What Is Life

Life is a roller coaster No, no, no. That’s been used O.K. Life’s hard, then you die Nope. Heard that one too Alright. Life’s a series of hairpin turns A little overdramatic, perhaps Hmm… Life’s a sucker punch to the gut Anthony Blinken would sue me… O.K. Life’s a never-ending series of surprises Eh… Way overdone, don’t you think I’ve got it now: At today's prices Life's a never-ending crisis

Indeed... My greatest concern, actually, is the inflationary rise in my abdominal area. ~ Spare Tire

Insights hard to come by on this topic, methinks...

Reading the title, I thought you'd spill out a very profound philosophical description of what it is.. No worries, I don't have a" worthy to be debated" point of view either!...ab

That's been used, too, gw. How about a simple two-worder: life is. Or, maybe, life sucks. Let me erase this and start over. Hey, maybe that's what life is!

Life’s a box of cereal Mikey ate in the 80s…

Gosh, Jeff. Where were you when I was wrestling with this question? I should have known that life was a bowl of cereal -- not a bowl of cherries. ~ Silly me
