Why Do We Live Then

"Man, born of woman is short-lived and filled with trouble." We often try and make life seem like a bubble. Yes, when we laugh, kiss and cuddle We even live as if life is doubled. Why do we live then? For happiness, love & Marriage, guess we also need courage. 'Man comes like a Rose in dawn and then withers away. He flees like a shadow then disappear .Memories made, Icons long-lived like Shakespeare. I mean like those who said the earth has gravity, we have to say cheers. If the years are counting, where are we going then? Why do we live then? They say commandments were Ten. I wish to rewrite them in pen. In these world there are non-living things that produce sound. Why should there be a Rand and a pound? An up and a down, a verb and a noun. I want to know now, so i can make queens to bow. Why do we live then?
