    Life is like......?

    A chisel: If you don't keep your back straight and your blade sharp, you are beaten on the head harder. If you are facing Leo, he might break you.

    A table saw: If your fence isn't square, your table isn't flat, you are likely to ruin your chances with precious lumber.

    A pile of good lumber: You can mill them and build your self a warm home or burn them and be warm for a few days and freeze afterward.

    A WWII saw blade: If you touted your virtue, you are held to a higher standard. If you don't deliver, you become Brad's laughing stock.

    For you, life is like.....?

    Life is like any tool, if you let it/yourself sit around, you get nothing done, if you put it/yourself to use, there are no limits.

    RE: Life is like......?

    Life is a grindstone. Whether it grinds us down or polishes us up depends on us.

    Life is like a tin of sardines - we're all looking for the key.

    Edit: My life is like a bottle of fine wine, it keeps getting better with age.

    I am a great believer in luck. The harder I work, the more of it I seem to have.

    Life is woodworking: If you don't continuously learn from your mistakes and improve yourself, it won't be very fulfilling.

    Life is like woodworking, if you don't learn from the mistakes of others you'll never have time to make them all yourself.

    a box of chocolates, you never know...Wait a minute! That's Forrest Gump's line.

    Let's see...Life is like woodworking. It's success is defined by how well you overcome your mistakes.
