Just as we have done

The center of life is living.

As we are conscious it is then realized,

and everything around us grows.

As we experience life,

It then experiences us.

Our joys and pain become its joys and pain.

Our grief and dismay and misdirection are

understood,

and have always been written into its law,

never to be abolished.

And when we leave this earth as mortals,

it then delivers us, as do the hands of man

yield a baby from its womb.

Just as we have done, the center of life has grown.
