The problem, often not discovered until late in life, is
that when you look for things in life like love, meaning, motivation, it
implies they are sitting behind a tree or under a rock. The most successful
people in life recognize, that in life they create their own love, they
manufacture their own meaning, they generate their own motivation.
For me, I am driven by two main philosophies, know more
today about the world than I knew yesterday. And lessen the suffering of
others. You'd be surprised how far that gets you.
