Understanding Impermanence and Living Life to the Fullest

Impermanence means that life is finite and the time that we can really use is very limited. While we have to spend most of our life make a living, working for our family, we should make good use of our life and enhance the value of our life by having good intentions, speaking good words, and doing good deeds. If we can't do good deeds, at least we should make sure that people interacting with us don't suffer because of us.
