I am one who has sought my purpose and asked myself why I am here. There has to be a reason. I'm probably confusing meaning and purpose here, but I recently heard Sadhguru say there is no purpose-stop imagining that there is. Life is a lot simpler if we stop seeking and start enjoying. Maybe meaning is something we've manufactured as well.
I’m pretty much settled on the idea that the only meaning that exists is the meaning we make. And as much as I’d like to stop seeking and just enjoy life, I’m a bit of a bodhisattva. As long as suffering exists I will be suffering and making meaning is the best coping skill I have found.
