Eureka!!! The Meaning of Life!

There is no point to any of this.
The secret to life is that...
there is no secret!
We spend so much of our time dwelling, wondering, reflecting--
       Am I doing the right thing?
       Do I matter?
       How can I make a difference to the world?
Like finding our purpose is the reason that we are alive.
These are not moral questions indicating our desire to improve the state of humankind;
They are implications of the roots of our insecurity.
       Am I doing the right thing?
Subjective. Isn't relevant.
       Do I matter?
You're a dot of pigment on the face of the earth so...frankly, no.
       How can I make a difference to the world?
Unless you have an unusually dense system of money, intellect, and other resources, it will be very difficult to do.
       Then why am I alive.

Because it can be so beautiful.
There is duality to every aspect of this nothingness.
That is, you can be something significant in the world if you channel yourself.
You want to do the right thing?
       Love someone.
You want to matter?
       Love someone.
You want to make a difference to the world?
       Love someone.
It is challenging to reach the kind of notoriety that imprints one on the pages of history books.
It is challenging still to love two, three, four, or even one person with all of your being.

But I do love a good challenge.
