The Meaning of Life


Life is full of mysteries.

It is a mystery in itself.

Life is a gift

that when given

should be appreciated.

 

You cannot understand life,

for it has a mind of its own.

 

Life is merciless and fragile.

One wrong move

and life is gone forever.

 

Life does not take pity

nor does it rest.

It pushes onward

always

till it is forced from existence.

 

Life is an array of things.

Life is good,

         life is rough,

but above all

life is worth living.
