Definition of a 'full' life...?

Quite often when someone older passes on...I hear people will say..."He/she had a full life"...

But this makes me confused...and I do have a couple of questions...
1) is there an age limit or minimum (60, 70, 90...) to say a person had his/her life?,
2) will we ever be 'ready' (and not referring to religion or psychological, illness), to die..., and
3), what is the definition of a 'full' life for You?

A full life lived in courage,no fear,risk taking,lived in the moment.

Leaving this world a better place,without regrets,nothing unsaid,nothing unforgiven.
Hey Cc hug ... thank you for your input..., but having said that and the point that we are all only human... do you think we ever get to that point to say we are ready to Leave? sad flower
LFA I've been saying for some time that I'm ready to leave this world anytime.

I've never been afraid of dying cause I know it is obviously going to happen someday.I've pretty much lived my life the way I have chosen to live it.

So! If you ever leave this planet earth. How would we know that! You are gone?! Will you post a blog to let us know?!...popcorn

confused Maybe it means! A person that have lived a long long time.

Also some people lives a long time. But! Suffer from some type of illness while living. So! Would that still mean, a full life. Or just here until the end?! Hmmm

I've also lived my life to the full ..Many adventures and experiences gained along the way..knowledge and wisdom acquired and put to good used etc...
Maybe there is still something missing in it ?
And hope to find it before I pass ??
But I will certainly go with no regrets ..no resentment having forgiven all the ones I had to forgive .

"what is the definition of a 'full' life for You?"

A person that has made the most of life's opportunities that presented themselves.

I do not consider age to be a factor, in many instances (like my own) a "full" life has been achieved at an early age, the after years are a consolidation and appreciation of the life one has experienced.
A Full Life Is What "Nature"
Or The Man Upstairs Has decided Upon
Some Live Into Their 100s
Others ..Not So Long
so
A Full Life Can be Any Amount Of Years

And Any amount Of Years Is A Full Life.............detective
Hope you Find What Youre lookin For
Out of Ten
He Should be In There Somewhere..........detective
Definition of a 'full' life...? -making all the mistakes possible to man, and live long enough to learn from it!grin cool wine
-or maybe that should be, -live long enough to tell about it!laugh bouquet
Yeah Nam .... with my luck there will be more cow than man... laugh
Hi LfA...

I dot think there is an age limit to say a person had their life... imo, when we say they had their life, means they have passed through many kind of life problems which make them tough which finally they are happy life or even die in sad ending.

I think no one will be ready to die... and so do I
full life is not measure by length of year.
how many time we live joyful and comfort happy life.
it's called full life in my views.
if we count year in laying bed with sick
it's not include in life.
Hi LfA,

1) No age limit in my opinion as some folk that has passed from terminal illness has found acceptance, contentment and peace at a very young age.

2)No. Its human nature to cling hope to the last moment. No one 'wants' to give up.

3)My definition of a full life is living a healthy, happy life and dying peacefully in your sleep with your dog at your feet.

dunno wine
A full life is the admiration of your grandchildren. When younger generations look upon you and yours with respect then you have lived rightly.

Time is the trial of all things, history is the judge, and posterity is the jury.
