Why are we fighting to live when we live to fight?

First , the priority is to 'live'. And that has become very tough indeed. A number of things, beyond our control ,seem to make our living a very difficult one.War, Terrorism, Disease, natural disasters ... you name them ... they are all arraigned to make us fight every day to survive.

Once the survival becomes a possibility, we want to retain that possibility at any cost. . Having used to fighting for survival , we make it our full time to fight , with or without a cause.We live with this phoebia of attack all the time . The governments, the media , whip up our fear many fold and we are sucked into this vicious circle.

If you know something about the ethnic problems in the Island country ( and a beautiful one at that) of sriLanka you will know the real meaning of your own question.... fighting to live or living to fight.

Because nobody is going to fight for us ....

Because life is not a bed of roses

its in human nature to fight...may it be to achieve anythin becoz nothing comes easy in todays world friend...

One of lifes' great mysteries.
