Both meaning and purpose are acts of self-transcendence. They are both about supplying a reason for being and action.*
AleXander McManus
To what can I compare this generation? They are like children sitting in the marketplaces and calling out to others: ‘We played the flute for you, and you did not dance; we sang a dirge, and you did not mourn.’**
Jesus of Nazerath
You are the problem and
you are the solution.
It’s okay for children
to want others to join their games.
As we advance in years
we discover it’s about serving others.^
We get over ourselves
and discover another “me.”
A transcendent “me”–
We each have one.
Meaning and purpose^^
will lead us there.

^^How might you write out your meaning and purpose? Where are they leading you?
