Life's Reason

LIFE'S REASON? Where do we figure in the universal scheme of things? this unanswered question is likely to so remain we could be so insignificant, our egos would suffer pain maybe we are caretakers, to preserve beauty in our domain?, or no role at all may be our lot, along with other Earthly beings. Does it really matter?...... we're here and that's a fact it's a wonderful world to enjoy, within life's short span whatever our role, if any, life's great if we can so make it given reasonably good health, and strength enough to act. To stay healthy is our main concern, and that of medical science great strides in recent decades they've made, keeping us ahead of viruses and other microorganisms,with aims we all do dread their speedy mutations a constant threat, boffins combat in defiance. It would seem that life wasn't meant to be one smooth breeze, there had to be adversaries to beat, just as in epic tales of old, perhaps, when reaching our destinations, we will all be told, 'drink from the Holy Grail my friends, put on your Golden Fleece" hicky.
