Life is full of meaning. When I am happy and share my happiness with others makes my life meaningful. What makes your life meaningful?

What makes my life meaningful is I know I'm able to make a difference in people's lives. Be it lending a helping hand, making a donation, or just helping out a friend solve a problem. Of course my life wouldn't be complete without the love I give and received from my family.

My very existence in this life makes it meaningful. And nothing could be more meaningful than this. There is so much introspection I have done about myself and I still continue to do so. In this whole process of living, I have realised how importance it is to share, to be a giver than a taker. It's so important to love, to be compassionate and share our space with the ones who are deprived of it. It's so important to enjoy this beauty of nature and respect it. When I do all these, I realise the meaning of life. Realising things which are larger than life, makes it more meaningful for me. Seeing the larger picture and not living in small strifes and troubles, rather being strong and moving out of them, makes life more meaningful and wonderful as well.

Hi angel108! Yes, I do agree with you completely that life is full of meaning. It is up to us to find one and make it meaningful. Like you, I am happy and find meaning if I could share the happiness I have with others. Happiness is empty if I will just keep it to myself and not share it with others. Even in success or any good things that comes my way, it will be meaningless when I can't or won't share it with my family and friends. Life is more meaningful when you know that in all the good and bad things in your life, you know that you are never alone. Take care and have a nice day.

My hardwork, sincerity, my love and affection to people whom I love (friends, teachers, parents, my wife and my children, my relatives) --in the amidst of all these people, when I achieve what I am thinking of, that makes my life more meaningful.

Life has started being meaningful to me since this march 2007. I am now an infopreneur and my own boss today. The feeling is just great. I work from home, no traffic jams, no rush hours and I get to relax a lot at the pool and eat good meals at home. Isn't life meaningful, this way? That's why I advocate as many as possible to work their life into early retirement and start being your own boss. Run your own business from home.

What makes my life meaningful is the exchange of thoughts and ideas. I think that is why I am addicted to this site! I love hearing other people's thoughts and sharing my own. If I ever stopped doing that with people I would be bored. All the people the are close to me love to debate and share ideas.
