I believe that the meaning of life is different for every person, and it is constantly changing and evolving. I believe that the meaning of life is not necessarily a broad definition or a generalization that we live with for a lifetime.

Instead, it is what is meaningful to each person at a given moment in time. A young career woman in her early 20s may believe that the meaning of life rests in the feeling of accomplishment and advancement in her job. If she chooses to have children, the meaning of life may shift to love of family and being the best mother she can be.

For me personally, if I had to draw a broad definition, I have always felt that the meaning of life is using the talents I was born with not to simply exist but to move forward in life and create a positive impact on people and my local and greater community as a bi-product of using my talents and gifts.
