Lengthy and very informative dissertation on a four letter word: life...!! I read your post with great interest and pleasure. I also agree the two other pillars form an inherent bond. Very well written. Good luck with the contest!!
*** UPDATED: CONGRATULATIONS WENDY!!! YOU DESERVE THIS!!!

Comment from RodG
I enjoyed the OPTIMISM that radiates from this essay. The author convinces us that "Life is a gift of love and learning" that should never cease. We're shown how this process begins with childhood and continues onward into old age. Your words truly brought a smile to my face this morning. Rod

Well holy smoke's batman that was so extremely well written my jaws on the ground!
The second paragraph beginning with the words "the gift of life...." Absolutely adored in the way you put that paragraph together your work choices and the arrangement is superior.
Life is the gift of learning and love is an action word. It is in what we do not in what we say that means the most. I thank you for the reminder that life is in fact a precious thing even though it doesn't always feel that way. And of course you remind me of the days when my sons were growing up and watching them go through their stages. Very good I find no issues with spelling sentence structure punctuation or subject matter. It's very good in fact. I think it's perfection and very worthy of six stars so that's what you're gonna get have yourself a fabulous evening!

Comment from Debbie D'Arcy
Well done for taking on a massive subject and breaking it down into simple and readable form! Your prose reads well and is delightful and inspiring particularly in its description of the wonders of children and their instinctive abilities to love and learn. There is a small edit in your para starting: "Who can not be delighted "- 'hurries'. But this certainly ticks many boxes and fulfils the brief well. As you say there is yet another dimension to love and learn but that would involve a much longer read while yours is a good length for this competition. Thanks for sharing and good luck! Debbie
