Life is a characteristic that distinguishes physical entities that have biological processes (such as signalling and self-sustaining processes) from those that do not. This could either be because such functions have ceased (they have died), or because they never had such functions and are classified as inanimate.
This definition has two main contents that describe life to us: signalling and self-sustaining. This implies that as long as one has these characteristics, there is life. And someone has once said, when there is life, there is hope.
So many quotes have tried to get us to understand life. Some of which are:
“Life is good” by Anonymous.
This is undoubtedly true. He Who made this life, made all things, and were all perfectly made.
Life can only be good if our thoughts, choices and actions toward the situations we meet are well managed. Anything short of this may be regarded as life being unfair.
Life is good when it is lived for oneself, life is great when lived for others. The true meaning of happiness is to lose your mind by thinking for others!
Life presents to everyone equal opportunities to have a fresh breath. This is required to enjoy life to the fullest, making a great impact.
Life is beautiful and good and can be glorious. But it will never be challenge-free.
Many have the opinion that life is supposed to be smooth-sailing, ignorant of the fact that the whole world is on the balance of feeding from challenges of life as it relates to the existence of man.
You may have got new promises, prophecies and revelations for the new year. You may even have prayed personally and got some _rhema_ for the new year. Please note that this does not eliminate challenges, rather it gives hope to get through hard times.
The truth about challenges is that it makes us stronger, confident and bold. Courageous people are made out of life’s challenging situations.
Final Notes
There is no gain without pain.
There is no victory without battles.
There is no warrior without wars.
There is no wages without labour.
There is no success without efforts.
There is no happiness without hardship.
If everything comes without challenges, life will be driven by mere wishes.
You see, life is good, but we have our part to play. So live, aiming at success even in the face of evident failure. Remember ALWAYS, life will not be challenge-free.
Happy Year 2020!
