Live your Life to the Full

Jesus came to educate us on a topic we knew very little about - morality. This thing is what makes us happy. It is a fundamental human need, to be surrounded by people with moral values. Otherwise, we function in a way that is primitive to the point of animalistic.

Living life to the full stems from this. To live life to the full one needs to be able to make connection with other human beings, and that requires morality. Before his death and resurrection Jesus gave us the stepping stones towards morality and becoming a fulfilled human being.

A totally fulfilled human being is a rare thing. Few people manage this feat, namely Siddartha Gautama (the Budda) and a number of other religious. However, that doesn't mean that it's impossible to become fulfilled. All it requires is to follow the teachings of your respective religion (without going overboard) in following a peaceful and honest life. Jesus wanted this, Mohammed wanted this and Siddhartha Gautama wanted this.

The Christian pathway is Jesus's response to the problem of immoral life. It is simply that:

• A person should treat others as he/she wants to be treated.
• A person should have self respect.
• A person should be good to the poor.

By following these beliefs a person should become more fulfilled.

Two rules to live by.

#1) Nothing Comes from Nothing. Push yourself.

If you don't exercise, you don't get fit. If you don't study, you don't pass. Without pushing oneself, nothing will occur. This piece of wisdom can be seen in almost everything in life. Great buildings require hard work and perseverence to make, and-god forbid, the wars required a lot of personal courage to win for millions of people. If we as a society do not push ourselves we do not amount to anything.

#2) Help others in need.

This one has been repeated by almost every religious leader in the world in some form or other. Those in need may include the homeless, the disabled, the sick, the poor, the outcast. Go into your local community and provide help to everyone that needs it, irrellivent of who they are or "whether they deserve it".
