What is the meaning of human life is the question of centuries!

What is a sense of life? Surely you have also asked yourself this question. Sooner or later he stands before every person on our planet. And this is not surprising, because we have the ability to think, analyze, evaluate our actions and achievements. At some point, we realize that life is not turning out exactly the way we would like, and this causes us to experience a lot of unpleasant feelings, ranging from emptiness to complete disappointment and hopelessness. This is where the question arises: how to find meaning in life and is it worth looking for?

What is the meaning of human life?

Work, money, fashionable clothes or family - everyone understands the meaning of a person’s life in their own way. Artists express thoughts about the frailty of existence in gloomy pictures of meaningless existence. Having lost our goal and guidelines, we tend to regress to something that provides an illusion or a temporary solution. Gambling addiction, alcohol, parties... An oppressive lack of natural joy leads to paying for substitutes. Knowing why I live is a natural need for people. The search for the answer takes a lifetime. And if you are one of the seekers of the answer to the question of life, happiness and true love, then I suggest going on an adventure. Let's start with the discoveries of scientists.

Aphorisms for the occasion - for the sake of thought

The beauty of aphorisms is that each person interprets them in his own way. I offer you several popular sayings of great people about the meaning of life. Perhaps this will be a “magic kick” for you. Well, take a little break from the previous “overload”.

A. Ananyev: “The goal of life cannot consist only of the promised eternal bliss; the golden gates of heaven awaiting us, to which only we should turn our thoughts and deeds, is wonderful; but there is, that is, there must certainly be something else... that brings satisfaction not in the mythical future, but today, here on earth. The purpose of life is the desire for immortality (even just name); The meaning of life is the choice of path (and actions) to achieve a goal.”
Aristotle: “What is the meaning of life? Serve others and do good. Every person individually and everyone together has, one might say, a certain goal, in pursuit of which they choose one thing and avoid another... Happiness is the goal of life.”
V. Belinsky: “Without a goal there is no activity, without interests there is no goal, and without activity there is no life.”
W. James: “Believe in the fact that there is something to live for, and your faith will help this fact come true.”
P. Coelho: “Life is a mystery that you must be able to accept and not torment yourself with the constant question: “What is the meaning of my life?” It’s better to fill your life with meaning and things that are important to you.”
B. Pascal: “The past and present are our means, only the future is our goal.”
P. Tkachev: “The life goal of each individual is to preserve and maintain his individuality.”
T. Wilder: “Life has no other meaning than the one we give it.”
O. Wilde: “The purpose of life is self-expression. To manifest our essence in its entirety - that’s what we live for.”

A scientific approach to answering the meaning of life

Scientists, exploring the meaning of life, have come to the conclusion that a person lives to satisfy his own needs. It is impossible to completely refuse to satisfy needs. For example, if you stop taking food and water, life will not last long. From big to small, immediate needs are vital. Secondary requests reflect fullness and interest in life. They are diverse and there are a lot of them. Overall they are no less important. For their sake, everyone spends years exchanging their lives of work for money. Then, by acquiring what we need from them, we manifest self-actualization. Freud said that the answer to life's question was never found. Having come to the conclusion that our life is similar to the life of animals, the scientist emphasized that no one asks the question of the meaning of life. To compare a person with an animal, then why not compare with an amoeba or a leaf of a tree. The difference from fauna is colossal - no one except humans seeks the meaning of life! It is the ability to reason about origin and destiny that distinguishes a person from everything else. Freud agreed that the question of the existence of animals, in our opinion, is determined by man himself. An example of this is domestic animals and pets in agriculture. Then it turns out that the appointment of the younger brothers is determined by the views of the older brother. If there were an elder over a person, then he would determine the meaning of our existence.

The meaning of human life is survival?

The world says “survival of the fittest.” But what does our heart tell us? Let's look at the question from the point of view of spiritual ideas about life. What the modern Church teaches, its manifesto, so to speak. She states that “there is a simple answer to all our problems. And it doesn’t matter whether you believe in God now or not, you can be convinced of the truth and righteousness of God. It is not in religiosity and memorizing prayers, but in the living Son of God, whose name is Jesus Christ, He is the way, the truth and the life. He is the meaning of life for all humanity. Give all your problems to Him, tell everything that is inside you and in sincere prayer ask Him to reveal for you your individual meaning, for Him you are a treasure.”

Rom 10:20: “...Those who did not seek Me found Me; I revealed myself to those who did not ask about Me.”

Techniques for working with the subconscious - how to make important decisions

Let's say there is a global issue. To quit your job or not. Should I leave my partner or not, etc.

We take a gold ring and tie a thread about 30 centimeters long to it. We sit on a chair, fix our elbows on our knees, and hold the ring by the thread in front of us.

Next, calibrate the answers: “Yes” or “No.”

As I did. I held the thread in front of me, and while I held it so that the ring touched the floor, then I lifted it, and while it was motionless, I asked myself the question: “My name is Sasha?”

The ring gradually begins to swing, do not forget to keep your elbows on your knees to avoid accidental vibrations. The microvibrations of the fingers should be read; they will gradually fall into resonance with the ring and cause swaying.

It's like using small shocks to cause large vibrations in a children's swing.

So, when I asked the question: “My name is Sasha,” the ring gradually began to swing closer and further from me. This will be the answer of our subconscious: “Yes.”

Then I ask the question: “My name is Valera?” The ring gradually swayed from side to side. The answer will be: “No.”

This is how we calibrate the types of oscillations: “Yes” or “No”.

Next, ask a question that is tormenting you, for example: “Should I quit my job?”

Let's say the answer is "Yes". Then we ask the question: “Should I find another job first?” If the answer is “yes,” then you begin search activity, find options, and in the same way offer “yes” and “no” to the subconscious.

There are many options that can be offered. Let’s say the answer was not to quit, then you can ask: “Should I ask for a raise?” etc.

It can be combined in various ways with the income growth line technique and the guardian angel, what I wrote above. For example, ask: “Maybe before asking for a raise, show some significant result in your work?” - naturally, then the likelihood of a salary increase will increase sharply.

But first it is better to determine the global direction of life, there are other techniques, they are given in the recording of the training at the link below, and also in the additional. The materials contain books with information that dramatically increases the level of your vibrations and expands the level of your consciousness.

Options for work, for example, will come to mind much cooler than before.

In addition, an audiobook is given with technology on how to resonate with the world. That is, your vibrations will be in resonance with the whole world, and you will achieve your global goals with small efforts (as in the example with the swing). That is, you will simply be lucky in life.

You can determine your frequency of consciousness before listening to books and then after using this ring technique.

For example, ask the question: “Is my consciousness more than 100 units?” If yes, then then: “Is my consciousness less than 150 units?” So, repeat the questions until you get a specific number.

To start moving in the right direction, in resonance, in synchrony, in rapport with the world and the universe, I recommend downloading the training and doing exercises to find your purpose and meaning in life.

Why did you come to this world, and what is your function as a living cell of a global organism. What exactly does the universe expect from you, and what will it help you with.

The meaning of human life according to psychology

Psychologists have formed the concept of human need - “a feeling of lack of something, depending on various factors and situations.” If we take a patient with insensitivity to pain with anhidrosis. A rare genetic disease that deprives you of the ability to feel pain and hunger. It turns out then there is no “feeling” of need. But in fact it exists, since, for example, without feeling hunger and not eating food, he will face starvation. So, we conclude: need is not just a feeling! This is something we can't live without! Needs do not reflect the full meaning of a person’s life. Having fulfilled all our desires, we continue to strive for achievements. A vivid example of this is a dream. You can live without it. Only life becomes boring and gray. Researchers have sorted out why people live. Dr. Abraham Maslow proposed an innovative approach by modeling the components of life.

Maslow's pyramid in work and business

People go to work to satisfy physical needs and provide security, in other words, in search of stability. When you can already meet your daily needs, it is time to strive for career growth, success and recognition.

And entrepreneurs, in turn, can analyze the desires of employees and help satisfy them: promote them, increase wages, hold corporate events in the Maldives, open a soup kitchen, provide training. This also includes improving the workflow: connecting automated systems that take over the routine.

Parables about the meaning of life

Rooster and bad day

There lived in a chicken coop a loud, beautiful rooster. He loved to wake up his owners in the morning with the first rays of sun, rummage through a pile of manure and chase his chickens. But this time everything went wrong: since the very morning it was raining like buckets, and none of the cockerel’s favorite activities was available. - Why do I need all this? I hate the damn rain! - he grumbled. At the same time, the hostess saw off her children, who were visiting her for the weekend. Handing them a bundle of pies, she said: “My dears, don’t be upset, I wanted to kill a cockerel for you on the way, but at night it began to rain, I never left the house - it was too cold.” “What are you talking about, mom, we don’t need it...” the son answered. - Oh, granny, did the rain save our Petya’s life? - exclaimed the granddaughter. - It turns out that this is so... He’s lucky, now I’m definitely not going to cut him, let him run around. Good luck! And the rain kept pouring down, and the rooster, falling asleep in the warm chicken coop, kept thinking about what a beautiful day it would be if it weren’t for the terrible weather. When asking the question: “Why do I need all this?”, think, maybe you should not complain, but give thanks?

Real wealth and man

A young man came to the sage and began to complain: “What is life if there is no wealth?” Yes, torture. I look around - everyone has cars, houses, jewelry. What do I have? There is nothing, not even normal work. But I’m still young... Oh, how I would like to get rich! - It's simple. Do you agree to have your hand cut off for a million? - No, what are you talking about, teacher! Never! - Maybe then a leg or an eye for 10 million? - No! Even for 100 million I won’t agree to this. “You see: you own something that you couldn’t buy for hundreds of millions, and yet you complain about poverty.” But you are rich, you just don’t use your wealth correctly. So take heart, and may God help you! How to become happy? See everything that you already have and not look at what others have. Multiply and wisely use what you have!

What is the meaning of life and does it exist at all?

According to psychotherapist Gleb Bagryantsev, in psychotherapy there is no term “meaning of life” as such. However, experts have studied and continue to study the phenomenon itself.

Some people believe that a person needs to constantly determine his own path. Then purpose becomes a support and makes life more comfortable. From another point of view, the search for meaning is the main motivator of existence, and not an accompanying process.

Gleb Bagryantsev

Psychotherapist.

I do dialectical behavior therapy. And the concept closest to the meaning of life in it is values. This is a certain state and self-image that a person strives to maintain for a certain period of time, often even throughout his life. Everyone has different values: to be rich, competent, recognized, to have friends.

Psychologist Andrei Smirnov notes that the meaning of life can be either chosen independently or imposed. In Soviet times, propaganda inspired people to work conscientiously in the name of the ideas of communism. Japanese soldiers were told that their destiny was to die for the emperor. Some ancient philosophers believed that the meaning of life was pleasures and pleasures. There are plenty to choose from.

Andrey Smirnov

Master of Psychology, practical psychologist.

Even the imposed meaning of life could make a person happy, free him from doubts and painful searches, and free him from the fear of death. But not always. Often, if a destination is imposed, expectations are deceived. A person becomes disillusioned and experiences a deep existential crisis.

And here, according to the psychologist, you need to realize that the meaning of life does not have to be something grandiose or generally accepted. It can be any hobby: drawing, music, breeding cats and much more.

Gleb Bagryantsev also agrees with Andrei Smirnov. He believes that you shouldn't worry if your mission doesn't seem big enough. Moreover, when goals are too big and unrealistic, they can be demotivating.

Basic human needs according to Maslow

Abraham, an American psychologist, proposed a hierarchy of needs model. In the beginning, the work of 1943 during the war was called “The Theory of Human Motivation.” Over the years, a pyramid-shaped diagram has formed.

The top three parts are called “self-expression”. Other researchers have found that the relevance of the levels depends on age. Maslow called children who do not have problems with the first two levels “lucky.” The third stage is relevant for teenagers. The pinnacle of self-actualization is achieved by the age of 50, and people who reach it are the lucky ones. It is important to note that Maslow conducted research into the lives of outstanding people, based on his own understanding. These included Albert Einstein, Abraham Lincoln, Richard Wagner (famous composer), Eleanor Roosevelt (wife of President Roosevelt). What should I do to be happy? Is the meaning of life really to be extraordinary? Yes, you cannot rely on research as it contains distortions. At the same time, Abraham recognized that only about two percent of humanity achieves self-actualization.

Finding the meaning of life through reflection

The smartest representatives of Ancient Greece and Rome thought about the meaning of human existence. The forces that motivate human activity came under their close attention. Democritus called “need” the engine of human strength and intelligence, thanks to which language and labor arose. Heraclitus considered the main influence of living conditions. He taught moderation in self-gratification and intellectual development. Plato went further and began to study the soul, dividing it into several parts. The materialist Karl Heinrich Marx noted the limitlessness of man in contrast to the animal in the context of the ability to expand. Thinking about the meaning of life became a special area at the beginning of the 20th century in economics, sociology, philosophy and psychology. Everyone agreed on the influence of needs on the meaning of life. On the rest, opinions differ. Therefore, the question still remains open until the professors have been able to come to a consensus. Maybe the answer is on the surface and accessible to ordinary people like us?

Live like everyone else or find your meaning in life

Great scientists, science professors, religious leaders and psychologists wrestle with this question. How many people, so many opinions. Everyone is looking for something that will make sense to them. We are drawn to the truth in any state. But, unfortunately, the world is unable to give us what we strive for, but gives us disappointments, pain, failures, and from the lack of true love we become evil and capable of committing actions from which our conscience suffers. We drown it out with surrogates, making excuses - “So what? Now everyone lives like this.” You are special. And even though we have a lot in common, intelligence is given to everyone personally. Our thoughts are unique and inimitable. Dreams warm our soul. No one is obliged to feel sympathy for them. This emphasizes our individuality. Therefore, there is no one formula for answering the question of the meaning of life for everyone. It will be better when we follow the path of Tolstoy, unlike Maslow, and look not at the life of geniuses, but at the life of ordinary people. How did most people live over the last 2 thousand years?

The meaning of everyone's life personally

Being confident in your meaning in life is something that every person lacks. Sometimes we can't sleep and we think. We encounter the question of the meaning of life in tragic moments. With the answer to the question “why do I live” comes peace. Let's imagine - we already know the answer. The full picture of life will open. Let's see the world differently, looking to the future. Everything will be filled with joy and transformed.

Life gives the answer

“There is only a moment between the past and the future, it is called life.” We didn't choose to appear here. It's been years since we lived here. Some have found a better job, while others spend most of their lives in poverty. Different countries, climates, skin colors. The earth is happy to welcome everyone. The sun gives light, it rains. People live from hot deserts to the Far North, having managed to adapt to harsh conditions. The sky reveals a stunning picture to everyone. Looking at the stars, we think about life. Man has always watched the stars. Descendants will also look to the sky and search for answers. Life means movement. Even the majestic starry sky moves. And at this moment, according to the modern understanding of space, we are moving. The sun rises and sets every day. Does the moon shining from the sky at night have a purpose?

Your heart beats tens of times per minute. It doesn't think of letting you down. There is no such ideal product in the world that can withstand such heavy loads. The body is a great asset for everyone. It was given to us freely. We are happy and sad, we work and we rest. A great variety of freedom and ways to realize it. At the end of the day we go to bed and dream. In the morning the sun greets us again. I didn't give my heart its first beat. And I won’t be able to extend its course as much as I want. I am both in control of my life and not in control. Powerful - because I can live longer by leading a healthy lifestyle, keeping the commandments and avoiding troubles. Not powerful - because he is not able to make the heart beat again when it stops. We are able to take and decide for ourselves what our meaning is in life. What's next? What if life after death exists!? Then the answer to life's question should be reconsidered! Another unusual phenomenon is that we often spend time where we are not. In dreams, dreams. “Stop having your head in the clouds,” they say when we think about something. We are not tied to the place where we are. Something pulls us forward. Perhaps this is a state of mind - the ability to overcome obstacles and distances. See opportunities where there are none at first glance. “Life brings everything back to where it all came from.”

I don't want to live. What should I do?

Why did we decide to tell you this parable? Because many of those who don’t want to live are like this dog. They lie on their nails for years and whine, essentially not wanting to change anything. Or wanting, but not doing anything about it.

They go to work they don’t like, overeat at night, occasionally reproaching themselves for being overweight. They continue to drown their sorrows in alcohol, again start affairs with the wrong people... And it seems like they should get away from this tormenting edge - quit, go to study, break off painful relationships, take care of their health, move to another city... But no, they complain and that’s all sink deeper into the pool of depression. Complaining, enjoying our own grief, feeling sorry for ourselves and crying - we love this more than freedom.

But there will come a time when it hurts you so much that you decide to change everything. Not from the notorious Monday or January 1, but immediately, right now. This moment will be the beginning of your new life.

So, one woman, whose weight was more than 200 kilograms, calmly ate goodies and allowed her children to take care of her. But one day I had a heart attack and called an ambulance. Only they couldn’t carry her away on a stretcher, and she couldn’t go down the stairs on her own, and she almost couldn’t fit through the door of the room... Well, what can you do, they prescribed pills and injections, although urgent hospitalization was required. It was then that she decided to lose weight and turned to specialists because she experienced humiliation, saw fear on the faces of the children, and felt the breath of death.

When death is close, when there is nothing left to lose, when those around you stop feeling sorry, you have only two options - to drive this nail even deeper into yourself, allowing circumstances to crush you completely and committing suicide. Or be smarter than the dog in the parable and rise up!

In the first option, you will personally send your soul to hell, and also turn the existence of your loved ones into it after your death. In the second case, you will have to work hard, but soon the wounds will heal and there is a chance to start all over again.

We will die someday

Yes, life under good circumstances is good. Of course, you need to work hard to preserve the beauty. Entropy does not spare the values of generations. Today we can see how degradation threatens future generations. Culture is becoming impoverished, values are being lost. This is how our body deteriorates. Wrinkles appear and as we age we are faced with the question – what’s next? Many people think about the Divine. How have I lived my life, do I deserve a place in heaven? History measures events in decades, centuries. The destinies of countries are decided in moments, as are the destinies of billions of people. Understanding that we are temporary travelers here lifts the curtain on the question of the meaning of life.

Gabriel Derzhavin (17th–18th centuries) - poet and senator of the Russian Empire wrote the following lines:

The river of times in its flow carries away all the affairs of people, and drowns peoples, kingdoms and kings in the abyss of oblivion.

Let's look at the issue of death head on. Will my existence continue after the funeral in the afterlife? If the soul exists, then yes. The Bible shows the path of faith through life's difficulties and finding peace in the hope of an eternal abode. No other book touches on the issue of life so acutely. There are thousands of believers and non-believers among us. People are born and die every day. Since childhood, a person has been asking questions of good and evil. Everyone wants to be good in their own eyes. Belief opens the way for the perfection of life - the Almighty Creator. This prospect of becoming better and more perfect (in the context of religion, more righteous) connects us with previous generations, devout and fearful of higher powers.

How young people can learn from adults

When we are young, our life appears to us like an open book. The world seems huge, and our possibilities – immeasurable. This feeling fills us both in the workplace, in friendly relationships, in everyday life, and in general in everything that surrounds us. And this is the norm for the younger generation.

But at a certain point everything becomes stable: work, friends, relationships. Does this mean that the search for the meaning of life is over? Or does the human desire to understand meaning change and transform with age?

Scientists have found that the desire to achieve a goal is natural for humans. A lack of aspirations and goals can have detrimental effects on our health and well-being.

In other words, finding meaning in life is a positive aspect of our growth throughout life and leads to higher life performance.

Education yesterday and today

Schools and institutes provide a lot of knowledge, preparing specialists for work. High technology will not give an answer. We are looking for living organisms in space, but why do we ourselves live? Only one percent of people think seriously about this issue. This is the path to the exit from the matrix. Educational institutions are silent about the main thing - why we live. It is a great mistake to run away from this question. The first schools appeared in tsarist times at churches. They taught literacy and spiritual values. With the advent of godless communism, schools remained, churches were destroyed. School knowledge does not develop character. Indifference to the main thing is the paradox of our learning. Most live materially. They don't think about the world order. The spiritual remains only a theory in their lives. Even if they had thoughts and searches, everyday worries swallowed them up. We have turned into “waiters”. We are waiting for everything to work itself out. That one day a train of happiness will arrive on our platform. Time spares no one. Rarely was anyone ready for this when dying. They don't think about the last day. There are many people among us who love the truth. They are willing to sacrifice time. We come to church in search of higher meaning. These are the people I write to. Jesus Christ once said, “Seek and you will find.” The understanding of life according to Biblical Christianity is described by Christ's disciple John. He begins his story with the words: “In the beginning was the Word.” In Greek, the Word means Logos and its second meaning is MEANING. This is how the Apostle John calls God the meaning of our existence. From the first words of the Gospel we encounter the revelation of the mystery of the origin of human life. Faust (the hero of the writer Goethe) decided to translate the word Logos from the Gospel and thought about it. Its meanings are meaning, strength, deed. And that's not all, the Logos contains all this and more. The risen Christ has defeated death and invites us to turn to the Lord. We celebrate the bright holiday of Christmas. According to the doctrine, the eternal Father sent the Son into the world. The meaning of life is not an easy idea. Philosopher Vladimir Solovyov wrote: “The goal of life is the deification of humanity through approaching Christ.”

Goal setting

“How to find the meaning of life if you don’t want anything?” - you ask. The answer, apparently, will not please you: set a goal and go towards it with the will.

What is the root of your passivity? Have you recently suffered a trauma or lost someone? Are you in a state of crisis, depression, that is, an unstable and unhealthy psychological state? Then you first need to “remove the splinter”: survive divorce, death, leaving, recover from trauma, get out of depression. To do this, you need to contact a specialist.
Once your condition is stable (or if you are currently healthy, just lazy or uncertain), you need to start working. A rolling stone gathers no moss. Already in the question “how to find...” lies the answer - to search, and not to remain inactive. Go to the goal, through all external and, above all, internal obstacles (your “I don’t want”).
“I don’t want” happens because of a lack of motivation. Why do you lack motivation? Are you satisfied with your current life? I think not, since the question arose. Then imagine the life you want, but be realistic in your plans. Have you imagined yourself, your life, the people around you, your feelings? Do you want that? That's the goal. Your life's purpose is the image of your achievements.

If you cannot yet concentrate your attention on life as a whole, then think about a specific goal that worries you more than others at the moment: work, love, education, health.

Now think about how to achieve the presented image, and what is needed for this. What do you already have? How to get something that doesn't exist? Work on your worldview. As a result, you should have a clear idea of what the universe is, who a person is and how he should live.

Recommendations for every day

Educate yourself. Get a professional diagnosis from a psychologist or take tests yourself to study your characteristics: professional inclinations and interests, abilities, temperament and character, reactions, value orientations. As a result, you should have your complete psychological portrait in your hands so that you clearly understand the possibilities and work plan.
Learn to select, filter, and not take on faith everything you hear.
Be confident in your professional qualities and abilities.
Create your own sustainable value system that includes broad concepts such as helping a stranger, not being indifferent, and more.
Treat yourself and others not as masks or people performing a specific role or function, but as a whole, independent, unique personality.
Take a strong position in relation to society and its global issues. You must have your own vision of any issue (death, life, work).
If you want to see personal meaning in everything you do, then act according to your conscience. Even if it offends someone, but you consider this the only right decision (for example, leaving the relationship), then this is what you need to do.
The meaning of life is always between reality and the desired ideal. Don't try to find the right move, look for what seems important and necessary for you here and now. Don’t be fooled by the stereotype about “stable work like people” if you have the opportunity to build your path in a non-standard modern field (video blogs, copywriting, promoting your ideas and projects).
Don't be fooled by stereotypes. About anything: marriage, work, hobbies, gender characteristics. If something is interesting and meaningful to you, if it satisfies your needs and matches your abilities, then this is the right path.
Try to always follow your values, principles, and interests. Prestige can be achieved in any field if you do it with passion and interest. And in an unloved, but relatively prestigious field, you may not achieve anything.
Develop hard work. Labor is the basis of our life. It permeates every sphere. Work is an expression of the need for respect and self-expression.

There is no such thing as a healthy person not wanting anything. Maybe your desires simply do not correspond to someone else's ideas? And who told you that they must comply? Your desires should correspond only to your needs, ideas and natural data, and, of course, to the norms of law and morality. Everything else is your right to freedom.

I repeat again: why don’t you want anything? Have you entered a course that is obviously undesirable (at the direction of your parents or society) and do not see any further prospects in your planned work? Are you already working in an undesirable field (you got a job through an acquaintance, they pay well, “I studied for this”)? Are you in a dependent relationship? Did you give birth to a child because you “have to”? Are you sick with some kind of addiction? Why have you become so indifferent to your life, to yourself? Who are you living for?

Please stop ruining your life and realizing someone else's meaning in life. Unfortunately, I don’t know your specific story. But I know for sure that everything can always be corrected: if not the situation, then your attitude towards it.

However, some psychologists and philosophers believe that life has meaning only when it is connected with other lives, that is, when your activities are useful to the whole society. Thus, we are talking about self-development, about reaching a new moral level. The level where you think about the meaning of your actions for others more than the meaning for yourself. It is also important to remember this: for others, but not to the detriment of yourself.

A little practice

I want to push you to action and take you away from devaluing life. I suggest two exercises. You can repeat it regularly, especially when you “don’t feel like doing anything.”

Imagine that you have 5 years left to live. Have you already come up with some images, values, ideas? I think yes. Probably, all the “later”, “I’ll have time”, “not now” immediately came to mind. And you probably wanted to do it right away? That's what we need to build on. Here are the first meanings for you. Constantly support them, call the genie out of the bottle and act.
Imagine that you are 80. Your friends and family have a party to celebrate this occasion. The hero of the day is invited to give a speech. You are asked to talk about your life. This is where the “magic” begins. What would you like to say to those eyes? How would you like to appear to your guests? Here are your first guidelines for the future, your first goals and meanings.

We believe in the meaning of life

Everything here is temporary: career, youth, fashionable clothes, pain, joy. This world is not so strong and promising to live in it without faith. It is interesting that when Christ brought his teaching, millions found answers in it. And among them there are those who have found their destiny. Just as there are counterfeit bills, there are also counterfeit Christians. The existence of a fake proves that there is an original. Sometimes an atheist thinks more about the issue of human life than a nominal Christian who does not attach importance to his choice. We have already spoken about the manifesto of the Church. It can be continued by describing the path of life of those who trust in the promises. A person’s relationship with the Creator is built on promises – on a Covenant.

Getting What You Want Through Prayer “And whatever you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive” (Matthew 21:22)
The promise of abundant life. Jesus said: “The thief comes only to steal, kill and destroy. I came that they might have life and have it more abundantly” (John 10:10).
The Gift of Eternal Life “For he so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life” (John 3:16)

Turn your gaze to the Lord, and you will recognize that love, unchanging and true, and believe me, you won’t notice how your life will change. Find a suitable church in your city where God will lead you, and you will be able to develop spiritually and discover the talent that the Creator has endowed you with.
