The meaning of life is putting meaning into life. Everybody has a life purpose. I know mine. Ever since I started surrendering to life and going with the tao, everything has been unfolding around me and I see the truth in all things and ...beings. Everything and I mean EVERYTHING has been going better than I ever planned it to be. By just putting my thoughts, feelings and actions toward my goals and living my life filled with love does miracles. Never give up, be persistent and don't let others influence you to go another direction because they think what you're doing is a bad idea or you won't make enough money, etc. I can only sum up what I'm saying in these words;

"when the wind does blow against the grain, you must follow your heart."
