    I have to admit I'm surprised by how many people see the world this beautiful. I really don't see why someone would like the world this much. eihter something's wrong with me or where I live, we have too many restrictions over here in Iran, not being able to be with oposite gender might be one of them.

    Life is a precious gift that should be enjoyed and cherished. So many people have their lives cut short for whatever reason. Giving life is a beautiful thing. The days that my children came into this world are the best days of my life. They have blessed my life in so many way. Life truly is quite beautiful thing.

    I agree with you on that part, having children is sweet, I get excited when I see cute little children but being alone, meaning not having them is really bad.

    Why on earth is not having children "really bad"? I'm struggling to understand this.

    I can sort of see your viewpoint in a way that we need to continue our species and continue the bloodline, but it all comes down to personal preferences, you know, some people might not want to have children at all and that doesn't make them bad in my eyes, it's just their choice.

    When a single mother who is addicted to heroin and on every type of Government assistance known to man, gives birth, yes, it's about the most evil thing she could do. Why on earth would a person bring a child into this world under those conditions?

    I get your point actually. For instance, my uncle and his wife had just had a child. She's a beautiful baby girl. But her birth is not that normal, she was born almost blind, one eyelid doesn't open up and the other eye is filled with white covering. Add to that, her parents don't even took her to the hospital (she was given birth in a lying in clinic) for a checkup immediately. Without our urges and financial help, we wouldn't even know the diagnosis by now.

    So yeah, giving birth might not be necessarily evil. But it can be, if you cannot take care of your child properly or burden them with problems at such a young age. We see so many beggars, snatchers, robbers and addicts that are kids here. Do you blame them? No, you blame the parents, for not feeding them properly, providing their needs etc. If we cannot provide for our kids, then we should not really engage in anything that could result in having a kid.

    I love this. Life is what you make of it! You only live once so do what makes you happy and have no regrets. Its your life to live. When my mom was laying on her death bed she said she regretted that she didn't do more in her life. She said if she had to live all over again there were so many things she would have done like travel more, see more of the world. She was 83 when she passed and I know she lived a long life but she was always one of these people who lived her life to please others. She put everybody first before herself. Those words she spoke to me before she passed has stayed with me. When my time comes I don't want to leave this world with regrets. I live my life to the fullest and make the most of every day. We never know when it will be our last.

    Perhaps it could be where you are from, if you truly are not happy there. It is much different in other countries. I don't know too much about your countries and restrictions. Why are you not allowed to be with the opposite gender? Maybe someday you could work on immigrating to another country where you could be happier and enjoy life a bit more!

    I think life is a bit like the weather. It tends to balance out. If one day you have a super bad day, the next day or the day after will be good. It seems like everything in this life is cyclical, and realizing this, and going with it...ie roll with the punches, allows you to realize...this too shall pass. So, don't be disheartened, you will find something better soon.
