life
, adjective
–noun
1.
the condition that distinguishes organisms from inorganic objects and dead organisms, being manifested by growth through metabolism, reproduction, and the power of adaptation to environment through changes originating internally.
4.
a corresponding state, existence, or principle of existence conceived of as belonging to the soul: eternal life.
5.
the general or universal condition of human existence: Too bad, but life is like that.
What miracles and monstrosities can the human frame endure? What is the equation for the detachment of the soul from the body? Myself, having never experienced death, am found within the grasp of these questions.
For example: somewhere today there was a life taken by the event of an infant birthed. In another corner of the world there is a life dangling by a diseased thread. Medicine administered by doctors with the sometimes dim hope of healing. Cures being handed to some, while others receive death certificates. And who would you believe the lucky one?
I have had some experiences with bitterness (and recognize them as such). I have listened to the words of those who are cured of their disease and wondered bitterly; what about their X value is different?
It can not always be called right or easy or fair.
And yet, don't we all know, the values of the X's and Y's never truly matter. The only formula granted to the body is that of time.
