Finding beauty and meaning in what we often overlook.

07/28/2022

It's by walking that one creates the path.Want to be a different person? Happier? More fulfilled? If so, you'll never get there by thinking. You'll never get there by feeling? You'll only get there by DOING. Start now...act your way into a new way of thinking, a new way of feeling, a new way of living.

Doing.

Your ability is not just a shadow backed by light. You are the light and were born to fly...

Are you a person who says, “I am going to do that” or a person who says, “I am doing that.” ?
As the wise and soulful poet Maya Angelou said, “Nothing will work unless you do.” So, waiting for the right time, condition, etc. is an excuse that will hold you right where you are - and it is in that space of “I’m going to” that precious time is wasted.

The power in our words can be forever life changing but, it is in the doing, the action, the movement of your affirmation that bends our willingness to believe we can do anything. When we bring ‘doing’ to the forefront (superseding negativity, make it current and present) we accomplish many things. And even if outcome is not quite what we intended remember
- trying is doing
- and success is only measured by your best effort.

In the grip of the nihilistic ethos of late 19th-century materialism and Darwinism, Leo Tolstoy contemplated su***de. He would be saved only by finding confirmation, in Schopenhauer's idealist philosophy, of his own earlier idealist intuitions.

Before you give up on living a meaningful life, why not come to understand the meaning of "faith" not only from a religious standpoint, but also from a scientific and philosophical one, as Tolstoy did - as your conscious will? With such an understanding, you can crawl out of the "dark woods" too.

"The faith of the ordinary people, he (Tolstoy)said, was the consciousness of life—the same as Schopenhauer’s will, but without the pessimistic connotations: there was suffering, certainly, but there was also loving kindness. Faith was inseparable from human existence. If there was human life there was faith. If there was none, life was impossible. “Faith remained as irrational to me as before,” he wrote, “but I could not fail to recognize that it alone provides mankind with the answers to the question of life.”

Feeling socially isolated or friendless is a terrible way to live your life. Even introverts need some social interaction to energize their lives through the sharing of ideas. Decades of research show increased feelings of wellness and sense of meaning in life result from attending a church of your choice and becoming involved.

New research suggests that having a firmly held religious belief can provide a sense of increased purpose in life among those who are socially ...

Given the now-documented long-term social, mental, and physical benefits of having a sense of meaning in life, the recommendation here is clear.

"There are many reasons why you may not know your life purpose. Sometimes it's because the world's problems seem too big. Or we seem too small. Or maybe we are just exhausted from life and don't know where we'll find the energy to fight for what really matters to us. But finding and living our purpose is key to having a meaningful, fulfilling life."

LIFE IS LIKE A BOOMERANG NOT QUITE THROWN RIGHT!

Is the meaning of life static or dynamic? Is it revealed, discovered, or both? This brief informational segment taken from Wikipedia provides a useful heuristic for experiencing a meaningful life.

Nature of meaning in life:

Reker and Wong define personal meaning as the "cognizance of order, coherence and purpose in one's existence, the pursuit and attainment of worthwhile goals, and an accompanying sense of fulfillment" (p. 221).[57] In 2016, Martela and Steger defined meaning as coherence, purpose, and significance.[58] In contrast, Wong has proposed a four-component solution to the question of meaning in life,[59][60] with the four components purpose, understanding, responsibility, and enjoyment (PURE):

(P) You need to choose a worthy PURPOSE or a significant life goal.

(U)You need to have sufficient UNDERSTANDING of who you are, what life demands of you, and how you can play a significant role in life.

(R) You and you alone are RESPONSIBLE for deciding what kind of life you want to live, and what constitutes a significant and worthwhile life goal.

(E) You will enjoy a deep sense of significance, satisfaction, and ENJOYMENT only when you have exercised your responsibility for self-determination and actively pursue a worthy life-goal.

Thus, a sense of significance permeates every dimension of meaning, rather than standing as a separate factor.

Although most psychology researchers consider meaning in life as a subjective feeling or judgment, most philosophers (e.g., Thaddeus Metz, Daniel Haybron) propose that there are also objective, concrete criteria for what constitutes meaning in life.[61][62] Wong has proposed that whether life is meaningful depends not only on subjective feelings but, more importantly, on whether a person's goal-striving and life as a whole is meaningful according to some objective normative standard.[60]

So, what's YOUR take on life??
