What is Life?

What is life that we should be afraid of it? What is death that it should scare us away? Often people have said that dying is just a part of life. But is life just a part of dying? I mean, the short period that we actually exist on this earth. If you believe that the Earth is only like 4000 years old why is it that you live right now? Could it be possible that we exist in this moment in time for a reason? But what would that reason be? Is what you do in life now different than what you would be doing in any other period in time? I resolve that it has to be. There is no way that we could talk on these computers if we were in some other time period. Hey, we wouldn't have pencils until a few years ago. How did people actually live in earlier times? The answer is that they truly lived. We, in our pathetic lives, do nothing. We don't really live. We are a lazy society who seems to have everything at our fingertips. Did God really put us here at this very moment to sit in our "recliners?" I resolve that he did not.
