When I was still in school, I used to be one of the students who writes well when it comes to formal and informal-themed essays whether it is creative writing or journal. But I was wondering what could be the hardest essay topic for me to write. And I found out today that this is the hardest topic to write an essay about:
"I love this life because..."
I'm thinking...thinking so hard. I am draining all my brain power. I just can't think of something to write about that essay topic. I can't even fill-in the blank. I can't think of words to write because it should be factual according to my own experience.
"I love this life because..."
Waahhh...hindi talaga ako makaisip ng idudugtong ko! It has to be what I feel. And it should be based on my own experiences and what I love about my own life. I love this life because...? Wala talaga akong mailagay. Pero ako lang ang makakasagot nito. Any help? Anyone who can give me an idea for the reason to love the life that I have? Maybe because it was given by God, I am thankful. But that's beside the point. The topic is not "I'm thankful with this life because...", but it says...
"I love this life because..."
I'm thankful that God gave me this life. I am honored and thankful that God loved me in the sense that He gave me the chance to live as a human being and I'm so much thankful about that. But the question lies in the time when you are already there in that life that He gave and what will make you love it. And that is the point of the question--"what makes you love this life that you have been thankful about?"
Thankful? Yes, definitely. But do you love the life that you have?
Maybe I can separate the word "life" into 2 concepts.
- Life (1) - the miraculous thing, or the gift to exist, or the magical breath that God gave humans. It can be comparable to a gift given to you in a birthday party.
- Life (2) - the circumstances that you are experiencing with the Life (1) that you have been given. I can refer it to "living the Life (1) that you have." It can be comparable to your experiences with the gift someone gave you in a birthday party.
I am so thankful and I love God for giving me Life (1) but I don't know if I can be thankful with the second concept of Life (2). Life (2) is the one that I am referring to with the essay that I can hardly answer--
"I love this life because..."
Ohh..it's really difficult for me to answer. Can someone help me and give me an idea?
