    I don't like feeling separate from everybody else, having to take a dump and wipe myself everyday, getting old and developing diseases and body problems. The only sort of secure pleasure in life is eating something you think is good tasting, other than that, life doesn't offer very much pleasure, you just try to avoid dying and being in pain. Some music is pleasurable, and some jokes are good, but nothing fantastic. You know, there's always the "more" that you constantly think there is and that you're missing which invalidates and discredits anything enjoyable in your life in the few times you might enjoy something.

    I am within the meaning of life. What i like most of human is its rational being and the least is being egoistic and greedy.

    Thanks for asking. Have a great day!

  • I like that humans have the ability to change their fate, knowing or predicting the future, unlike animals. But unlike animals, I hate the fact that I am part of a species that is the most wasteful. 16

    I'm 17. And I don't like being human at all. What I like least about being human is that we all try to make it seem we are better than one another when we aren't. As for what I like the best... is the friends I have.

    I love surfing.....

    Just shoving my board down while riding a wave, preparing for a turn, the weight shift, the carve, the spray, beating the wave with subtle swift movements...no feeling comes near it.

    (I'm quite the fanatic. Can't help it.)

    What I dislike, the uncertainty of life.

    We keep growing, aging, evolving....and I wonder where it ends....with death obviously but what does that feel like?

    Is it infinitely painful?

    is it simply unconsciousness?

    Who knows, but you can never go backwards, you keep growing and that scares the **** out of me.

    It's like the universe is in a never-ending expansion.

    It's this uncertainty of existence itself that I hate.

    And we hate only what we fear.....

    What I like MOST about being human is the ability to feel love. What I like LEAST about being human is the ability to feel love. Love is such a strong emotion, it can make you or break you, if you let it. I am 54.

    my human nature..the flesh..its like the Apostle Paul said..what i will to do that i do not do, but that which i will not to do, that i do..

    also the self-centeredness..

    what i like most is the ability to have a relationship with God..

    to trust in Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior

    to repent (turn away from sin)

    and have God as my Father!

    i'm 18
