A rather
controversial topic and it may possibly be one of the most wondered questions
in the minds of people. Putting all in one sentence, people are taught and told
in the Old Testament of the Holy Word of God that we must love Him and also
those who are around us as well. That is one of the many righteous rules and
decreed commandments in life which can be subsequently described furthermore in
the things which one should or should not do, thus having been enlightened with
goodness.
Some people view
success in life actually makes life itself a meaning of its own. By their
achievements at doing certain things, they get to feel and experience the joy
and satisfaction. There are those who just want to live and indulge in their
personal desires, doing whatever that makes them feel good. It may or may not
affect others as they pleasure themselves with what their interests are.
Environmental entertainment provides people a sense of comfort and contentment.
Affinity is also part of the meaning of life as everything is predestined to
come to pass as it is fated to be the way it will happen to be in due time.
Such like meeting certain people in a persons' lifetime and going through many
different kinds of moments in life.
People would also
treat certain activities such as sports and games, music and singing, arts and
crafts, cooking and etc with great passion as being a part of their interests
and hobbies. It gives them much meaning in life just to go through the motion
of performing these activities, likely going on a daily basis. With those who
may still be learning simple steps and those who are highly skillful and
talented in executing certain actions, the tendency is that they will
appreciate and enjoy life ever more increasingly.
Trading of goods,
items, products, firms and businesses are part of the economic system in
places, cities and countries proofs to make a huge impact in life. As this is
what sustains the life of every human for their needs and necessities for
themselves by making their purchases with currency. The major importance of
earning a living with work effort and time will usually be the case for many
people as they age into adulthood. To subsequently be hired into a company and
get their salary for their usages. To form and build a family for that matter,
requires funding as well, so by getting a job will be crucial for any
compulsory expenditures. This is somewhat the primary basis of being an
everyday part and parcel thing towards the meaning of life for most people.
Entrepreneurs and
employees help to maintain functionality in the society as they offer their
occupational skills, to perform work duties to accommodate other people by
setting themselves as contributors for their needs and well-beings in many
ways. The role of existing governments in every country determines the key
foundation of how the lives of common people will lead through their days in
this world. Some find meaning in life by aspiring to excel well in their
education to gain greater sense of knowledge about anything with regards to
learning different curricular based modules and subjects within their interests,
to be a highly intellectual individual. As they specialize themselves with
certain advanced traits or fields, being an asset to the society.
Knowing one other
thing which gives incredible meaning to life is actually being an inventor of
anything that is beneficial to the world. Also, to those whom have dedicated
and offered themselves to the progress of building a nation for the citizens in
several ways with their efforts to provide better living environmental
conditions. While those who seek after many forms of leisure, might not treat
their life with much deeper sense of thoughts. If doing certain work instead
may have some or any beneficial purposes at all. They may just think that as
long as they get to gratify their liking such as getting the opportunity of
going on vacations to other countries or perhaps the consumption of different
delicacies and delicious food. Not requiring much rigorous effort at all as
they savour these things to their hearts' content.
Individuals who
would place their career and work by earning as much money as they can get as
their top-most priority. The thought of having much money should mean that one
will have the ability and chance of living a good or better life; thinking that
wealth pertains to everything that matters when it comes to debating on the
meaning of life. It is arguably something that people find it to be on an edge
of leading a desirably comfortable lifestyle by having anything they want in
their lives. With regards to giving and defining the meaning of life, some tend
to hope that their aspirations of being able to achieve their wish, means the
whole world to them. In such instances for materialists; which may be of the
majority, they want the best objects and items of every kind that they use and
apply in their daily lives. However, some affluent people would actually still
feel and sense an aura of emptiness despite having every bit of what others who
are in the category range of poverty, would wishfully be very glad to inherit.
Fame and fortune
are also one of the many factors that people would want to gain as it shows
that they are welcomed by many other people in the world. This brings extra
meaning to life as they are living for a reason that they can treasure the
feelings of being loved by their fans. Celebrities are living legends in the
minds of those who take great interest in them. Some even being obsessed of
their talents as they keep the masses entertained. These famous people make the
society a place where commoners can get together and celebrate their passionate
love and admiration for whichever celebrities that suits them the most.
Certain wealthy
people in emphasis would still find that their lives are lacking in something.
For a good example is that it is rather pointless to have all the wealth in the
world without having the health to coordinate with and having provided the
chance in expending much or all of it due to physical weakness. After gaining
and gathering several riches with much of their efforts earlier, to realize
that they would end up facing against the missing sense of an ability that
could elevate any emotional energy encompassing them.
Due to the reason
that they have only been mainly focusing on building and accumulating wealth on
earth which may so be called and treated as a form of treasury in their eyes.
Forgetting or even neglecting one fact that it is all temporal and none of it
can be brought with them as they pass on from here. So perhaps there should be
a need to seek after a spiritual path. Especially one that really brings true
meanings to life which may hopefully be revealed with revelation to those lost
souls. Those who are heading towards the wrong direction and also by choosing the
incorrect path for the sake of safety with regards to their souls.
Life is about
making all sorts of decision and speaking of differently various words, associating and socializing with people with conversations important or not.
Everyone has a choice whether if they would choose to do deeds either right or
wrong which will affect others in a good or bad way. Such as stealing something
from others or giving away a possession. We ought to learn the appropriate
principle of showing that we care for people without prejudice and not be
corrupted with heavy sin even as we are borne as sinners in this world.
Religions may so
be a part of giving meanings to life as people follow certain rules according
to their beliefs and doctrines. They see it to be something important and that
it adds values to their life if they are serious and devout towards it. It is
their rights to choose any kind of religions they want to trust in and to
follow. There are a various variety of religions in the world, but the truth
remains unrevealed to some individuals who are not on the right road. That is
to say that whatever they practice is false and also the traditions they follow
are of deceptions.
Our every bit of
act is believed by some people of a faith that our deeds will be recorded by
angelic deities with due honor to the eternal and everlasting King, whom we
know not His absolute powerfully perfect and holy nature is of. When we bring
ourselves to face the reality of death in the meaning of life, it then becomes
soberly clear that we should strive after every known way to truly make good
use of this one life that all of us are only given. If we have a mindset to
only want to receive and keep every benefit for ourselves alone and not to at
least spare a kind thought for others, we are surely living a rather selfish
way of life which is something very unduly.
Helping those who
are least fortunate if we are well to do monetary wise is surely a virtuous
thing to do. However, it is quite true that a wealth load of money does not
interpret and compose the entire meaning of life but only just a part of it.
The hope of survival which is an utmost basic core for every human, instinct
plays a huge role in being in the vast spectrum of attaining the importance of
what is meaningful of life. Different gender relationships of love and
marriages also bring a form of hearty harmony. With having a sense of human
intimate interaction, couples being infatuated with one another is also part of
life. So also do mothers reproduce infants and nurturing them, bringing lives
to the land of life and death.
Joining as one
united nation without any disputes among different countries brings what is
known to be peace. There should not be any threats and hatred against one
another most importantly and that compassion for others are what will be
greatly appreciated if people were to have a heart of goodwill. However,
conflicts had somewhat caused detriments to the world into destruction of
experiencing dire situations at certain moments in all of history. It gave a
completely miserable meaning in life to those people who were alive back then as they have been overwhelmed by terrible situations with a rush of fear and
agony followed by casualties. Reconciliation is absolutely crucial as an act of
cooperation that eventually brings a really meaningful relationship in life
which shows mutual forgiveness. Avoid doing anything that is harmful to others'
well-being is definitely an instruction we need to follow.
Wanting to
fulfil what our wishes are, surely brings much enthusiasm and motivation in
everything we do as we are rewarded with excitement and being able to feasts on
it with our senses. Thus, thinking that this is something that will be able to
extract the essence of personal gratification in terms of going through a
pleasant life of our own, making life meaningful as well. Probably many people
think or may suppose that this ideology is all that really matters to them, but
it might possibly be just a little bit narrow minded because people would be
prone to lose their interest in these activities after a period of time.
Maybe life means
that one would have to go through and experience a series of events,
happenings, situations and occurrences. To sometimes feel embarrassed or proud,
respected or disrespected, anger and sadness or happiness and joy. Agitated
into aggression that may turn into violence, to sometimes feel hungry or
satisfied with food. Play or work, to make sacrifices or making some gains, to
be lied to and deceived by a person or to be told the truth by someone. Taking
risks or to feel safe or assured with a decision by attempting to take an action
with a motive. Earnings and losses, winning or losing something, singing or
mourning, cry or celebrate. Resting and relaxation, boredom or engaged with
something that is found to be fun and interesting. To feel sick or possess a
healthy body, sleepiness or to be awake and alert, pain or comfort, excitement
and anxieties. Love and hate, worry and distress or feel confident, to be
exhorted or discouraged. Criticized or complimented, scolded and insulted or
edified and praised, trust and distrust, giving and receiving. Enjoyment and
suffering, chaos and havoc or peace and harmony, successes and failures and to
either be rich or poor. But most importantly other than these or others that
may not be mentioned here, having a life means you will have to encounter death
one day to arrive unfortunately...
