Life (cf. biota) is a characteristic that distinguishes objects that have signaling and self-sustaining processes from those that do not, either because such functions have ceased (death), or else because they lack such functions and are classified as inanimate.Biology is the science concerned with the study of life.
Any contiguous living system is called an organism. These animate entities undergo metabolism, maintain homeostasis, possess a capacity to grow, respond to stimuli, reproduce and, through natural selection, adapt to their environment in successive generations. More complex living organisms can communicate through various means. A diverse array of living organisms can be found in the biosphere of Earth, and the properties common to these organisms—plants, animals, fungi, protists, archaea, and bacteria—are a carbon- and water-based cellular form with complex organization and heritable genetic information.
Scientific evidence suggests that life began on Earth some 3.7 billion years ago. The mechanism by which life emerged is still being investigated. Since then, life has evolved into a wide variety of forms, which biologists have classified into a hierarchy of Taxa. Life can survive and thrive in a wide range of conditions. In philosophy and religion, the conception of life and its nature varies. Both offer interpretations as to how life relates to existence and consciousness, and both touch on many related issues, including life stance, purpose, conception of a god or gods, a soul or an afterlife.
Strange or Strangeness may refer to:
morning sun reminds us of the time we spent, stretching stories sharing songs and forget the rest
you know and I know this dance might never end
Life is strange, life is good, and life is all that it should be.
my eyes got caught in a strangers stare
he was searching for a witness to a personal dare
our lives crashed into a firey destiny
Life is strange, life is good, and life is all that it should be.
Life is strange, life is good, and life is all that it should be
When the clouds steal your shadow and you have no sense of direction,
lay your body down
And when your standing in the water and the world begins to matter, and you know you hear laughfter
When the clouds steal your shadow and you have no sense of direction,
