wHAT IS LIFE?
life ful of challege to face and trials.
“What is the meaning of life?” is a question many people ask themselves at some point during their lives, most in the context “What is the purpose of life?” Here are some of the many potential answers to this perplexing question:
Survival and temporal success
* …to accumulate wealth and increase social status
* …to advance natural human evolution, or to contribute to the gene pool of the human race
* …to advance technological evolution, or to actively develop the future human
* …to compete or co-operate with others
* …to destroy others who harm you, or to practice nonviolence and nonresistance
* …to die having succeeded in your purpose
* …to gain and exercise power
* …to leave a legacy, such as a work of art or a book
* …to live
* …to produce offspring through sexual reproduction or asexual reproduction
* …to protect one’s family
* …to pursue a dream, vision, or destiny
* …to seek freedom, either physically, mentally or financially
* …to seek happiness and flourish, experience pleasure or celebrate
* …to survive, including the pursuit of immortality through scientific means (see life extension)
* …to complete your list of life goals
* …to find something to believe
Wisdom and knowledge
* …to be without question, or to keep asking questions
* …to find out the meaning of life
* …to expand one’s perception of the world
* …to explore, to expand beyond our frontiers
* …to learn from one’s own and others’ mistakes
* …to seek truth, knowledge, understanding, or wisdom
* …to try to discover and understand the meaning of life
* …to understand creation
Ethical
* …to achieve a supernatural connection within the natural context
* …to achieve enlightenment and inner peace
* …to achieve rebirth in the Pure Land
* …to become like God, or God-like
* …to be rewarded for your deeds
* …to experience existence from an infinite number of perspectives in order to expand the consciousness of all there is (i.e. God)
* …to express compassion
* …to follow the “Golden Rule”
* …to give and receive love
* …to live in a way that you don’t harm yourself and don’t harm your environment
* …to work for justice and freedom
Religious and spiritual
* …to be a filter of creation between heaven and hell
* …to die and become a martyr
* …to live in peace with each other, and in harmony with our natural environment (see utopia)
* …to produce useful structure in the universe over and above consumption (see net creativity)
* …to protect humanity, or more generally the environment
* …to reach Heaven in the afterlife
* …to seek and acquire virtue, to live a virtuous life
* …to serve others, or do good deeds
* …to turn fear into joy at a constant rate achieving on literal and metaphorical levels: immortality, enlightenment and atonement
* …to understand and follow the “Word of God”
* …to worship, serve, or achieve union with God
* …to disprove the existence of a or all all gods
Other
* …to find true love
* …to achieve self-actualisation
* …to contribute to collective meaning (“we” or “us”) without having individual meaning (“I” or “me”)
* …to find a purpose, a “reason” for living that hopefully raises the quality of one’s experience of life, or even life in general
* …to live, and enjoy the passage of time
* …to have fun
* …to participate in the inevitable increase in entropy of the universe
* …to make the conformists’ lives miserable (see non-conformism)
* …to participate in the chain of events which has led from the creation of the universe until its possible end (either freely chosen or determined, this is a subject widely debated amongst philosophers)
* …to relate, connect, or achieve unity with others
* …to resolve all problems that one faces, or to ignore them and attempt to fully continue life without them, or to detach oneself from all problems faced (see Buddhism)
* …to seek and find beauty
* …as there is no intrinsic meaning to life, to each individual, the “meaning of life” is whatever he/she decides it is. In that sense, every point above is potentially valid.
* …an answer to the question “What is the meaning of life?” is that it is just simply being able to ask the question, “What is the meaning of life?” (see Sri Sri Ravi Shankar below)
* …to determine a set of goals based on an individuals belief in the meaning of life and work towards the attainment of those objectives.
* …a combination of any of the above.
* …42
No purpose, and therefore…
* …to simply live until one dies (there is no universal or celestial purpose)
* …just a series of events
* …just nature taking its course
* …the wheel of time keeps on turning
* …the cycle of life
* …whatever you see you see, as in “projection makes perception”
* …there is no purpose or meaning whatsoever (see nihilism)
* …who cares?
* …because nobody will ever love you.
* …life may actually not exist, this is all a surreal dream.
But most importantly
* …not to die.

Richard Roberts Comfort in Times of Trial
As long as you are on this earth, you are going to have trials. Devil comes to steal, kill, and destroy every-thing you hold dear (John 10:10). Es-pecially if you are serving God with a fervency. I know this from experience.
In 1984 Lindsay gave birth to a beauti-ful baby boy, Richard Oral. He used to be a miracle from God, because for a long time it had seemed like we would not be able to have youngsters. We were over-joyed! But just 36 hours after his birth, he snuffed it in my arms.
As we put his little body in the ground, devil started to mock us. This is curtains for you. You can never pray for the sick again, and you will never see any more miracles. It’s all over for you.” And in the natural, it looked as if satan was right.
When you are facing an overwhelming trial like that, you can become daunted and want to give up. After his conversion, he turned into a person on fire for Jesus, and that is when satan let him have it.
And the Holy Spirit comforted him.

“You’re in the healing ministry, and you couldn’t even get your own little boy healed. This is the end for you. It’s all over for you.” And in the natural, it looked as if satan was right.
When you face a devastating trial like that, you can become discouraged and want to quit. This is when you have to go to the Word. There you see awe-some examples of faith that will en-courage you. Think about the apostle Paul.
Paul was stoned and left for dead, whipped, shipwrecked, and snake-bitten (Acts 14:19; 16:22-23; 27; 28:3-6). Paul went through every-thing you can imagine, but he knew he was on the right track because satan was chasing him so hard. And the Holy Spirit comforted him.

What thinkst thou of this light-ful verse of mine/ gleaming in a bowl of sun-lit moonshine.(?)?
I’m bound to you not by an iron chain
Nor do faceless charms reign in my soul
For love’s florid wreath, in me does attain
A light-ful heart that seeks to make us whole
And none dares disrespect this love-ful lace
In delicacies equal to your hair
Whose golden sheen wavers in hatred’s face
Its beauty stripping him from ill-wills bare

Lines 1,2, and 4 are strong but L3 not only disrupts the metrical flow, it also seems semantically disconnected from the other lines in the first quatrain. You must I am afraid rewrite L3 to establish that semantic link. This reads like the first two quatrains of an Elizabethan sonnet, but when you disrupt the semantic chain in this manner you do not establish rhetorically the axis of argument that a sonnet is meant to establish. This is a tricky matter, because you are trying to satisfy simultaneously several problems of composition: semantic continuity coupled with proper use of rhetorical figures, accentual syllabic flow (iambic pentameter), rhyme scheme (ababcdcdefefgg), appropriate allusive texture, and consonance of imagery. Viewed within the perspective of these constraints, you have created two quatrians that, while not lacking in artistic merit, somehow fall short of fully satisfying those constraints. While I am embarrassed by the mean-spiritedness of previous respondents, one of them has, among irrelevant and unjustified disdain, articulated something of value. Let me try to say it a bit more nicely and far more constructively: endeavor to write in a manner that uses more modern phrasing. This does not mean that you must assume that the reader can appreciate only something pedestrian. Assume you are writing for a discerning consumer of poetry who understands all of the conventions of sonnet construction and who has a thorough familiarity with all of Shakespeare’s 154 sonnets, but who also prefers to read and write in a modern diction on some of those same themes. It will be much easier to arrange the continuity of your argument. Now relax the rhyming constraint and write instead only for consonance if that facilitates the “rhyming” of ideas and images, but make your meter perfect and precise, i.e. write in blank verse. This is standard pedagogical practice; if we are overwhelmed by constraints, we loosen them in the service of propeling our line of argumentation forward. Decide exactly what that argument is before you begin and what you want to say to construct it: where must you start, where will you go, where must you finish! If your reader is reasonably intelligent and somehow is lost in the argument, then the fault lies with the poet. I read and write poetry, teach writing workshops, and I suppose I am intelligent (IQ 180, Cattell Verbal Index 226), and find weaknesses and places for improvement in your quatrains. Relax those constraints and speak to me in your own language; I too love Shakespeare, but feel that I honor him more by speaking and writing from my own perspective and in my own language so that living members of the community of intelligent poets can appreciate me more fully. Give it a try, and you will never need to feel defeated. In the interim, just ignore the shallow fools who heap derision on you that would more appropriately be placed closer to home. Bless you and keep working on this.
