O Me! O Life! by Walt Whitman 330509 https://padlet.com/330509/trans_project/wish/289351590 Oh me! Oh life! of the questions of these recurring,
Of the endless trains of the faithless, of cities fill’d with the foolish,
Of myself forever reproaching myself, (for who more foolish than I, and who more faithless?)
Of eyes that vainly crave the light, of the objects mean, of the struggle ever renew’d,
Of the poor results of all, of the plodding and sordid crowds I see around me,
Of the empty and useless years of the rest, with the rest me intertwined,
The question, O me! so sad, recurring—What good amid these, O me, O life?

               Answer.
That you are here—that life exists and identity,
That the powerful play goes on, and you may contribute a verse. -Walt Whitman]]> 2018-10-04 19:11:35 UTC https://padlet.com/330509/trans_project/wish/289351590 3. My Verse 330509 https://padlet.com/330509/trans_project/wish/289352312 2018-10-04 19:13:03 UTC https://padlet.com/330509/trans_project/wish/289352312 4. My Poem 330509 https://padlet.com/330509/trans_project/wish/289352588 Every question has an answer and every answer has its question
So let me ask
What is the true meaning of life? 
There is talk
 There is debate
There is no found answer
 Only the lasting strife
Many people have tried to find the answer 
The answer to the meaning of life
But before that, they have all died


I ask myself are humans brains unable to delve into secrets of the universe?
Are we fooling ourselves to the point where we aren’t truly alive?
Are we that incapable despite beings the smartest animals on the Planet?
Humans grew up to believe there is a meaning to life and they need to find it
Humans grew up to believe each and every one of us can make a difference in life
Humans grew up to believe we should live life the fullest
Why is it that we are supposed to find a meaning to life, make a difference to life, live life to the fullest
I now realized theses are beliefs people tell us
For what reason?
To keep us alive
Why? Why? Why can’t we find the true meaning of Life?
Does this mean there is no meaning to Life? 
And so it seems I have come to a conclusion of the true meaning of life
Life has no meaning
