find meaning in life

I pretty much feel the same way. I feel like i not only don’t know what my passion in life is but i feel like i don’t know my self. I want to be satisfied with myself. and i feel like there is more out there but i don’t know how to access it. i don’t see any hope in the future. and i don’t really know where to go form here beyond googling “the meaning of life”.

hi
I am a 23 year old. I am an engineer. I feel there is no one to help me out , to guide me to a greater reason. I am unhappy.Please tell me how to be satisfied with myself..I dont know how to be satisfied.I feel low and I cannot see what I have to be five years from now.I am living aimlessly,I dont know what my passion in life is.I want to get fame,money,everything..I always visualized my life as a dream and now when i am seeing the life i feel depressed , I cannot settle for this thing.

i want to find a meaning, something that will make me cherish the life i has, something that will keep me going. there are many powerful things on this planet and one is the power of human emotions. love can be a meaning or can be the opposite, we do crazy things to feel it and have it. material and sexual satisfaction can be meaningful in life but its not fulfilling in a longer sense coz materials break,crashed,ruptured, relationships maybe unbalance,sway,feelings evaporate. what makes life worth living? i think the answer is lies in finding what makes us important and special. whatever we do, we keep doing it coz it makes us feel important. we love people who make us feel important and special. another thought that ive read is ” i ask God for all things that i might enjoy life but he gave me life that i might enjoy all things.”

Sometimes you just have to make the pieces fit, and the right person makes a HUGE difference.

What’s the point?

all of you, go read “Man’s Search for Meaning” by Viktor Frankl. it is an incredible book, and it will help. i promise.

I have to wonder what the meaning of my existance is. My father was told that he would never have kids, that he was unable to have kids; yet here I am, a product of never.

What am I supposed to do that even physiological defects couldn’t stop me?

I feel very lost and like things doesn’t make any sense
like ‘what is it good for?’ you know?
i’m begining a serius self-discovery journey, hope to be better on the other side.

I have done pretty much thinking about this goal and certainly, I am not REALLY done with finding a “higher meaning” of life… but this goal was about something else for me – my meaning in life.

And it is: be satisfied with myself.

Some people would like to be happy, other search for fame or would like to be remembered. Maybe those could be side-effects of what I want but not primary reasons to live. Be self-satisfied is a good reason to go on. And when I say satisfied, I mean satisfied on all aspects of my life: my mind (mental), body (physical) and soul (emotional, spiritual, social levels).

This was a beginning… now I have to figure out, what makes me satisfied. :) It is exciting!

What’s the meaning of life? It is really a hard question for me.
I have asked many people about their meaning of life, including my mother and my friends. Sometimes this question makes them feel uneasy.

To me, the meaning of life is always changing. During some stages in my life I thought I have found it. But as time passed by, I cann’t be satisfied with the meaning I found.

The meaning of life for each people is different. Now I think Love is the meaning of life. A peaceful, wise inner spirit is the meaning of life. I want to live in this world with love and harmony.

My boy friend found that I tends to ask the meaning of life when I am sad or have some pressure ^_
