"What,"
she asked
"is the true reason
for existence?"

the room fell silent,
and all smiles faded.

"That, my dear,
is a question rising
in the minds of
all beings. It's
up to you to answer that
based on your own life.
No human can tell another
why they are alive. We
all merely live for the sake of
living, and die for the sake of
dying.
What happens in between is up to
you."
