Can you tell me what life is?

I know everybody alive needs to work to earn money and raise themselves, but once in a while I do not really understand, why we live? Life is not only a lot of happiness but also plenty of misery.

Therefore, it is wonderful if you have a wish/dream to achieve. On the other hand, if you have nothing to do, what do you live for?

It is terrible when everyday is over and we just do things that others tell us to do.

Can you grant me a wish? I want to have a thing to try on my best of it. I am confused and I can not find what I want.

Show me what life is!
