What is

What is this life really
For we all participate without understanding or validation
We are not asked or chosen but placed 
We are here for nothing other than breath 
And sometimes that is too hard


We are all here making the most with what we are given
Learning and experiencing moments that cannot be repeated 
It’s hard and it’s cruel at times
Life hurts 
Life hurts more than is advertised 
But no one gives up because of this fact
We dig deep
Roll up our sleeves and do all we can 
Fight for all we can get and hope for the best
What else is there?
