I am living, existing on this planet. I am trying to live my life the best possible way I can, that way which will bring me happiness. I strive for happiness because I am human and human beings lean toward seeking out happiness and self-fulfillment.

Everyone should have their own meaning for life and what they would like to gain from it, I for one would like to experience as many things as possible, learn as much as I can, and enjoy it all. This meaning all leads to happiness, so I guess you can say that’s my meaning for life, and that’s my reason for exisitng, because its all so great..

We sometimes get the glimpse of pure happiness but those moments are so rare and so intense that we only recognise them too late. Each of us understands this feeling in a different way…I, for instance, see it as the one that can make you ...
