How do you define human existence on earth? <br />Some say our life on earth is like a journey <br />The journey begins from the day we are born <br />And terminates the day we die <br />Others say that our life is a school <br />We start learning from the day we are born <br />Everyday of our life on earth <br />There is always something new to learn <br />The schooling ends the day we die <br />Few compare our life on earth to the sun <br />Our sunrise is the day we are born <br />While our sun sets on the day we die <br />Our life can also be likened to a flower <br />The flower is planted the day we are born <br />As we grow up, our flower germinates <br />When we reach middle-age <br />Our flower blooms and sparkles <br />After we retire, our flower fades away <br />Life of humans can also be equated to the four seasons <br />The spring covers birth to adolescent years <br />Summer of our life begins from adolescent to middle-age <br />While fall season starts from middle-age to retirement <br />The winter of our life will be from retirement to death <br />Another analogy is to liken human existence on earth <br />To the waxing and waning of the moon <br />From our birth to the time we retire from active service <br />Can be compared to waxing of the new moon to full moon <br />While our life from retirement to our death <br />Can be associated with the waning of full moon to new moon <br />Whatever may be your own analysis of life? <br />Always live everyday to the fullest<br /><br />Julius Babarinsa<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/human-existence-on-earth/
