What's the word for "life" but with emphasis on the positiveness of life?


I know that 人生 is used for “human life”, and 生命 for “life” in the biological
sense. But I want to express that life (whatever) is something good, something
positive and I don´t know if it's possible.




What about いのち (and the kana spelling here is intentional):

> 盗人が来るのは、ただ盗んだり、殺したり、滅ぼしたりするだけのためです。わたしが来たのは、羊がいのちを得、またそれを豊かに持つためです。
> （ヨハネ福音の10:10）

My other thought is ライフ in the katakana.

My sensibilities could be off on both of those since I'm not a native speaker,
but I get the impression that the 和製英語 has a positive feel to it and the other
can mean life in the sense you would want to call good better than 生命 or 人生.
