The Meaning of Life

"I think the purpose of life is to constantly draw closer, to exhaust ourselves in the incredible journey of exploring every inch of ourselves and this planet, of feeling love and passion and curiosity and joy (things we’ve all felt before) but feeling them on a grand, deep, moving level; to an extent where you think to yourself that you didn’t think it was possible to feel this way, how could we ever go back to a life of mediocrity, of “good enough”; i think, the purpose of life is trying to get as close as possible to our truest, best selves, and oftentimes we’re at our most humble and beautiful and invigorated and compassionate when we’re surrounded by landscapes that feel more like home than the house we grew up in, and in the company of people that feel more like long-lost brothers and sisters and soulmates than the small-talk friends we see day-to-day in our normal, 9-to-5 routine. it’s about going out into the world and experiencing moments and people and places so spectacularly awe-inspiring – moments where you think, this is what it means to be alive – and promising to spend the rest of your life never settling for less than extraordinary.
because once you realize just how miraculous the world can be, with all its people and possibilities and moments just waiting for you to discover, and all the wonder you can feel and grasp and hold and touch if you just are out there, it’s hard to be okay with anything less.
Remake, decide, repave, find a way to your bliss.
I think that is the purpose of life." Found on Tumblr
