Recently, I was helping someone with a bit of “technology” and trying to get across the idea that we can now “ask the internet” pretty much anything. In the particular case with this person, it was about finding the address of a retreat center that we knew the name of. I suggested that simply typing the name in the address bar of a browser would produce the address. To further illustrate that one could ask anything this way, I typed, “What is the meaning of life?” into my browser.
What appeared was this wonderful 4-minute video that put the question into a very helpful perspective.
The main point is that we find meaning in our lives through 3 activities:
Communication
Understanding
Service
I hope you’ll take a look and see how these three might apply in your life.
