Living life only to “find meaning” is unfair to life itself. Life is not a puzzle to solve. It’s too vast to fully understand in one lifetime. We are a tiny part of the cosmos. Our lifespan is less than a blink in the universe’s grand design. So, how should we look at purpose?
The Trap of a Manufactured Purpose
Many people spend their lives chasing a purpose shaped by family, education, or society. Schools and relationships often define what’s “meaningful” for us. This creates a false purpose, one that does not add real value or creativity to life.
When humans moved from hunting and gathering to farming, life changed. Agriculture led to settlements, rulers, and laws. Over thousands of years, rules and roles became hardwired into our thinking.
Today, purpose feels like a checklist, fixed roles at fixed ages. From childhood, education binds us to these expectations. Society gives us comfort and safety, but is this the real purpose of life?
We now value thoughts and emotions over life itself. Our minds are caged by trivial worries in exchange for identity and security.
Breaking Free from the Loop
Can we step out of this loop? Yes. It starts with a shift in mindset. Loosen the rigid structures in your mind. When you do, you create space to think freely and live in balance with society. Without being trapped by it.
Your thoughts and actions can help you understand life’s deeper design. They can bring peace and fulfillment. Value beyond what society prescribes. When the mind is free from clutter, harmony follows.
A Thought in Verse
Busy is the world so much,
we hardly think of life as such.
Tiny worries crowd the mind,
“Our Purpose” becomes hard to find.
We cry for freedom, east to west,
but have we freed our minds at best?
Look back to when we first grew wise,
does purpose seem farther than the skies?
It’s time to choose what we allow,
guide our thoughts to here and now.
Peace is what we truly need,
focus your mind, let the heart lead.
Try This Today
Free yourself from your current psychological structure. Ask: How free is my mind? What can I change to live with better balance, both inside and around me?
Don’t lose yourself chasing a purpose.
Life is not a mission. It’s a gift. Live it fully.
