Novice seeking wisdoms in gulps "Truly master what is the meaning of life" words a thousand students more wizened eyes paused annoyance teetering towards but at least in part amusement lighted to fall Life an Anvil be Life a smithy's hammer striking wait Forgive this aged one's doddering words You asked not of birth or death, but all that resides in the middle- Life Life be Anvil not nor Sparking hammer tis that unforged unsparingly pounded breathing alloy generally struggling for a word verily quite in the middle A taste of which you will find yourself experiencing quite momentarily if I find a bit more remnants of breakfast dish yet unwashed or ignored A twinkling eye remembered how once those wizened eyes had asked the same only to find the answer was a meticulously clean floor scrubbed unsparingly with the equivalent of toothbrush and unsoaped water The meaning of life IS "High on the Mountain, where the Sun stil Shines, and the water runs a little lazy." |

I see you too were inspired by Jaime's questioning write. An interesting piece you have here, EH. Yes, the meaning of life is a ponderful Q for all. |
