One where at the end of the road I can look back and measure my success by the number of lives I’ve helped, knowing that I’ve accomplished something that leaves the world better than when I entered it. I think that path can take many different forms though.
I used tofind meaning in how much I contributed to society. I don’t contribute much now, but feel that my life is meaningful just because it is my life. I don’t need to achieve any sort of higher goals or successes to be happy.
I suffered a severe case of burnout in 2007 while at university, from w hich I nevver fully recovered in terms of how much I can handle. But I’ve learned not to prioritize that.

That I came here, and I achieved the purpose for which I came.
That during my burial, people will smile (or cry) and say, “He touched my life. Who I am today is majorly because of him”
Very true. What’s done is done. Guilt n regret does no good. U could do gesture to reconcile or make better mistakes of the past.

In general, a meaningful life path would be the chosen life path, being one that was selected and followed. ACTIVE AGENCY. You do you, and know that you are you. 😎
For me, for my life’s journey to have meaning, I need to be told by other people that I was able to help them lead them somewhere beneficial… Because I know what I do, I just don’t know what it is. LOL
1. Living a life that is directly derived from our values, and not wavering when it comes time to make the hard choices. 2. Accepting that those values can change as we live this beautifully unpredictable gift called life.
Once a guy asked God what’s the meaning of life??? God replied “Life has no meaning , it’s given to create a meaning.”
If life itself is a meaning, how come people still search for the meaning of life?
I read it somewhere… Just quoted… Don’t mind
Awesome quote! 😀

What a great way to look at things! So basically it’s about helping others and making the world a better place.
Thanks Bogdan! That’s the goal. 😄
Just me continuing on the writing journey I’m on now into retirement one day. Stay the course!
Yes! stay on course! I know how hard it actually is…
Yeah, with all the distraction of today’s world it can be nearly impossible to make any progress some days.
Where my actions will directly or indirectly be beneficial for others
What kind of actions can do that?

Very interesting! What changed?

That’s a beautiful and noble path! How can you do that?
Well, I think just being me, doing my best, will help me accomplish that.
In service to others.
Doing what?
Helping the homeless in whatever ways I can.
Be good to others and yourself.
Always grateful.
No regrets!
Awesome! I think that the “no regrets” part can help us guide the others.

If you do things with the desire to help others, I’m sure there will be people telling you that you helped them. Never stop believing!

Yes, they can change, and we need to be open for change so we can receive that…
Helping others
How do you plan helping others?
In any way

That’s great! People need now compassion and encouragements more than ever!
Life is chiefly service
True…
Seeing change in the people I conversations with and they build with others
Nice! In your opinion, what changes people?
Gratitude, compassion, and kindness as guiding principles
That’s great! And where did that guided you so far?
Be surrounded by people I love, doing the things I love, living a simple life
Awesome! How does a simple life look like for you?
Small house in the countryside, working on my crafts and having people I love nearby
Serve God, Serve family and Serve animals. My current life is pretty meaningful.
That’s awesome! I’m very happy if you consider your current life being meaningful.
There is no space for ‘I wish I had ..’ in my life. As long as I am walking on the right path I do what is important to me 🙂
