Sense of Life is more something like a meaning in life. The word 'sense' can be defined in many ways and is relative, while meaning is something more clear and something that doesn't need a definition. I think the sense of life is something that changes as we change. I used to think the sense of life was being happy, later I thought it was to help people and make their life easier. I suppose the way I look at things now, the only sense in life can be to grow, and to develope further as a human being. In the end, maybe to fully realize what is going on in the world, to understand connections between certain things and basically, to be able to hold my head up high when I have to die and to be able to say without looking back that I've always been true to myself. Once yo're true to yourself you're true to all your surroundings too. I think to have a meaningful life, you have to have a life that is filled with everything that belongs to you, and with nothing else. Do things hat you please, wear what you want, think the way you consider right - don't let anything limit you in any way. Be what you want to be and don't let anyone make you something that you are not, the life you're currently licing needs the label 'your life', and you should be able to talk about it as 'your life' without lying. In my opinion, when someone is fake and pretends things, copies others etc., he lives a life that is put together by many others', but not really by himself.
Eventually (as it looks now) I will spend my life with a job that focuses on helping others. I will switch to a school in summer that allows me to work a week in some social institution and go to school a week, taking turns. I am not sure if I am meant to have a job focusing on helping others as much as working in social institutions requires it, but it is something that doesn't waste my time but uses it in a useful way. This will be updated as time goes by and as things change around here, whenever necessary. |
