The sense of Life


That is a very delicate topic. It is one of these deep questions, like “what is love?” or “what is coming after the death?”, for example. And also it is a very personal question, everyone cans response differently, everyone can define it, because precisely that can means something different for each person.


In my case, this is a question that I have asked to me more than once. But yet I don’t have an answer or a conclusion about that. I have thought that the sense of life is related principally with the beliefs of the people. Beliefs are the things that guide the life of the people. Particularly, I believe in the goodness of people (yes, I know, I’m very optimistic) and I think that the sense of the life is to live quiet, don’t disturb to others, don’t harm others, and enjoy every moment as it been the last.



For example, the catholic people believe in God and the eternal life, and they direct their life in this sense. Long time ago I lost this beliefs, and because of this, this topic is hard for me because I don’t have a clear belief, something structured that can guide my life… so I have to think in what are the things that give sense to my life. And some of this things are my family, been with them, love them, support them. Another thing is enjoy all moments of my life and learn of it.

Obviously I have to keeping develop this topic… it’s really important to have clarity about that, because is the only form in which I can enjoy and to be conscious of my life and my possibilities.

  3. Precisely the beliefs, especially the religious are a relevant point in the definition of the sense of life. But still I don't know somebody that ask, what is the sense of your life? He answer “to act well to achieve the eternal life"
