We love those who treat us right and hate those who treat us wrong! We build our lives and grow with time as an individual but we often put ourselves in the hands of others.

We fall so deep into the well of emotions that we forget the way out, we fall deep into our own expectations. We put ourselves into the hands of others and while some might drop rose petals over your head others might just feel like a hailstorm.


Does living your life for others make your life have meaning? If you breathe for yourself but live for someone else is it worth it? Is it worth it if you lie in bed sometimes and think you weren't worth it?

While some might say that it is important to live for yourself but even more important to live for others because love, care, and sacrifice is what makes one realize the true importance of something in your life. And to hold the most essential people or objects in life you have to make sacrifices.


Nevertheless, some might say that it is essential to prioritize yourself over others. While others might give you the joy of life, the joy of living can only come from self. Well, you must be wondering what is the difference between the "joy of life" and "joy of living", well the joy of life is what I believe those emotions and those moments which make you forget everything when with the people you love but the joy of living is when you take each step for yourself. Others' progress and others success make you happy because you know that you are still growing and nothing around you can stop that. You feel powerful being who you are. The joy in living for yourself and acknowledging that living with each goal.When you truly love yourself and appreciate yourself, your efforts, and know your worth.


While the difference in opinion may occur one has to decide by themselves who do they wanna live for? There is no right or wrong to this question, there is only an answer which you will find suitable for yourself. It's up to you which side do you wanna pick and understand "Does living your life for others make your life have meaning?"
