Our Search for Meaning in Life

If you take a walk in the woods on a winter morning and see the sun sparkle and glimmer in the newly fallen snow, or if you sit one morning on the pier with the one you love and watch the glowing sun rise above the sea, you may suddenly think that there are far too few moments like these in your life. Some people experience several high points like these throughout life, when the earth somehow spins the right way around just for a brief moment. You cannot force these experiences to happen, but invite them by making an effort in your life and doing your utmost in every situation. In order to do so, you need to understand the importance of making the right decision in even the smallest of situations. Self-discipline and personal energy will give you control of your life. When you sincerely do your utmost to be in control of your life, you can catch a glimpse of a major obstacle to success: your inability to understand life, the world around you and yourself.
