I was never asked this question until today, and it came from someone I didn't expect.
"What's your meaning of life?"
My meaning of life? Its a hard one to answer no doubt. I couldn't answer it directly, but I did answer it indirectly. Basically I said that my goal in life was to life my life to the fullest, with no regrets. Sounds simple right? But I don't think it's that easy to do. There are many obstacles to overcome, many paths with multiple forks in the road, and other things that we will come upon that will not only affect us, but others as well. And within all this I try to make a decision that can seem to be 'perfect.' But perfect in whose eyes? Mine? Yours? Theirs? I know I always put others before me. Why I do this, I don't know, maybe it's just how am I. It might be my nature, or it could be nurture, but we all know that it's both combined. 先對得住人, 就可以對得住自己。That way I won't regret what I do. But whether or not it's the best for me is a completely different story. It might be a stupid way to live life, but it's just me. And thinking about it....it's probably why I get down in the slumps when I think about what others have that I don't and all the other depressing and negative stuff.
And from what I appear to be, having a smile on my face and seeming to be that there are no worries in my life, I am the total opposite.
But in the end, what is the meaning of life to me?
