' You choose the meaning '...


Life may not have any real “meaning” other than
the one that you have superimposed upon it.

In short, life will tend to mean for you whatever
you say that life means. For example, when you
say that:

“Life is a drag!”
“Life is a challenge.”
“Life is terrible.”
“Life is a dance.”
“Life is a Game.”
etc. etc. etc.

then Life won’t disappoint you.

Life will mysteriously show up for you in ways
that fully support your heart’s definition of it…no
matter how self-limiting that definition might be.

But you’ll have to take some position on it.

If you’re not willing to give your life any meaning
at all, then your inner fear that “My life is probably
meaningless!” will automatically win by default.
