The Beginning, The End

Question: I am the beginning of sorrow, and the end of sickness. You can't express happiness without me, yet I'm in the midst of crosses. You may find me in the sun, but never in the evening. What am I?

Question: What tastes better than it smells?

Question: What goes in the water black and comes out red?

Question: What asks but never answers?

Question: I have 6 faces and 21 eyes, but can't see a thing. What am I?

Question: I live in water, but not in the same place. Sometimes it’s drinkable and other times it's not. I am either a hunter or gatherer. I am known for being gentle and easy, but I don’t live long. You will know me by my large eyes and goofy lips. People know me by my slimy body. I can be found in your house or out in the wild but never in between. I am friendly so I will likely be your friend in school. What am I?
