it stopped and the roof opened
and a giant hand came in and
picked me up. .Soon I felt my

later I 'had a splitting headache
and I felt much smaller.
Suddenly' the giant' hand came

whispered to Coal for she was

Life is the living . between
birth and death. It is something
that should be cherished by all.
-Life-ia_God's. gift to all mankind.
Life is a mystery, never to be
solved. Most of us live from one
day to the next without really
knowing why. Life Is not a
joy -ride it has it ups and downs,
its gaiety and sadness. Life is
life.
