Is life really short or long? hmmm... Good Question

I got the idea of this post from my new friend ( Just Like That - http://noblese.blogspot.com/). Life is short or long is all depend on how you live it. if you are happy you will feel it too short. if you are miserable then it's gonna be too long. I am not gonna publish my post until I hear from you. I just want to hear from everbody who visits my blog this week regardless of my viewpoint. The question is; can we challenge our circumstances? Can we change our moods? If we are passing through a stressful phase of our life can we recall those happy moments that reside in our memories just to counteract our current saddness? If we have a bad luck can we challenge it with working harder and improve our skills more or this generation is all mana7ees? If we can not have what we wish can we shrink our ambitions to fit our abilities and resources? If we are missing some of the basic human needs can we displace it with creating new ideas and developing future solutions? Can we still identify the white color if we are forced to wear a black glasses?

Who won and who lost?

Finally, the South Korean hostages will be released by Taliban within 4 days. The South Korean statement read: "The Taliban agreed to free the 19 South Korean hostages on the condition that South Korea withdraws its troops within this year and halt missionary activities."
Who lost more in this Dirty game. S. Korea or Taliban? of course taliban. They lost the power of this card. I dont think they will gamble again by keeping hostages. Who is the big winner? The Afghani Goverment. They insisted on no exchange of hostages versus Taliban prisoners and they won the race.
