Whats Life ?

What does life mean to you

What is life?
What does it mean to me?
What do I do with it?
Is it worth the living?
Cause anyway we are all going to die.
But why do we still live since we all die at some point
Is it because of fear in death
Or is it that we want to leave a mark
The answer is your decisions and choices
Life is not easy to live
It is a series of choices that one must take
To change the course of action on yourself and others
Some wants to avoid them
And some embrace them
Each decision that you take
Will give another particular set of choices to make
Even not doing anything is choice of your own
As a decision to deny your very existence alone

This is what I think of life. What do you think of life

Thank you soo much James

[Simran Kewlani]

It's a wonderful poem.
It basically speaks about itself. It feels that your words have gained the power to speak, they're screaming out loud about what they're trying to say.
I love it, Terence. :)

[Terrence Chang]

Thank you soo much for your kind and gentle review

[Don't just B, but B ama..]

Absolutely wonderful and powerful piece, I'm starting to believe that all the best people in the world come to writerscafe. Great poem, what do I think of life ? My poem, "Every second Dying" is my answer. Thank you for sharing this great piece.

Thank you so much Mr. Brian I am delighted with your review. And compliments of the season to you

[Confuser]

The questions you ask are thought provoking and I found myself wondering as I read along. You say, I am not a good writer, but I absolutely disagree. These are profound questions you ask and seek to find the answers to life and are so honest in your writing. The honesty is so important and the emotions comes through clearly. Our choices, and the choices we make are like the perpetual ripple in the water that leads to a touch of another and you have touched me in this writing. I will ponder on about what I think of life; as you say, it is not easy, but what worth obtaining fully is? The course of action we take: the small lines create a great impact. Keep writing and do not sell yourself short. Thank you.

Thank you soo very much Confuser. I am happy that you always read my writings and give such lovely review. And Merry Christmas to you and have a prosperous new year

[Confuser]

I give only honest reviews and if you read someones work, they should reciprocate. No too smart not to read, I'm learning, like you. Must read, to write. No?

[Terrence Chang]

Ya you are absolutely right

[Confuser]

But Chang, I do try to read more, because I need it and that do unto others....anyway

[Terrence Chang]

I believe that reading is as good as writing cause you get new ideas to write. I do read but it never ends

[Confuser]

It can end anytime, remember you make the choices, do not let pressure of not doing something just perfectly worry you. Much to young for such nonsense. Take your time. Leave the worries to the old mothers like me.

[Terrence Chang]

Yeah actually haha

[Confuser]

Keep writing. Don't worry, be happy. Ha.

[Terrence Chang]

I have written some new ones. Care to read

[Confuser]

What are they? I'll begin looking as I wait for your response.

[Terrence Chang]

Please try "Where am I" and I will soon be posting "Beyond"

[Confuser]

Okay - you may have to remind me of Beyond.

[Amaranta]

cool and analytical poem. i think life is a special recess in the holographic projection of all the universes in and outside of all black holes. life is a momentary flash where we get to experience love and joy and anger and sadness all in one. life is a very beautiful thought in the endless concept of time.

[Terrence Chang]

Thank you Amaranta for your review. What you have reviewed is also very true. Life is a vast subject. I just picked up a fraction of it.
