The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away.

Coincidentally, I was asked a question which produced an answer similar to the quote. The question was, “why don’t we aspire to be like Malcom X, Dr King., and Chairman Fred?” I responded by saying, “we’re selfish in a sense. We all are focused on what we want to do personally rather than acknowledging our true purpose of bettering the world for those to come or educating the youth.” So, I believe to live to live a more purposeful life, we have to give back which can be done in many ways such as providing knowledge, pathways, or safe haven for those that need it.
Interesting quote.. But I believe order to live a more meaningful LIFE, is to seek the AUTHOR of LIFE for the instructions on the “how” in order to..
The future is out youth so I believe to live a better life we need to work with our youth. These newer generations are lazy, selfish, and disrespectful. We need to change that so that they are productive, independent, and caring. Most don’t have any guidance for numerous reasons and that’s where those who can should step in/up and give a guiding hand
To live a more meaningful life is to be of service to others. It’s as simple as that. Everything else is for self. But if you live in service of others in whatever way that means to you, your life will become more fulfilled.
Hi Kellee! I totally agree!
I think that a plan to find the thing that is your purpose would be to explore around and try to figure out what it is. By trying new things you will be able to figure out what your purpose is, as supposed to trying one things and forcing it to be your purpose.
I think in order to make my life more meaningful, I have to make a goal for what I really want to do in my life, and make small changes aimed toward that goal, until I am ready to make bigger ones.
Volunteer more. Give back to the community. Like Kellee said, “be of service to others”.
When I think of this, I instantly think of a movie I’ve had watched, called soul. It is about a soul attempting to return to his body while another one is attempting to find a purpose to live for. However a reasoning I thought was amazing and it is that the purpose or meaning of your life may change and that doesn’t mean it is wrong, so live life to your fullest and as stated in a quote in the movie, if you were to die tomorrow, would you die without regrets?
Read, listen, research, pray…. make finding your purpose (if you haven’t already) your primary objective. While on your journey to find it, look for ways to be of service to others.
In order to live a more meaningful life, one should commit to doing what they want to do
To live a more meaningful life, I have to read more. There is a lot of knowledge hidden inside the pages of books which I can unlock by reading more.
First let me say, I love the quote today. Give out your gift. Awesome and allows us to live more meaningful lives. Living a more meaningful life for me would be to serve with purpose.
In order to leave more meaningful life I think
1 be healthy & active
2 try to help others
3 financial independent
Love the quote.
I believe world needs love and kindness and only way to give love to the world is to feel that love inside. My life can be meaningful by raising my kids to be compassionate and virtuous. I can do that by setting an example for them to live by.
I can think of my neighbors, plan ahead, so I can keep moving forward and do what I know is right and love God, self and neighbor.
