A lived life is one in which we experience joy and sadness in turns on the journey of life. If life was all joy we probably wouldn’t learn very much about ourselves or the world we inhabit. Likewise, if life were all sadness, we would tend to become despondent, and life would be very grey. Whether we like it or not it is that combination of joy and sadness that enables us to become whole and complete people. It is this combination that causes us to become people of meaning and depth who understand the very texture of life.
