Your life has its ups and downs,
times of clarity and confusion. Yet it
holds a rich meaning, one that you
unfold through living your purpose.
Your purpose motivates you to do
and be your best. You could describe
your life purpose as the life that you
were born to live.
Your life purpose consists of the
central motivating aims of your life
the reasons you get up in the morning.
Purpose can guide life decisions,
influence behavior, shape goals, offer
a sense of direction, and create
meaning. For some people, purpose is
connected to vocation meaningful,
satisfying work.
The actual meaning of life is to
fulfill your purpose in life and
accomplish your goals. What I
mean by this is, everyone has a
purpose, of why they are living.
None of us will be here if we all
didn't have a purpose.
Life meaning is gained when
you put yourself to activities
which accepts your finite
nature and limits , yet at the
same time does not hinder you
try to overcome or go beyond
these limits.

relation

DETERMINISM:
as changes in breathing, loss of bladder
and bowel control and
unconsciousness. ... They will do all they
can to make your relative or friend as
comfortable as possible during their
death.
Death is one of the possibilities
of the human person . The
Dasein is thrown into death due
to the facticity of the Dasein’s
existence thrown, because of
the awareness that human
persons are going to die.
Death is something that stands before us-
something impending. Death is a possibility –
of- Being which Dasein itself has to take over in
every case . With death , Dasein stands before
itself in its own most potentiality for Being. This
own most non-relational possibility is at the
same the uttermost one. As potentiality-for-
Being, the Dasein cannot outstrip the possibility
of death. Thus, death reveals itself as that
possibility which is one’s own most, which is
non-relational is not be oustripped.
