by CalebMy statement was mostly provocative, because how does one define a life that is fulfilled, rather than wasted?
It depends on the individual and their perspective. What to you may be a wasted life, to someone else may not be and vice versa. There is always someone worse off, so I believe in appreciating the life we have. It's not up to you or me to decide who has wasted their life and who hasn't. It's up to the person living it.
