What is the meaning of life? I stopped searching for it, and I started feeling it.
For a long time I thought meaning of life was something big I had to find.
A big purpose, a big achievement, a big love, a big moment where everything finally makes sense. So, I chased big things and when I got them, I felt... nothing. Empty. Like, is this it?
Then I realized, meaning of life was never meant to be found, it was meant to be felt in small, quiet things that we keep ignoring.
Meaning is in the morning where you wake up calm and your heart is not heavy.
Meaning is in the friend who checks on you when you are quiet, not just when you are shining.
Meaning is in being able to say no without guilt, and yes without fear.
Meaning is in eating slow, sleeping in peace, praying in private, and not needing to prove anything to anyone.
We think meaning is out there, somewhere far but it's right here.
It's in how you love when no one is watching. It's in how you stay kind even when life was not kind to you.
It's in how you protect your peace even when the world says you should hustle more, show more, be more.
Life doesn't have to be big to be meaningful. It just has to be real. It has to be yours. Not copied, not performed, not begged for.
Does your life feel like yours today, or does it feel like a life you built just to be liked by others?
Hmm. I don't know why there's a personal pic of anyone on this question... but I'll answer anyway...
My lie is always mine. There's never been anyone i would change drastically to please. I might learn to make a new dish or something (a new dance), but that's the limit. I can't change my core and anyone who wants that from me just never liked (or loved) me in the first place.
My life is pretty much all that I could hope for at the moment. I have the professional and personal and financial freedom to do what ever I want. And it feels good. No I didn't build this to be liked by other people. I shun most other people.

It feels like a life I've built over and over again so others can take it away from me before I ever complete my plans.
I don't overthink life to that extreme.
