Someday, We'll All Be Free
Every day, I drag myself into this forsaken factory to assemble cars for 9 hours. Grueling work. Long hours. For my family. My kids. My wife. I've lived 2 lives.
I look around and I see these young men and women. I'm the prime of their youth. Most of them have no idea what they want to do in life. I would ask my coworkers, where do you see yourself 5 years from now. Most of them have no answer. I weep for them. What does it all mean? Mundane work. Mundane lives. A mundane existence. It can't be all for the chase of money.
How do we define the meaning of life? Most would say god gives us meaning and I respect that answer; I am a former minister after all. But I cannot trap such a thing inside as this inside so small of a box.
I believe self fulfillment is the meaning of life. Doing whatever you can, while you can took achieve the pinnacle of joy. You cannot truly spread love and joy to others unless you have it within. We cannot give what we do not possess. We all must truly find ourselves and what makes us joyous inside.
Happiness is based on external things. But joy can only come from within. It's based internally.
