What do you feel is the most important thing in life? What makes life meaningful? Does living a meaningful life necessarily mean being financially successful? Does not having a lot of money make you a failure as a person?

To me the most important thing in life is to be happy.I think that as long as you are happy with yourself and the people that sorrounds, you will have a meaningful and joyful life.I don't think that money can buy happiness or that if you have more money your life is more meaningful or more important than that of of a person that doesn't have any money.Not having any money doesn't make anybody a failure and actually,i know some poor people that are way happier than any rich people that i've ever met.To me life is just having a good time but without doing stuff that can hurt ourselves or other people.I come from a third world country and as a matter of fact i was kind of poor, but the thing is that now that my family is wealthier and i live here,i realized that my life was so much better when i was poor so i guess you don't know what you got until its gone.In conclusion life is what you make of it and if you have a positive attitude and never give up your life surely will be meaningful,successful and happy.
