Let me begin by saying what is NOT the meaning of life. The meaning of life is not to spend our time worrying, anxious, running back-and-forth in chaos, striving to become successful whatever that is in your mind. It’s not to gain riches and wealth material things. It is not to lift ourselves up above everyone else to place of hierarchy and power. This in my belief is what is NOT the meaning of life. So then what is the meaning of life? Well let us define what the word life means. Life is a heartbeat whether it be human or creature life begins with a heartbeat. Life is also living plants, cells of living organisms. All these things including the human race were created somehow. When do you think of a newborn baby what makes a newborn baby grow up to be healthy and feel worthy? It is love. It is such a simple message. Which of us have not struggled in our life? Which of us has not felt pain,sorrow,anxiety, worry, neglect, fear, and sadness? And when you think about what makes your heart rate go up , or when You made a flower bloom! It was when you were shown love whether, it be as a child a teenager an adult or an elderly person. What brings a flower to blossom? When it is nurtured with sunshine, water, and fertilizer ….that’s love. The meaning of life is to show, share, give and receive love.

I couldn’t imagine it was possible for frozen water to fall from the sky. The piercing cobalt blue horizon l had known as a child, with only the sound of the waves echoing from the atmosphere above me. Brilliant sun rays streaking through it, so vivid, so strong, almost changing the cobalt blue of the water and sky to a deep warm hue of green. But this!? How can it be!? The air so crisp I can see this fog like shape drift from my open mouth? Entertaining actually, reminds me of the smoke my pals would blow out after taking the first drag of their cigarettes. The temperature, like nothing I’ve ever felt before, stunning to say the least. So cold that not even my grandmothers cold storage box would compare to it. Surely our preserves would not last and our fruits would be spoiled to mush and rot.
