The meaning of life is to be happy. The working out of that idea, however, is like a road map of the entire United States of America. There are many ways to get where you want to be going. Many places from which to start; many twists and turns you can take to get “there.” Even ways you can back track or take side trips.
There is at least one method of getting “there” that cannot be left out of your journey. You are not alone on your road. First there are the road builders – those who have pioneered before you. Then there are the road-maintainers – those who labor to keep the road clear so you can move along it. A subset of road-maintainers are those who paint the lane-lines and put up the signs to give you directions (even when you won’t ask for directions).
Vehicle manufacturers came into play somewhere along the line of your journey. Tire makers, engine-makers, assemblers, painters (even if they are robots these days), inspectors, vehicle haulers, etc.
All these partner with you to get you where you are going. Even beyond these physical types, there are the spiritual types. All the saints and sinners who have passed this way before you, testing the road worthiness of the asphalt you drive over. They’ve been this way and pronounced the route good, bad or indifferent. Those sinners and saints who have tested the spiritual pathways to your own destination. These are ready and willing to gather you into the whole. “No man is an island.” (John Donne) Though you cannot see, nor even have been aware of it before this very moment, you are part of the Big Unit, the Universe. Inseparable for all others.
Simply, and in other words, you are never alone. You are part of a team. When you come to recognize and appreciate this team-concept, you’ll be better off. You stand on the shoulders of countless generations of humans. You are one of the foundation stones for those yet to be born.
So, when you are feeling cut off from all human contact because of crushing circumstances in your life, remember, you are part of a TEAM.
You
have not done something that no one else ever has. Your experiences have been repeated time and again by thousands if not millions of people. You are separated, physically, no more than 6 degrees from every other human being. Spiritually you are never and have never been separated from any other sentient being.
Know that the entire team is pulling for you, even if it seems right now that they are not. They are cheering you on because they are in the same game, the Game of Life. To know and practice the meaning of life, to be happy, is to realize you are part of The Universal, Cosmic, Everlasting, Inseparable, TEAM.
