PER CURIAM.

Affirmed. See Ratliff v. State, 914 So. 2d 938, 940 (Fla. 2005) (“It is abundantly clear that the Legislature, by prescribing a sentence of life imprisonment, intends that the defendant remain in prison for the rest of his life. The term ‘life’ is sufficiently definite so that it can be understood and applied. There is nothing indefinite about such a sentence.” (internal citation omitted)).
