The meaning of life is as if a king has sent you to a country to carry out one special, specific task. You go to the country and you perform a hundred other tasks, but if you have not performed the task you were sent for, it is as if you have done nothing at all. So man has come into the world for a particular task, and that is his purpose. If he does not perform it, he will have done nothing.
- Jalal al-Din ar-Rumi (13th centuory mystical poet), Table Talk
Read from "It is a meaningful life, it just take practice." by BoLozoff.
