Life is definitely a puzzle and riddle but most make it through to the other side in some form or other. I hope that everyone learns life lessons the first time they are handed a test so they don't have to go through similar circumstances over and over to learn the lessons that should have been learned in the beginning. Thanks for the visit to my page. Sara

Life is a puzzle, but we muddle through it, finding truths and answers along our path. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Can't say it any better than you have here, Valsa. Life - such a mystery; yet so often taken for granted and mistaken for a 'hum-drum' series of events. ~ All Hail the Enigma! :) gw

Valsa, life certainly is a riddle. I wish it would come with a hand manual. It sure would take the stress out living day to day. Outstanding write. Blessings ~ Debra

Valsa, At times, life may feel like a maze, and we regularly struggle to identify the appropriate ending. I concur. We think that when confronted with the reality of a problem, we can see clearly. Best wishes for the contest.

Valsa, you have described life with much truth…..”very elusive like the mirage”… We think we can see it clearly, until we are face to face with reality. :)Paulette
