Meaning

Do you see meaning in what you are doing right now? Or, do you do those things for art sake? In other words, what is your usual motivation in life? Is life mechanical or routinary for you or you go beyond what life can offer you?

Sad to say, most individuals are "Zombies" right now. They are living dead. They just exist for art sake. They do things because they were told to do so and also because most people are doing it (a necessity). They don't go beyond or deeper to what life is all about. Worst, when they are bored in life they would either commit suicide (or become criminals) or end up in mental hospital. This is the reason why our country or the world in general is going nowhere. It becomes a "survival of the fittest", just like in the jungle during the pre-historic times. It is a modern day survival where those unfit either end up in jail, cemetery, mental hospital or other contemporary rehabilitation institutions. Thus, in relation to this, the unwritten rule of the society which is the winners or successful persons are always welcome and given praises while the losers and failures are shunned and discriminated, is very much prevalent in our present day survival challenge.

Searching for meaning in life is a serious mental exercise where commitment is important in order to find meaning in life. It is going beyond one's existence and looking back to what had been done so far. Thus, from there, where to? It is being sensitive to all the experiences in life and connecting from one event to another. Then, look for the messages of those encounters which will give you the meaning of it all.
