The word for life in hebrew is חיים which is made up of two words חי ,alive, and מי,who, teaching us an important lesson ...your life is too important to sail through it not striving to know who you truly are ,your true potential that G-D has endowed you with.If you are not feeling alive you are not living your life but letting your life live you
חיים ן is also plural teaching us that our life is not set in stone we live many lives by virtue of the changes we go through what we learn, who we become , how we grow etc but as long as we strive to know who we are and feel positively alive we will live lives as champions of our circumstances and not as casualties
