I was just wondering what most people felt gave meaning to their lives. I personally get most of the meaning in my life out of the search for understanding, which is a step on the path to having a relevant meaning in life. At the basis though, things I find meaning in tend to grow from some form of pleasure. I enjoy understanding things ... the ah ha. I enjoy talking with people and learning from them. Personally I don't find meaning in everything I enjoy though (like sleeping/eating ...), but I could see how some might and was wondering if some people did. I just realized that I should differentiate this clearly from the meaning of life thread - I don't mean the larger implications of what life means, but the meaning you find in your specific life. I guess it's also just what's important to your happiness in a way (though maybe not exactly because eating and sleeping are important to my happiness, yet that's not really what I am curious about).
There's already one of these on the go flower. Look for why do I bother in this forumPlease Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
