What does it mean to find meaning? Finding meaning is sifting through thoughts and making sense of what is true...that is making sense of what IS...
Thoughts are JUDGEMENTS and OPINIONS that can sometimes make us lose our sense of Self. We need to free ourselves from thoughts...free ourselves from the 'noise' of the everyday...we need to find time to just....BE...
From this...we will eventually find meaning...even when things seem so bleak and confusing...
I understand this as listening to and following one's intuition. When we trust our own guidance then the voices and confusion around us tends to fade, the fears and anxieties of what other people think about us starts to dissolve, and our own meaning becomes clearer. You are right, one needs a break from the hectic pace of city life to listen to one self. I find a walk around a beautiful lake works well!!
ReplyDeleteI agree. A walk around a beautiful lake does work well! It is nice to hear the soft whisper of the wind...the rustling of the trees...the rushing of the river...including...the silence of what calm brings....each providing only one meaning...internal clarity...
