The living life.

***"in this life we live, there's more to just living. Other things are, but life is. When we live our life we live with purpose, we live with aspirations, we aspire to make life better and worth living"***... J.mattty How did we came to existence? A child was once asked who created her, and she confidently replied; my mother. When she was asked who then created her mother, she stayed a while before saying that her mother's mother created her mother. At her stage of life, she was sincerely saying all her truth and yes, she knows not much about the life she is living, the life she exists. What made her give the answer she gave could be because her parents were the only person in all her life or could probably be that her mother was her closest friend has always been for her and provided all her basic needs.

In the same way I think everyone would think at the infant stage of life. Everything we know and all we think about all depends on what we perceive in our environment. Our closest face our family and unfamiliar faces could be our enemies. What happens before life and after life? This is a big question that have been in existence for ages. Where was man before his arrival on earth, before he was give birth to. No one knows the perfect answer to these questions, truly, life is **metaphysical.** Before we were born, we do not know whose family we were coming to, the race we would fall in and what color of skin we would have. We found ourselves in the hands that nurture us , provides our need and raise us with love, care and kindness. Now we belong to that family and owe them everything. We make personal promises to take care of parents even though it almost impossible to repay their kindness and love, but we still believe that one day when life gives green light, we would throw a lot to our parents. At our earlier days, we know nothing but as we grow, we become more conscious of our environment and adapt to nature. Childhood is really when we imagine what we are to become in the future. At the stage of childhood, we hear ourselves saying "I want to be a doctor when I grow up"... I want to be this, I want to be that. But a few of us make it to our dream. Why is life hard to some people that they don't afford education to live their dreams, some who goes to school seize the opportunity to pursue there dream while few stay back home and hope on nature. When I first heard that some people are born with a silver spoon as a child, I would always ask myself why? Are there people born of wooden spoon and why must some e born of silver spoon and not everyone. Do we have difference before we were born. But as I grow up, I begin to realize what being born in a silver spoon literally means and I am quite sure we all know what it means. Humans work to live a promising life, for themselves and their families including generations to come. Some persons give up this struggle either by incident or accident. It pains to loose someone close to you but why do people die? Where do the dead go ? All these and more are questions humanity question life. To live a life of pleasure, we have to make a sacrifice, but does this apply to everyone? Some people who we suppose are born with a silver spoon are living a better life already. Nature has prepared a fortune for them. All these ordeals of life can get someone into thinking that; wealth can be inherited, but is poverty inherited as well?

To some, people who do good in life or have wealth must have their hands soiled in an evil act. They say these among themselves but refuse to rethink otherwise about themselves being poor, are there hands Clean, why don't they have wealth. This can trigger jealousy among men. Finally, being born to me is an opportunity to exist among many, born with or without a silver spoon does not decide ones future in life. Not all who begins the journey of life together ends together. In this life we live, there's more to just living. Other things are, but life is. When we live our life we live with purpose, we live with aspirations, we aspire to make life better and worth living We can decide how we want to live.
