What is Life?

In life, you learn things you didn’t before know possible. You learn things about people. About friends, about family, about yourself, but mostly you learn things about life itself. You learn that living is not planning each and every step. You learn that living is not walking around with no clue as to what life begins and ends with. You learn about how there is no answer to the simplest questions, and that there are bad people in the world. You learn that not everyone wears a smile, and not everyone deserves one. You learn about what’s called “truth”, and you learn about what are called “lies”. These two seem to be the only things that people question. The only thing they wonder about. There’s always all this talk about black and white and what is clear and what is vague, yet no one does anything about it. They do sit there though… They do watch as we cripple under what we think is living. Except the truth is that we never start living until we know what the word means. We never start living until we can fully understand that life has nothing to do with what the truth is or what lies are. Life only has to do with answers. Answers that we find by living. When we can see that, that is when we truly become who we are. That is when everything clicks. That is utopia. That is peace. And there will still be questions that make you lost. Questions that run loose through your head trying to make sense of what is not made to be made sense of, but that, that is also living. Not having answers, that is living. Because with these questions we become enticed to discover the core of what we want. With these questions we are left with no choice but to find what the answer is. The truth is that life is not life when you have your answers handed to you. The lie, is that living life will always be easy. Like I said, in life you learn things you didn’t before know possible. In life you learn how to live.
