Life is a gift, and should be cherished, lived and experienced. Though experience often reveals itself as pain in this world, it is still purposeful, it still has its place in the evolution of our spirit.

About This Quote

The essence of life is to experience, to learn and to share. To be alive in all its beauty is a gift, and should be cherished, lived and experienced.

Many of these experiences are painful but they still have their place in the evolution of our spirit.
