 ³Where Did it All Begin?²
 
 There is no one definition of life. Life is what you 
 make it out to be. It cannot be described or defined. I 
 believe that what you put into life is what you get out of 
 it. The tasks you encounter will be difficult, but 
 hopefully rewarding in the end. Life contains everything 
 from a one celled organism to the most complex living thing. Life is a series of choices that one must make. Life cannot be planned or changed. It¹s pre-planned, so everything is etched in stone just waiting to happen. Organisms are forced to survive with the features given to them. Everyone has there own special contributions to life as a whole. Not one thing is the 
 same as the other. Everything has properties that are 
 not identical to anything else. Life is variety.
 
 There are many theories that people come up with over 
 time about the origin of life. I believe in spontaneous 
 generation. This states that living things originated from 
 non-living matter. Charles theorized that life commenced 
 by a ³warm little pond² where deep inside organic chemicals 
 were stirring. I believe that this could have one day, 
 promoted the first simple organisms. Over the next century 
 many other theorists started to ponder the thought of 
 Darwin¹s hypothesis. Later researchers decided that 
 Darwin¹s ³pond² was actually an ocean and began to try to 
 figure out where amino acids, the building blocks of life 
 could have come from. I believe that the most complex 
 organisms originated from this ocean.
