Our Meaning

It seems to appear that every individual holds their own meanng here in the world. People rarely care for the meaning of others as well, unless it holds a relation to one's own. As such, individual meaning has no value whatsoever, other than the purpose of fullfilling the goals and perceptions set forth by oneself. However, this meaning may be influenced by those surrounding the person in question, along with events or outcomes.

As human beings, we often add a perception of value to our inherently valueless meaning, citing goals and achievements that define us for who we are or want to be. For some, this may be fame and wealth, while for others it may be personal satisfaction through helping others around them and knowing that their presence was necessary to sustain the given accomplishment.
