What is the meaning of life?

What is the meaning of life? The meaning of life is simple – it is love. There is no other. If there are other things we seek or need or strive for, it is only because of love. How we can understand it and grasp it with our finite minds. How we can be worthy of it, or how we can realize that we have been loved in times when we are most undeserving of it.

Wisdom, truth, power. They do not possess meaning in themselves. They are but avenues with which to be more acquainted with love, to be more immersed in love so we can discover who we really are and so that we may not lose what we have struggled so hard to find.

God is love. Family is love. Work is love. Passion, excellence, immortality, freedom, all these are but attributes of love.

The meaning of life is in this simple word. And we just couldn’t believe it. So we often take the detour instead of pursuing the straight path.

Whatever road you are in right now, do not be fooled. There is only one desire and one destiny. And you must find it if you truly desire to find what is the meaning of life.
