Source language: Turkish

Hayat bir oyun gibi. Sürprizlerle dolu. Ne zaman ne getireceği hiç bilinmiyor. Çünkü her şey insanlar için. Ne üzülmeye değiyor yaşamak, ne de mutluluğa. Çünkü iyi kötü her şey elbet bir gün bitiyor. Sadece bu anı yaşamak önemli. Ve kendi varlığını hissetmek. Hepsi bu.
Remarks about the translation
konuşma diliyle yazılmasını tercih ederim.

Life is...
Translation
English

Translated by cheesecake
Target language: English

Life is like a game. It's full of surprises. It isn't known what it will bring or when. Because everything is for human beings. Neither getting upset nor getting happy is worth. Because both good and bad things absolutely come to an end one day. It is only important to enjoy the time, feeling your own existence. That's all.

Ops! I made stupid mistakes, thank you for the corrections, lilian

Because everything is for human beings, that means all the things in life, I mean death, happiness, sadness, success, failure etc. all kinds of things happen for human beings, so everything is for humans. In the Turkish text, it also gives the same explanation.

I still don't get it, I'll set a poll and see is someone comes up with a better sentence, OK?
Perhaps: "Because all happens to human beings"?

OK, sure.
"Because all happens to human beings" also gives the same explanation you are right.

But I think "enjoy the time" is a phrase, so "live the time" is too much Turkish translation. I am almost sure about this sentence of the translation.

as you know . "enjoy" and "live" have not the same meaning.

Of course I know, but this is the word combination used for "anı yaşamak" in Turkish. It doesn't have to give the exact meaning of "enjoy". I support that even we can say "seize the day" or "carpe diem", for the same sentence, because they are idioms.
But thank you anyway, maybe we should listen to the thoughts of the other friends
