The meaning of life is not something that can be handed to you; it is something you must create for yourself. It is found in the choices you make, the values you uphold, and the way you treat others. Purpose is not discovered, it is constructed by living authentically and with intention 🧭.

Death is not the opposite of life but a part of it. To fear death is to fear life itself, for it is in the knowledge of our mortality that we find the motivation to live fully and authentically. Life gains meaning because it is finite, and death is its natural conclusion ☠️.
