Some intellectual folk think that it's knowledge, you want to learn as much as you possibly can, and that enhances your life through understanding or wisdom. Some believe it's power, 'I want to get as much power as I can, perhaps to earn as much money as I can have'.
Other people think it's to reproduce, to have a family, or just to enjoy sex. Others feel they're here just for pleasure, 'I'm here to have a good time, to enjoy the days and the hours while I have them'. Some feel that compassion is the reason why they live, and some folk go to no mean feats to express human compassion to others who are in need across the world. Some say, 'Well, I want to fall in love, and I want that love to last a lifetime, that's what I want to find'. Maybe it's filled with the froth of activity, and yet deep down you know that that's not what life, this life that you've been gifted with, is all about in the end.Ĭommon answers often are these: the meaning of my life is to find happiness, to find fulfilment or flourishing.
James asks the question: 'What is your life?'.
