#meaning #meaninglessness #purpose
you can find meaning to your life from the work you do, the added value you can provide to your customers, what you bring to your work community, what is the best you can give to your employer, what you are to your spouse, offspring, relatives and neighbors. some people find their purpise from duties they have. some from thei passion and the lucky ones from what they love. the point is that life has no meaning before we decide/realize it ourself
I wholeheartedly agree!
What I was trying to explain in this video is my belief that all of those things provide meaning only if and because of other people. Nearly everything you listed explicitly states so as well: "provide added value to your customers", "help your community (at work or elsewhere)", "be the best that you can be for your employer/spouse/offspring/etc."
Where it is not explicitly stated - "the work you do" and "the duties you have" - I am of the opinion that those can only provide meaning if we believe that we are providing value to other people through that work and those duties, be it to someone specific that we care about, a group of people who need what we provide, a greater cause, or otherwise.
As for love and passion, I think those pretty much always come from other people in one way or another, as per all the examples in the video.
I also share the belief that there's no set meaning of life, the same way we don't have set passions, interests or purpose. Those arise depending on the conditions and circumstances of our lives, which themselves are a whirlwind of interactions with and consequences of other people.
