It may have been when I as 42 years old. . . . did I begin to feel life change!!!
: Up to this point in my life: Everything had went my way and thought nothing should go against me. I had a lazy outlook on life and was the happy go lucky type.
With nothing ever phrasing me I could not understand the helpless feeling or why anybody had to perish with cancer. The why me … why anybody syndrome had hit me square between the eyes.
We are eternal beings who seek to know ourselves through our life experience. This leaves plenty of room for individual differences, but tries to capture the common thread. It’s not enough for us to only have the mental concept of what we wish to be. We have to live it every day of our lives, feel all the feelings that go along with it, experience all the various aspects of the person that we are and are becoming. The person we reflect is our eternal being, with each day a challenges of physical existence. We add to the richness of our souls, and to the cosmic consciousness, with every living moment.
To know our true selves through our living experiences is also to find the transcendent values within the moments of life – the love, the beauty, the truth, the glimpses of the divinity in the world. This is when we feel the most satisfying sense of meaning. However, even ordinary everyday experiences are still inherently meaningful as contributions to the ever-expanding multiverse.
Another aspect of meaning in life is learning, not just intellectual development, but all kinds of learning, especially wisdom, learning that represents our souls growth through the purpose of our life. Some of the most difficult experiences lead to the most significant advances in wisdom. Wisdom certainly includes moral and ethical development, learning to use free will appropriately.
However, it also includes developing compassion and emotional intelligence, the ability to form close relationships, demonstrate leadership, also have appropriate interpersonal boundaries and self-care, and generally to express more of the true divine self while we are still in the physical world. It seems that the physical world reflects back to us what we have put into it. Who we become is a result of how we have lived. Thereby over time, we may be reshaping our lives and collectively, our societies and our planetary environment, in ways that show us what we are becoming.
Many a genius has tried to unravel
The answer does actually have a deep meaning.
Let’s see.
The atomic number of Molybdenum is 42, as mentioned by Elliot Cooper.
Coincidence? I think not, because molybdenum is a very important element for humans and plants in minute quantities for proper growth.
The answer to life is: The best age to be is 42 just might be the bench mark in time when you start to realize; how wonderful it is being a walking talking free human on a beautiful planet. We begin not only to seeing the scenery but to feel our surroundings. The universe is condensed into a form that can appreciate and we start to understand why we are here.
42 unknown maybe a genius has tried to understand this theory. But through the power of the internet. Maybe truly “we” can begin to understand these changing of life events?
The answer to life, the universe and everything is 42, but the question is unknown.
Why in Japanese does 42= death

True Meaning of Life: In One Word “Onward.”
What is the true meaning of life?
All of my dreams manifested, however, I still found myself feeling empty. My soul was still not satisfied. I was hungry for something else.
I believe we are all brought here on earth for a reason. As a child, I remember praying to God and asking, “Please use me, use my life to make a difference and to help others.”
As a student at the University of San Francisco, on the long Muni bus rides to my internships, I’d ask myself, “What am I supposed to do with my life? Why am I here? Am I on the right track?” https://www.youtube.com/watch?
I felt like the Santiago, the little shepherd boy in Paulo Coehlo’s The Alchemist (one of my favorite books) who was searching for the treasure in the Egyptian pyramids that would bring him happiness. I too, was searching for that “treasure,” only to become disillusioned after I found it.
After many personal and professional twists and turns, I’ve finally found the joy that I was searching for through serving others via my nonprofit, Go Inspire Go (GIG). I believe we all have a power, some sort of talent that comes naturally to us. But it isn’t just about discovering this gift and keeping it to yourself.
As I’ve experienced, the true joy comes from giving it away. I am grateful to use my power of connecting with people and telling their stories to spark civic engagement and ultimately change.
Service is the meaning of life and what will ultimately bring you joy.
Our hope is that the stories on GIG’s YouTube channel will help you “Discover and use your power to help others.” Along this journey, I’ve met incredible people from all walks of life — the true treasures in my life. I’d love your feedback on how these stories made you feel and what you will do to make someone else’s life better.
