The "Life is..." thread.

Ever diminishing scope; the comforting lies we are told or tell ourselves in our youth - you can do anything, be anything - gradually or not so gradually giving way to the cold, hard, constricting  reality that er, no you can't.

Life is a sowing, a reaping and a learning what not to sow. Especially nothing.

And then there's this 80 year old Chinese guy who's still plowing and cropping with a smile.

Yeah, definitely sowing and reaping. The best word I can think for it really, though I doubt anyone will agree with me... though it's not meant in any supernatural sense, is Karma... good or bad it all comes back to you in the end.
