The purpose of life.
I'm reading an interesting book called "If The Buddha Got Stuck". It deals with attitudes and tools to use in getting yourself unstuck from situations and developing an unstuck mentality where you take care of yourself.
One statement that really smacked me between the eyes was about what is the purpose or meaning of life. The answer is: to live.
I have had all sorts of different beliefs and such but that one really got to me. I have been looking at my life as a noun. I am a ... enabler, codie, husband, father, grandfather and so on.
Life isn't a noun, it is a verb. It's not something I am, it's something I do. Such a slight little twist in perspective has had a major impact on how I am viewing my life.
