“Life is not something that has a meaning, it is something we give meaning to.”


To me, what comes before discovering myself, is discovering my life. What does life represent? Is it something that I just received and lived? Or is it something that I have just as all the others do? After all those struggling ideas, it dawned on me that life, for all of us, is something that awaits us to create.  It inspires me a lot when watching this video. It contains many celebrities who gave speeches based on this topic. They might use different ways to describe their thoughts. However, the concept they have all leads to the same place. They have some difficulties the faced in their lives, but they didn’t give up. They knew that those things were what they wanted to do. So they insisted on them.
 Compared to those celebrities, most of us are confused about what is truly the meaning of life. Some people wander around doing nothing while others work hard to reach their goals. Here, we are not talking about being famous or becoming someone that matters a lot. Instead, we are truly looking for a reason why we are alive. You don’t necessarily need to be somebody, but you definitely need to be yourself. Just try to give the life you are living a meaningful path. A path that you won’t regret step on. 

Because we are the creators of our own lives.

  1. Then what is "not being yourself?" And how do you plan to "give your life on a meaningful path?" I am so eager to see your further exploration of your thoughts on these!
