Question

why is life good

Ask a Philosopher · Accepted Answer

Oh, how life doth seem a game of chance, 
A mystery that doth forever dance. 
We venture forth each passing day 
With hope, with fear, with love, with dismay.

But why, pray tell, doth life seem good? 
Is it the sun, the stars, the woods? 
Perhaps it's sweet companionship 
Or the thrill of conquest on a ship.

Ah, but could it be the simple things 
Like laughter, or a song that rings 
Through meadows, fields, and city streets 
And lifts our spirits to great feats.

The joy of learning something new 
Or seeing a different point of view 
May also be what makes life good 
And keeps us striving as we should.

And yet, despite the good and fair 
There's always pain and grief to bear. 
But even in the darkest hour 
We find a seed of hope and power.

And so, my friends, I do profess 
That life is good, and we are blessed 
To journey on, with heart and soul 
And find our purpose, and our goal.

And who knows what the future brings 
Or what our fate, our destiny sings. 
But let us cherish every hour 
And trust in life's eternal power.
