—What really matters? Hmmm, I don’t know… health *smiles*

Yeah, I agree, health is something very important in our lives. But if we take a telescope (or a microscope), we can reach farther ideas. The meaning of life is something we’ve all questioned, and it’s hard to process because it depends on experience and learning. On our human level, many could say that relationships, memories, and experiences are the meaning themselves — the journey toward the end, with all the people and memories you manage to keep, is the meaning. But that’s keeping our feet too close to the ground… we can float a little.

Meaning doesn’t really exist; it’s as subjective as having an opinion about your favorite color. Everything depends on perception and a specific lens. What gives meaning to me might be irrelevant, or even stupid, to others — or the complete opposite. The value of things isn’t fixed; it’s flexible and mutable. But… we have to be careful. This way of seeing life’s meaning can be hard to digest. Losing all sense of purpose is quite common when you first face this idea. Understanding that the universe simply acts without compassion is harsh — empathy doesn’t exist in the cosmos, and sadly, it barely thrives on Earth. Yet that exact idea is the engine for meaning itself. If there’s no fixed sense and I don’t have to follow a specific path, it means I can choose whichever I want. I have a sea of possibilities and meanings to take — I just have to experience them and adopt one (or several :D) if I like them enough.

From a raw point of view, meaning is survival. From a spiritual point of view, it’s living — experimenting with others and with yourself. From a systemic point of view, it’s to seize and dominate. It all depends, it varies, and that’s okay. That’s why we have reason and the ability to choose.

Although… I don’t really know anything.
