'Life is not what we take of it, but what we MAKE of it' :
Human beings are born with only their genetic inheritances, and have to continuously prepare themselves ever since, to exist in a meaningful and productive way - that gives some meaning, or value, for their ever having existed.
Unless one is mentally a weakling, with no capacity at all to think, analyse and decide for one's own self, no one else can ever 'programme' us the way they want !
Every human being is basically heuristic - and is created to confront, combat and control one's own problems and challenges.

Life is the characteristic state of organisms and individual cells. Properties common to the known organisms found on Earth (plants, animals, fungi, protists, archaea and bacteria) are that they are carbon-and-water-based, are cellular with complex organization, undergo metabolism, possess a capacity to grow, respond to stimuli, reproduce and, through natural selection, adapt in succeeding generations.
An entity with the above properties is considered to be organic life. However, not every definition of life considers all of these properties to be essential. For example, the capacity for descent with modification is often taken as the only essential property of life. This definition notably includes viruses, which do not qualify under narrower definitions as they are acellular and do not metabolise. Broader definitions of life may also include theoretical non-carbon-based life and other alternative biology.
The entire Earth contains about 75 billion tons of biomass (life), which lives within various environments within the biosphere.
Life itself is a set of processes that are carried out by an organism causing it to survive.
