The meaning of life

Here I am back to blogging after a pleasure hectic week.
Well, I just wanna announce you that I have an assignment for my creative studies. It's about creating the meaning of life with a metaphor after we watched a film.
Unfortunately, my lecturer gave the students on my class (FD 02) a film titled THE FOUNTAIN which is really weird and boring at first, then we should found 30 words from that film.

Yeah, my bad feeling just appeared instantly after that.

I got only twenty-something words connected to The Fountain. I submitted that incomplete task, you know what, the lecturer only picked 8 outta less than 30 words there!

Well, that's the background of my assignments actually. I should make those 8 words as the meaning of life, create 'em as metaphor. It's not an easy task after all as I just get stuck this morning with this stuff and thinking I should share this interesting but annoying assignment with you all through my blog.

Here is the list of those holy 8 words:
1. Violent
2. Emotion
3. Love
4. Battle
5. Pain
6. Astronomy
7. Meditation
8. DEATH

From the last word you could see that it's Death. One of my friend who got that word too for being described as the meaning of life, asked me retorically, "How come the meaning of life is death? Death is the opposite of life! It should be crazy to describe life as death!"

Moreover, I told her that I have that word either for my assignment.
On the other hand, I feel excited to create a metaphor of life from the word Death.
I dont even think the same as her--my friend.
According to me, death is the beginning of life. There is a life after death, as all religion tell. And the most important fact is, death balances life.
Can you imagine if there is no death in this world? Well, I dunno whether the surface of the earth will be able for all of us to stand on it.

Another thing, life has no meaning if there is no death follows after life.
What do you think if all of the people live forever, in immortality? Do you still think that your life will be meaningful?
Maybe I'll find some of you say yes but here, I have different view.

I read a book titled Twilight which has extraction about the meaning of life. The story line is about two characters, the first one is Bella Swan who is a human and she is deeply in love with Edward, the second is Edward Cullen who is a vampire - he was a human before changed into a vampire - and also, he gets a big madly crush with Bella.
Bella wants to be a vampire like Edward, so she could life forever with him in immortality. However, Edward refuses Bella's idea to transform her becomes the same creature as him because he loves her, besides that, he doesnt want Bella spent her whole life, forever, unmeaningfully.

You couldnt life forever, thats why you should fill your life with all good things--love, care, peace, joy, togetherness, and many more which I cant mention all here but I should do and find out.
Many of you want to life in immortality, might be to live a thousand years later by now, but will you find the meaning of life during that time?

The meaning of life comes after the word death. And this is my fave quote about life,

"It's not about how long you live in this world, It's about how you fill your life with everything meaningful, before the death comes to take you to the next life."
