliness. And the list goes on. They do nothing. They just fade away and completely waste a precious gift.

Enjoy your life.

Do something awesome with your life.

LIVE your life. You deserve it.

Million-Dollar Question:
