Meaning: the most important question to ask ourselves.

The most important question to ask ourselves seems to have always been, and surely always will be: What is the meaning of life?

The answer to this question is the basis for the fulfilment of a human being. Phrased as "What is our purpose in the universe?", it might also be the most important question to define the right North Star for humanity.

Seneca said, "If one does not know to which port is sailing, no wind is favorable." And I would even add that if one is sailing to a place but doesn't know why, every gust of wind can disturb them.

Searching and finding meaning in life allow us to define who we are, why we are here, where we are going and what we want to bring to the world.

Yet, far too few people define it sufficiently. Many do not ask themselves these questions enough or blindly follow others and society's norms.

The first step to grow as a person and move towards happiness and fulfillment is to justify our existence by giving it meaning, in a deep and personal way. I would also say that it is the same for humanity.

It may take time and shake us up, but digging, asking questions and finding answers is definitely worth it.
