how do you define life?

Answer 1

Life is like a train where you will meet friends, relatives. Many of them will get down intermediate stations. You will miss them. But some day even you should also get down in some station. No body knows where their station will come! So enjoy the life. Be happy and let others to be happy ! Cheers !!!

Answer 2

How can you define a thing that already has been defined and you are but a part of that definition, and so is your question. You question is attempting to create a virtual place upon which you want to stand and observe life - detached. This is naive thing to attempt.

To answer as question perfectly or completely is to kill the question once and for all. What is life? This question cannot be answered. This is a dead question. The question died to give birth to life you and me share. The question has been answered perfectly. This is the answer to this question – the life, not as a question but as an answer.

If I ask - who are you? The best answer is you own self. You cannot be defined by giving any other example, or using any other metaphor but you, as you are completely. Once you understand this then you realise that to question life is to question yourself. And to know life is to know your own self. The question of life has been answered once and for all, for all ages and for all people. This question has been so perfectly answered that it died; it died to give birth to the life - the answer that you and me live in and share

Form this point onward life what you have, life is what I have and life is what we share with fellow human beings. My life can be described like a sweet symphony, and you can describe it like blossom of flowers, or like coming of rain after a long scorched summer. Life can be described in many forms but t cannot t be defined.

The questions about life are asked in order to be able to ask even better questions. The purpose is not to find and know what life is, but to seek, to continue searching – never to be the one we love but always to be what we are in search for the one we love.

Answer 3

there's the biological definition, the intellectual definition, and the spiritual definition.

biologically, the genomes came together in the proper way in order to produce me.

intellectual, the classic is descarte's "cogito er sum" or "i think, therefore i am."

spiritually, well that's the one that's the hardest to define. each of us has our own personal justifications for existance. my answer would be worlds away from yours. for me, life is the possibilty of bringing about positive change in the world, no matter how relatively small scale said change is. however, that's only the answer for me, not any one else.
