Introduction to Philosophy
Meaning, or purpose, is undoubtedly one of the main stimuli for inspiration. While almost anything can inspire, a sense of purpose not only gives immediate incentive, but a worthy goal at the end as well. Life itself would hardly seem worth living were it to lack any meaning. This essential need for purpose, however, is not so easy to generalize on a personal level. Individuals can interpret similar ideas with great variance. This symptom is aggravated further when something as complex as life's meaning is discussed. I, personally, find meaning in my relationships with people. From my family to my friends, from my lovers to my foes, every encounter I’ve ever had with anyone has made some impact on who I am. It affects my very life; it even molds my perspectives on time’s grandest themes: loving, aging, and learning. Without all of the relationships I’ve grown in and out of, I would not be who I am today. I would understand neither my own psychology, nor the psychology of others. Without interaction all together, existence itself could fall into a naïve, emotionless void. Without touching the lives of those who have touched mine, I would very well pass away as alone as my life had led me to be…And a meaningless life is not one I want to live. So I will continue as I have thus far; Savoring the enlightened, sentient existence I have, and enjoying as much love and as many friendships as my time will allow. I will continue to expand both my personal and academic understanding through this intelligent communication exclusive to man kind. And through this learning, life will not only have a meaning, but it will have one that I understand.
