We weren't put here by the universe to attempt a "good" life.
It is not merely for the pursuit of satisfaction that we live with beating heart and yearning soul.
We have never been destined to play it safe...
for we were meant to burn.
The more people mean something for you and for who you mean something, the closer you get to the meaning of life..
Life's about the journey, not a destination.
We may say that one's unrealized potential, one's undeveloped growth needs, may become one's fate. Seemingly, life demands not only adaptation to external reality but, equally, adaptation to inner reality, to what one is "meant to be" in terms of the force patterns of the objective psyche. There appears to be a compelling urge to adapt to what one is meant to be-to one's inner truth-which may have little or nothing to do with one's conscious ideas or purposes.
Love is our true destiny. We do not find the meaning of life by ourselves alone-we find it with another.
The ultimate direction of evolution is toward greater truth, beauty and goodness and more and more matter becoming "God" conscious.
Modern man has the means to live but often no meaning to live for.
I believe the very purpose of our life is to seek happiness. That's clear. Whether we believe in a religion or not, whether one believes in this religion or that religion, we are all seeking something better in life. So, I think the very motion of our life is towards happiness.
The problem lies not in the question, "What is the meaning of life?" The problem is not finding Love as the answer.
Man is the only animal for whom his own existence is a problem which he has to solve.
“There comes a time in your life when you have to let go of the life you planned and live the life you were meant to live...
Love is truly the essence of life.”
I'm just an actress, you know? An entertainer: a player. I mean sure I recycle and buy unbleached coffee filters and all like that. But in the big scheme of things, I feel like my real contribution is more to try to affect people's FEELINGS, if that makes any sense. So when they would look at a tree, they'd just naturally feel like: Wow, a TREE - you know? They'd feel a different way about the world so they'd act differently, without having to actually change their rational thoughts and ideas first. Because it seems like that's what people overlook - they argue with each other in WORDS when words are pretty much secondary.
