LIFE
The most important thing in life is…
I woke up today and as usual, I was browsing Reddit, Twitter, and Instagram like everyone does and I happened to find out that Shailene Woodley who, by the way, looks absolutely gorgeous has posted a story on Instagram about a new movie which is released today on Netflix which is “Love Wedding Repeat” starring Sam Claflin.
So as a huge fan of Shailene I immediately jumped into and watched it while my mom was angry with me. (FYI: She is not in the movie!)
It was a good movie, you can watch it once.
If you’re asking how this movie is related to the most important thing in life, well it’s not, but hear me out.
In the movie, Bryan tells something to jack and that’s the best part of the entire movie. Which goes something like this.
We’re all lucky, Have you ever thought how much small the chances are of you being born? If one thing in history had changed, if one of your ancestors wouldn’t have crossed path then you wouldn’t exist, You would’ve never even lived a single day! It’s pretty scary but it all comes down to chances, and life is about grabbing those chances when it comes out.
According to scientists with all their math and science probability of your being born at about one in 400 trillion now, That’s a very huge number. Think about it, I’ll let it sink for a moment.
Here’s a funny one that I found on HuffPost —
So what’s the probability of your being born? It’s the probability of 2.5 million people getting together — about the population of San Diego — each to play a game of dice with trillion-sided dice. They each roll the dice — and they all come up the exact same number — say, 550,343,279,001.
A miracle is an event so unlikely as to be almost impossible. By that definition, I’ve just proven that you are a miracle.
Now go forth and feel and act like the miracle that you are.
I just realized that the probability of me having a pet animal is ZERO!.
Okay I guess, I’ve made my point that we each one of us, are a miracle. Now on to the next most important thing, what’s the most important thing in life?
I’ve read a lot of blogs on this before writing and most of those blogs came down to things like health, water, food, shelter, pizza, and other stuff, you get the point right?
This really is a tough question and for me, it comes down to Parents and Yourself.
Parents because (I don’t have to give reasons, there no competition)— they are the reason that you are even alive don’t forget that and the number of things that a parent does to a child, it can never be paid back. Love and respect your parents, they spent their entire life building yours.
Yourself — As you already know that you’re a miracle and you should be thankful. Learn to love yourself, enjoy yourself, be happy with yourself and don’t give a fuck what other people think about you. So Love yourself, you are all you got!
In the movie, Bryan says that life is all about grabbing those chances or opportunities which also reminded me of this song by Ludacris — “Rest Of My Life” and one of the lines goes like, “What the hell is a life worth living if it’s not on the edge”.
Even the movie “Dead Poets Society” also talks about it —Carpe diem, seize the day. Seize the day people, what’s the worst thing that can happen? The answer is Nothing, Absolutely Fucking Nothing.
Enjoy your life while you are still alive!
