crossing life?
|
|
Hi everybody
I just came across an expression which said "crossing life" (was not part of a sentence, just some sort of header). And I was wondering what is meant by this? Is it like "living life" or something like this? Google didn �t really help me too much. Thanks a lot :) Have a great weekend!

HI, in French it would translate litterally �traverser la vie � - I guess it means that we are on earth just as a passing.....if you think what I �m saying corresponds to your text which went with the heading, then I guess this is it :-) have a nice day, bye

Or could it have been �crossing line �? |

@Lynne: Shouldn �t it have been "crossing the/a line" with an article?
I used to watch an American series about a forensic pathologist which was called "Crossing Jordan" (the main charecter �s name was Jordan) and it was a play on words. You can read about it in the link I gave. The point is to cross can mean several things and it �s really difficult to say without the context 1) to go across; to pass or stretch from one side to the other; or to cross smb 2) to oppose somebody or speak against them or their plans or wishes ....
