April 14 - Thursday Inspiration by Jacob Sokolofsky https://padlet.com/23sokolofskyj/khibo9wgpgbhbicz Thank goodness we have a few days off en-us 2022-04-08 02:36:58 UTC 2022-04-14 13:43:11 UTC hello@padlet.com Jake Sokolofsky - Thursday Nihilism 23sokolofskyj https://padlet.com/23sokolofskyj/khibo9wgpgbhbicz/wish/2135679702 What is the meaning of life?]]> 2022-04-08 02:42:18 UTC https://padlet.com/23sokolofskyj/khibo9wgpgbhbicz/wish/2135679702 Robbie Ansley 23ansleyr https://padlet.com/23sokolofskyj/khibo9wgpgbhbicz/wish/2143879737 I don't think life has a meaning, but not in like the depressing and miserable way, but just in that life is what you make of it. I think that anyone can assign whatever meaning they like to life. If someone thinks life is about helping others while someone else thinks life is about love, then so be it. ]]> 2022-04-14 13:35:35 UTC https://padlet.com/23sokolofskyj/khibo9wgpgbhbicz/wish/2143879737 Trey McCardell 23mccardellt https://padlet.com/23sokolofskyj/khibo9wgpgbhbicz/wish/2143883939 “Ultimately, man should not ask what the meaning of his life is, but rather must recognize that it is he who is asked. In a word, each man is questioned by life; and he can only answer to life by answering for his own life; to life he can only respond by being responsible.”

Viktor Frankl


“Life has no meaning. Each of us has meaning and we bring it to life. It is a waste to be asking the question when you are the answer.”

Joseph Campbell


“For the meaning of life differs from man to man, from day to day, and from hour to hour. What matters, therefore, is not the meaning of life in general but rather the specific meaning of a person’s life at a given moment.”

Viktor Frankl

I filled this with quotes because people a lot smarter than me still struggle to answer this question. I think the question itself can not be answered by a simple, universal answer. "You just gotta keep livin man, L-I-V-I-N"

If I had to pick one element of life that makes it worth living, I'd answer "love". Feeling, experiencing, and giving love seems to be an essential part of human existence in terms of creating a fulfilling life. ]]> 2022-04-14 13:39:52 UTC https://padlet.com/23sokolofskyj/khibo9wgpgbhbicz/wish/2143884938 Martha Mundell 23mundellm https://padlet.com/23sokolofskyj/khibo9wgpgbhbicz/wish/2143885181 The meaning of life is truly complex. Personally, I think that it is a gift, that provides you with the opportunity to grow. Everyone has a purpose to fulfil, and it is an overall journey. ]]> 2022-04-14 13:40:05 UTC https://padlet.com/23sokolofskyj/khibo9wgpgbhbicz/wish/2143885181 Emma Decker 23deckere https://padlet.com/23sokolofskyj/khibo9wgpgbhbicz/wish/2143885414 The meaning of life is different for everyone. For some people, life is all about helping others. For other people, life is about finding love and happiness. Each person will have a different goal in life whether it is about their career, family, or about love. ]]> 2022-04-14 13:40:17 UTC https://padlet.com/23sokolofskyj/khibo9wgpgbhbicz/wish/2143885414 Nathaniel Harbst 23harbstn https://padlet.com/23sokolofskyj/khibo9wgpgbhbicz/wish/2143887693 I think that the meaning of life is to live in a way that is fulfilling, rewarding, and makes you happy. I think living graciously and humbly is important. To make an attempt to place yourself above others or above the world around you is vain. I believe everyone should make an attempt to help others and make the world a better place. I think it is important to be thankful for what we are all given, such as the world in which we are blessed to live, and cherish it. In a time with so much turmoil, violence, and conflict I think it is important to take a step back and look upon the simple things with admiration and appreciation. Life should be simple, although it can be hard. I would say it takes hard work to live a happy life, as it often takes hard work to live comfortably, but then again everyone views the meaning of life differently. I also think that one's perspective on the meaning of life is subject to change throughout their life as their world views, morals, etc change. I should stop here or else this response might never end...]]> 2022-04-14 13:42:06 UTC https://padlet.com/23sokolofskyj/khibo9wgpgbhbicz/wish/2143887693
