The Big, Beautiful Mystery
Life means being alive, growing, changing, feeling, and responding to the world. From tiny ants to giant whales, from trees to humans, anything that breathes, grows, or moves in its way is called living. Scientists say life is what happens when something can eat, grow, use energy, and reproduce. It’s what makes you blink, birds fly, and flowers bloom.
More Than Just Science
Different people explain life in other ways. Scientists see it as a system made of cells and energy. Religions say life is a gift or a journey given by a higher power. Philosophers ask what it means to live well or with purpose. Whether you’re playing tag, reading books, or hugging your pet, life is the whole magical mix of being you, thinking, feeling, and discovering the world.
