SORRY, I can't do it in 6 words (so I don't deserve to get "Best Answer."  However.....

I don't usually like to cut and paste answers, but for this question I simply must.  This song, which I've pasted, explains life well.....at least to me it rings absolutely true.  I think the song is absolutely profound.

Alanis Morissette » You Learn

I recommend getting your heart trampled on to anyone

I recommend walking around naked in your living room

Swallow it down (what a jagged little pill)

It feels so good (swimming in your stomach)

Wait until the dust settles

You live you learn

You love you learn

You cry you learn

You lose you learn

You bleed you learn

You scream you learn

I recommend biting off more then you can chew to anyone

I certainly do

I recommend sticking your foot in your mouth at any time

Feel free

Throw it down (the caution blocks you from the wind)

Hold it up (to the rays)

You wait and see when the smoke clears

You live you learn

You love you learn

You cry you learn

You lose you learn

You bleed you learn

You scream you learn

Wear it out (the way a three-year-old would do)

Melt it down (you're gonna have to eventually anyway)

The fire trucks are coming up around the bend

You live you learn

You love you learn

You cry you learn

You lose you learn

You bleed you learn

You scream you learn

You grieve you learn

You choke you learn

You laugh you learn

You choose you learn

You pray you learn

You ask you learn

You live you learn

Answer 11

Born, then I "lived" until death.

(Ya know there are some very nasty people who like to give a thumbs down to what I say- no matter how good or bad it is- simply because they wish to sway the public into believing that what I say should be discounted- It is these judgmental parasites who add nothing of value to life at all- I don't know who this jerk is- but they really ought to get some help or up their medication!).

Answer 12

Buddy, it's time to come home.

Answer 13

Accept whatever happens to you, in peace.

or/ and...

abandon yourself in the Hands of God.

Answer 14

Is the question, "What would they be?"  In that case I would say; The answer to life is 42.

Answer 15

I wouldn't believe them until I placed it through a process of thorough verification.

Why?

1) Human knowledge and alleged wisdom is overrated.

2) Humans are bullshitters -- more than half the things you hear from someone is false.

3) There has never been anyone I have ever encountered who was so altruistic and benevolent as to openly give me the answers to the wonders of the universe rather than hoarding it to themselves.

4) The person who possessed this knowledge (if he ever did) would know that most humans would try to use it to their own personal advantage or twist it in some way to create a following or religion.  Therefore, he would more likely keep it to himself than risk that the twisted truth be used as a very potent mental weapon against others.
