Hey, Arinze. I agree on Soul. The movie did a great job in attempting life's big questions.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. I enjoyed gaining clarity on the subject and absorbing your ideas.
You see, for individuals like me who have an amorphous or unpopular belief system, entertaining the idea of a purposeful life is intense mental gymnastics.
Although cognitive dissonance manifests now and then, I made a conscious decision to start living. I understood that although life seemed senseless, it is worthy of being appreciated because we have a choice to.
In appreciating life, you have to realize 'now.' I have to recognise this moment-- your work and the reflection I had writing this.
On this note, I believe I live through the experiences I create for those around me. This is by being intentional in showing love, creating opportunities for these experiences and leaving indications I made a difference.
In essence, I've come to realize that love and impact can't be separated from purpose. By deduction, the philosophy of Ubuntu proposes I exist because you exist. When we show love, we give meaning and purpose to someone. We give them a reason to smile. To live. When we change one person's life or mentality, they go on to change more.

What can be greater than living through others?
