WHAT IS A MEANINGFUL LIFE?, WHY LIVE IT?

What If You Get Everything You Want, Just To Discover That You Sold All The Things You Need?
I Think Far Too Many People Live And Die Without Ever Living At All. The Word Living Is A Verb And Describes An Active Pursuit. Life Is A Given, Living Is A Choice. An Active Choice. A Rebellious Choice. A Choice Between Living And Merely Having Existed.
It Is The Natural Design, But Wild In Its Expression In A World Of People Who Have "Chosen" To Be "Civilized". In Such Settings The Natural Design Has Become The Alternative As The Human Animal Has Become A Machine, Working At The Service Of Other "Senior" Men, Whose Lives Find Meaning, In "Demeaning" Others. I Have Come That The African "Might Have Life, And Life It In Abundance - A True Expression Of Human Self Actualization, Living And Not Merely Existing".
Meaning Has Nothing To Do With National, Enterprise Or Social Acclaim. A Meaningful Life Is A Context To Life, Not A Record Of Life. A Meaningful Life Is A Life Lived In The Context Of Satisfaction, Accomplishment And Impact.
