What does "Life" mean?

Why when things get tough do we say “that’s life”

But not when things are good?

How does one describe life?

With each breath we breathe

With each movement we make that’s life….

But isn’t there more?

Is “life” just the heartbeat and breath?

Or is it something more in depth?

Is “life” just physical or is it also spiritual?

Can you be emotionally dead but still be “alive”?

What defines life?

sound, smell, feeling, taste, and sight?

Maybe it’s each cell in our bodies

or the bark of a tree.

Maybe life is in the wind

Maybe it’s more than we can see.

When somebody says “you need to get your life back”….

What does that really mean?

Did we really lose our “life” or maybe just take a different one?

Maybe our “life” is each moment and not our plans.

If we take a different trail when we walk, do we die?

Not usually.

life….such a small word with many different meanings…

What is life to you?
