Meaning of Life

.
What do you think the Meaning of Life is? 

Is it simply, Love?
Is it the pursuit of being an unconditional “lover of all things” (including one’s own self)?…the pursuit of giving and receiving love freely?

Is the Meaning of Life, to share?
To pursue our own happiness, using our own gifts (because we each are already blessed with everything we need), while at the same time giving freely of ourselves to the world (because we are so intimately connected to everyone and everything, we feel whole when we give)?

Is the Meaning of Life to have Hope for more (hope for a greater awareness/understanding/perspective), while at the same time being Grateful for the everything that we already have?
.
Does the Meaning of Life involve just being…being comfortable with being yourself? Could you imagine, if all we were meant to do is simply Be?  If all the Meaning of Life consisted of was listening to and following our hearts?
How wonderful that would be :)
.

Or maybe the Meaning of Life is all about making music together (as is beautifully illustrated in this Under Pressure song from the Happy Feet 2 movie)…

.

Or is the Meaning of Life something else?
And does it vary for everyone?
Or are we all on a different yet identical journey?

.
Does your life feel meaningful?
When do you feel most connected to who and what you were created to be?
.
What are your thoughts on the Meaning of Life?
