A very beautiful story is the one of the human. It gets born, it is being put on this earth with apparantly the reason to "survive, to make your bloodline survive. Now this human is alive, and the bloodline has a better chance of survival. But the human is the most interesting part believe it or not. As I said before, it is alive. Now what does that mean?
The meaning of life
The answer is we do not know. You might argue that for every living being this reason is different, or you might argue that the reason is one for all beings alive to strive for together. Perhaps it is a mix and perhaps it does not even matter. But I personally like to think it does, I like to think that my life matters, whether it is a purpose for myself, my own soul or a purpose for this whole universe.
Why we think about meaning
There are more people like me who are striving to know their meaning. This is a simple fact that is very interesting, because I do not know someone who has already figured this meaning out. What I do know is why we search for a meaning, it is because we have thought about it before and have not found it. We have thought about what our meaning was and found out that we were only existing.
Don`t we already serve a purpose?
Yes you do, whether you are studying or working you are serving some purpose. If you go to school a lot of times you are making yourself grow with more knowledge. And if you work you are gaining wealth for you and your boss or helping him achieve his goals at least. But is this really what you want to do?
The most important question
The questions this post waters down to are these: Who am I, what do I want to achieve and how do I want to do that (which should be the last one). If you know these things you will be able to work on yourself, and if you put the answers in a word document you will make it easy for yourself to put your daily activities in perspective with who you want to be. These two things should always be in line.
For me
I will take myself as an example. I am a support, the second man. I want to be someone who protects and empowers others on their quests if their quests help to improve this world. I want to be loving and caring on my own quest and want to have made this world a better place.
