Life has many meanings and everyone chooses a different meaning for themselves. Life could mean death since everyone is destined to die. Or it could mean love since everyone falls in love at some point in their life. Every religion has its own view for the meaning of life. Life can be defined like a roller-coaster since everyone has their ups and downs. If you go by a dictionary, then you take life too seriously. And if you make up your own definition, you are a true philosopher.

No I can not, and anyone who tries is in the persuit of eternity. We are all still experiencing, how could we define it. Not to mention, what is a person, how could you even begin to describe that? Not to mention a thing, what is a thing?

If only I could. But a definition of life would extract all meaning of it. Sometimes, you just have to believe, and the thrill of life is the unknown.

Life is a process of changes that affect your eternal soul. Everything you think affects your soul, everything you do affects your soul. And the enlightened are those who nurture their souls by seeking knowledge, practicing love, and relishing everything in this world that they find beautiful.
