If we assume our human lives have some deeper meaning, I think it’s not only reasonable but important to be curious about what that meaning is.
The short answer is, I don’t know. And by that I mean, I really don’t know.
But I’m damn sure it’s not anything like these:
- Treat others poorly
- Put my own needs over others
- Try to be better than everybody else
- Hurt others or the natural environment
- Take more than you need
- Lie if it is convenient
If my assertions are true, and the meaning of life definitely is not one of those, how much more do we need to know?
