Why Am I Here and From Where Did I Come - Individuality

WHY AM I HERE AND FROM WHERE DID I COME - INDIVIDUALITY I am a lifespan. The future goes beyond that. Anyone gives him or herself one hundred years even when he or she lived only fifty. I am a destiny. I strive to continue on until my hundred years are known. But, nevertheless, I live for peace and meaningfulness. I am a schema – a base of knowledge that breathes to discover. I am a journey partook to uncover things unknown. I am life now, and I am here to acclaim my own. I am a niche in the world. I am imminently framed. I am that that proclaims the existence of personal recourse. I am a voice, a look, and an expression. In years to come and not beyond that, life spans. The future we are not. We are here to create a better tomorrow. Our destiny is not perceived. We are our creators. Life formed for meaningfulness. Peace is an ideology to this. But, we represent the philosophy of war. In a time of conflict, our belief is we have the right to bear arms. Understanding brings times of peace and a cold war. We are a lifespan in endurance. We are niches in the world of humanity. We are equity and identity, which manifest individuality. Life is only a span of time. Our future is stated as: “Within ten years…” We ask what we will achieve. The future is infinite, and we are limited. What sadness this may bring. None, we are here as we are now, and the future belongs to life existence. We are a lifespan within this medium. Imminently, we frame. We are proclaiming our own. Our niche is defined. Anyone gives him or herself one hundred years even when he or she may live only fifty. Many bridges we will cross. Life formed to structure. _____________________________________________________________| Penned May 25, 2015!

You came out of your malady with a real strength of purpose. You write, just as I sometimes feel, as if you are cheated of time in which creativity can be accomplished. ..... Magnificent writing! I am truly impressed by your talent. Thanks for a great sharing...... Jake

Very interesting write Verlena. As writers we may break that 100 year barrier. I hope your words breathe life to many lifespans.
