Meaning of Life

Meaning of Life

The way it sees to me, a lot of people overthink what the meaning of life is, or believe that its some great mystery why we’re here. I think its actually a very simple message, as simplicity seems to be what works best in life. To me, the meaning is simply to Live.

Going through life day after day sitting in a cubicle filing papers, then coming out and getting drunk, hating the week, living for the weekend, is not what I believe living to be.
To live, you need to always keep that inner child alive and strong. That’s the goal for me. Once that child inside of you dies, then what’s life worth living for? That child is the essence of all wonder, of adventure, of fun, of love, of excitement. When you let that child starve to death out of stagnation, then what are you doing on this planet? This world has so much to offer, on every plane of existence, how can you sit there and miss out on it all?
Stars are born, stars collapse, galaxies collide, seas rise and fall, mountains climb up and crash back to the ground, animals evolve, nations spread out and fade away, wars explode, lives are saved, disaster strikes, miracles occur, people fall in love, people get married, cripples learn to walk again, children are born, victories are achieved, people fulfill their ambitions, businesses open up, books are written, food is loved, music is made, and in the middle of all of this, you are here. So why would you sit there and do nothing with your life?

Go outside, take a risk, make a new friend, approach that girl you find cute, change your pattern, lay in a park, open your eyes, walk to work, take a new route home, live, laugh, love and learn.

Don’t hold back.

You’re only given this one life to experience, so make this life as good as you can make it.
