finding meaning

autileaf

anyone else find this but

i always feel as though i need a specific meaning in everything that i do and i need clarity in what my overall meaning of life is otherwise what is the point. 

my meaning for things could even be to be happy. 

i feel as though the inherent meaning of life is to be happy and ultimately, whilst life might feel like a competition, it actually isn't because it's all your perspective and if you're doing better in life but you're unhappier then you're not exactly "winning". 

it hurts my heart seeing people just do stuff, feeling unhappy, not enjoying life. 

i feel as though every day must have some sort of meaning to it or just what's the point? 

i agonised over death for so long before coming to the conclusion that death is just simply another adventure and that death makes life all the more worthwhile and that you must make the most of each day. 

i don't know if that made any sense

  • There's no explanation as to why life is the way it is, other than others not accepting responsibility.

    Nowadays, Adults expect to be 'Taken Care of' by the State. The Zeitgeist of today is 'Stop Loss' rather than examine what's fundamentally wrong.

    Also, those who learned a trade fare better as Adults than those who went to Uni. However, we're made to believe that Uni is a Birth-Right. Again, too much entitlement.

    Cities have lost their character, while Rural Areas are drastically underserved; in terms of amenities. Though, having said that, the Country-Folk are resourceful; and can survive - even if driven underground. Believers must embrace persecution.
