Just found this when doing some research and I really liked it so I thought I d share it with the forumites :

"When we are born into this world, everyone laughs while we are crying. Be sure, that by your actions, when the time for you to go will come, you will be the one laughing, while everyone else will be crying." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

So poetic and so true in every sense of the words.. I was in the latter scenario recently and that bought it all back to me.. But in a warming way

I think that is why I liked it - it states the obvious and yet, there is more to it!

The two most moving times in my life has been the birth of my children, they changed my world in the most positive way possible. Was told by grandfather that to reproduce was a instinct that few could or wanted to avoid.

Who said few things in life are certain except birth, death and taxes

The summation of life in two sentences. Wonderful! !

And to paraphrase Shakespeare ' the world is but a stage and we are merely players who walk upon it for a short time'

That is such profound phrase and is so true. When you look back at his works the man was so ahead of his time.. Although he is often quoted I believe he is so under estimated to this day.

I don't think that there is any real meaning of life for an individual, just for a species and probably not ours

Actually genes createdbusbfor the sake of their own perpetuation.

They are really intelligent and can take a myriad of forms, both flora and fauna.
