Yes. In fact, it comes from the Latin word "serenitas".

Okay, this is my initial shot at them. I expect someone else to correct them!

1. vita est ludus qui ludendus est.

2. vita est simplex, ea modo non est facilis.

I believe they would be:

1. ut alii viverent.

2. invenias pacem, anima pulchra.

George, could you take care of jonboy's translations? I'm not sure how to go about them. I couldn't find the definition for forward, and I wasn't sure what part of speech I was supposed to be looking for: noun, adjective, or adverb. Oh and if you mind me encroaching on your territory, I could skip the next couple of translations. Just let me know. Thanks for giving me the chance so far to refresh my Latin skillz! Smile

It's only my territory insofar as I have been the most active translator.
You are very welcome here.
Enjoy!

ante can be a preposition or an adverb.
Quote:
II. Adv., of space and time (the latter most freq.).
A. Of space, before, in front, forwards: post me erat Aegina, ante
Megara, Sulp. ap. Cic. Fam. 4, 5, 9: fluvius ab tergo, ante circaque velut
ripa praeceps oram ejus omnem cingebat, Liv. 27, 18 ; 22, 5: coronatus
stabit et ante calix, Tib. 2, 5, 98 : plena oculis et ante et retro, Vulg. Apoc. 4, 6

Charlton T. Lewis, Charles Short, A Latin Dictionary

retro is an adverb.
Quote:
I. Lit., of place, backwards, back; on the back side, behind.
a. Denoting tendency, direction, with verbs or nouns of motion: multa
videbis retro repulsa revorti, Lucr. 2, 130 ; so very often with redire,
regredi, repetere, remittere, respicere, reverti, revocare, etc., v. h. vv.,
and cf. Drak. ad Liv. 22, 6, 7, and 27, 28, 6: vestigia retro sequor, Verg.
A. 2, 753 ; 9, 392; 11, 405: dare lintea retro, id. ib. 3, 686 : ora retro
Flectit, Ov. M. 15, 685 : retro inhibita nave, Liv. 30, 10 et saep.: iter mihi
retro ad Alpes versus incidit, Cael. ap. Cic. Fam. 8, 15, 2; cf.: fugam
retro spectante milite, Liv. 8, 19 : fugit retro, Hor. C. 2, 11, 5 : ne
currente retro funis eat rota, id. ib. 3, 10, 10 : meretrix retro Perjura
cedit, id. ib. 1, 35, 25 : retro properare, Ov. H. 5, 31 : unde ad hunc
orbem redii, unde retro nemo, Sen. Herc. Oet. 48

I believe that the first one would be:

id fuit descensus lentus in vita quam non volui

And the 2nd would be this:

id fuit descensus lentus in vita quam non concepi.

I'm not sure if it would make sense to the Romans or not, but I tried to translate it pretty literally.
