What is the meaning of my life? What is it all about? Who am I? Why am I here? Questions and questions that swirl in my head. What IS my purpose on this place called Earth. Happiness, death and living all mingle together. I just go with the flow and my reward is tranquility . . . problems and sorrows diseases and disasters you threaten all life We all worry about the Big Freeze and the Big Rip, the Big Crunch and global warming. The mind is undiscovered. Wealth, power and fame is so useless. Is there cosmic conciousness? Is there an afterlife? Death is a mystery feared. Lost love, pain and suffering are realities. But for me the meaning of life is quite simple, I live in the moment, life is tranquility . . . oh tranquility you are the meaning of life all in the moment _____________________________ September 19, 2015 Haibun Enter in the Screwed VII Contest, sponsor, Rob Carmack 9th Place

Wonderful thoughts, Broken, and in reality, your words are so wise. All we have control over is the "moment" for sure, and our greatest gift is tranquility. Congratulations on your win! Hugs, Sandra
