that is something only you can answer...
she finds meaning in life helping others...that's her calling in life, what gives her life meaning...
however, if she just does so because it's what she thinks others want her to do, does any of her actions have any meaning to her?
the physical result is the same... people are helped...
for me, people will think i'm a failure... but i think i'm blessed if i have 4 basic things in life as described as Flax, Fire, Fodder, Frig... something to wear, somewhere to keep warm in, something to eat and someone to love...
that's all... if i have all four, with someone i love, making her happy, is all the meaning i need...
many would think i should go "achieve" to give "my life meaning" but to me, it's meaningless...
the subject of this thread seems simple enough... but so complex that it requires honest soul-searching to be able to answer truthfully...
i hope you find your own meaning in life

got this friend who spends her life giving herself to helping others. She lives to be needed. so what if one day she isn't? does it mean she has no purpose at all? So what will be my meaning?
