life

have you ever defined life

I cannot define it
sometimes it is the ganges
descending from the heaven
taking its own course
flowing through unknown passages
mixture of purity and dirt
changing shapes and names
merging in the end in the deep
an earthly symbol of eternity

life is not philosophy
psychology religion
sociology politics or history
there are all the parts of life
but life is still a mystery
unpredictable and unsearchable
always a question,
never an  answer
