The question about the meaning of life does not arise in the search for the answer to the question, but on the way to there. 30 recommendations for a good wild life.
Why it can be worth traveling alone, getting your heart broken or making sacrifices.
traveling alone for more than 2 weeks Me - myself and I or you with you. You only have yourself and that's why you are the person you should trust the most. Go on vacation with you, get to know you, trust you, like you! Lie in bed for ages in the morning and stare at the ceiling, get lost in the jungle of the city, go to a crowded restaurant alone, splash around in the sea alone, visit an exhibition. Sit alone in a bar or celebrate Christmas or New Year's Eve alone. Do things that you are afraid of or don't want to do, meet strangers. All of this is needed to build a good relationship with yourself. And you can't start early enough. Because those who endure themselves also endure others in their selfhood.
don't complain for a month about nothing and no one... free of charge - or go to an ashram in India and spend money on it.
Go to a country you know absolutely nothing about. After all, anyone can do Spain and Costa Brava.
Become an expert Red wine - white wine - Bob Ross - or Bockwurst Study a topic until you know more about it than most people. The more absurd, the better. Guaranteed to be a topic of conversation in your clique or even in 40 years.
Drinking all night long with your siblings and if you don't have that, you can do it with your best friends.
set a goal that is not achievable President of the United States? A flight into space? Pretty unlikely. But even the unattainable can lead you to absurd places and situations. Maybe it will work after all? You never know.
Be honest with your parents Probably sometimes the hardest challenge, but if you think they're going to rip your head off, then it's usually half as bad or noting at all.
practice renunciation for a year Emoticons, sweets, stupid people diet - digital diet - whatever your abstinence looks like, just give it a try. What do you notice afterwards?
love yourself ... however...
Invest wisely in stories for life, even if they sometimes cost you a fortune.
To have your heart broken Nothing is worse. Crying, staying in bed for days, going crazy, not wanting to go on, refusing to eat, getting drunk, tearing up old photos and blocking them on all channels, then drunkenly calling your ex again at night. The whole program. Enriching.
Dancing through the night as long as possible. And the days afterwards too. The best club or DJ - who knows their craft - manages to take us out of everyday life and into a foreign world. The floor, the bass, the people, the ambience - vibrations send us on a different journey every time. At some point we no longer know whether we've been dancing for 10 minutes, 2 hours or 10 hours and oops it's 1:30 p.m. the next day - oops. You shouldn't have any important appointments this day or the next! This could go maybe wrong. A night at the club can be like a quick vacation or the best trip of your life. The entry stamp is your visa, and the first aid kit is available at the bar.
Study philosophy Structured and logical thinking and what holds the world together. Admittedly, you don't have to study philosophy directly to understand life. The path of your life is pure philosophy study - including tuition fees - Don't forget to ask God at the end whether you have passed the degree. Summa cum laude?!
write a letter to his younger self If you had mild puberty, there was something wrong with you. And because this time can be such a difficult chapter in your own life, you should simply write a letter to your younger self to heal your heart. Maybe you still have old diaries that might help you understand why you were the way you were back then. And became who you are.
Help your neighbors or say hello Also think about your fellow human beings, the world doesn't just revolve around you. Find out who lives next to you and who your neighbors are. Carry the shopping upstairs for the older person in your house, hold the door for them, or ask the family who just moved in if you can lend them a cordless screwdriver or if they have already settled in.
learn cooking Cooking is love, passion (sometimes not so much if you're in a hurry and quickly gobble up the cheese sandwich as you walk past. Don't just shove in the kebab or the frozen pizza, just stop and look at what you're doing every day What you do to your body and how you treat yourself - that's self-care. You are what you are and consciously enjoying yourself instead of swallowing everything up can be the beginning of a better self.
read an author's complete works Attempt.
get to know the world religions better In a globalized world, everyone should know the 5 world religions, even those who are not believers.
Find the really right place for you We don't always live in the place that suits us. It's not just the external conditions that have an influence. If you can hardly stand the roar of the tram noise every morning from your living room window and the hustle and bustle of the big city and long for peace, nature and clarity, you might be better off in a more rural area. If you love the change of seasons, you should stay in Europe. If you find yourself in a gloomy mood on gray autumn days, you should emigrate to sunnier climes. If you know where you want to live in the long term, you can plan accordingly - with the prospect of actually living and arriving in the ideal place at some point.
tell your grandparents you love them Some things are difficult to say, why? Or we take things too much for granted because they have always been there and we think it will continue like that. Not thinking about tomorrow, but living in the now is the ultimate, but especially with grandparents, tomorrow may be too late. In the end, enjoying every second with them and telling them often how much you love them and how valuable or meaningful they are to you, in the end it is incredibly meaningful for you!
Leaving some people behind Life is change and the friends from your youth will not always remain friends for life. That sounds brutal, but it is true and necessary. Sometimes it's only with foresight that you realize who is draining your energy, who can't be happy for you when you've achieved something beautiful, or who has a long-term negative influence on your life. You should leave them behind. Just let it expire or say goodbye in a friendly manner with a thank you for your time together. Do a good housecleaning, look around and be honest with yourself. Even if it is painfu and these experiences are heartbreakers, precisely because these friends sometimes accompanied you on your path for many years. Know that everyone is connected to everyone else and therefore growth and enrichment for life. Some people are supposed to teach you and learn something. Things change and you, that´s normal.
To be present at the birth of someone
accompany a dying person Certainly and admittedly difficult. But the good feeling of being at peace with yourself. # Peaceofmind
Forgive a person and therefore yourself Admittedly, arguing has to be learned, but apologizing is a bit more difficult. This doesn't come across easily and can take years. What germinates over the years is unhealthy and keeps you trapped in the past. Forgiving someone for what they did to you is probably the hardest task of your life. You can't force it, but getting past this point lets you move forward.
have children For the vast majority of people, starting their own family is part of their life planning like the lid on the pot, at least in the theoretical imagination.
Or not ... Children are not a guarantee of happiness or a kit to get a troubled relationship back on track. This “the clock is ticking, don’t you want to finally think about it..” is something you should definitely get rid of. Live according to your own idea of happiness. Children are always a valuable enrichment and growth for oneself, but one should definitely be aware of the consequences beforehand. Raising a child not only means lifelong responsibility and loving care, but also raising them to be healthy, responsible and valuable human beings. Neither is an adult woman without children a moral and social failure, nor does a life without children mean a less fulfilling life. Everyone decides for themselves.
get lost in a strange city somewhere in the farthest corner of the world You are on the way on time to catch your $120 bus that will take you to your starting point, 500km away. You don't take the taxi because you already walked that way yesterday. At least you know the direction. Nearly. Time is running out, panic. Fear sweat. You definitely have to catch this bus. Are you giving in to fear? By the time you figure out that you've been walking in circles the whole time, the bus will be long gone. Annoying. Meter-high skyscrapers, you turn in circles, people rush past you. Full concentration. You use all your senses, book a new ticket because you have to go back and you muddle your way through the big city jungle because the bus has a different departure point this time. You may get lost again, but you made it. You breathe a sigh of relief as you sit on the bus, sweaty and with your heart pounding. You have just grown...in yourself, beyond yourself... You accidentally meet people you wouldn't have met before. You start a conversation and maybe become friends (for life). Over time, you change their life for the better. You can be really happy for them because they were in a situation in life where you need a friend the most. Wow - right?
get a pet that creates a sense of responsibility. But be aware that it is a living being that also depends on your care and love, and this is not a trivial thing that can be given back if you don't like it. The best side effect: Not only you do take care of the animal, the animal also takes care of you, because who can be angry with sugar-sweet button eyes and this little furry friend is an asset for life. Pure life energy..
Free yourself from rigid role models Trying to understand feminism or women can help you in life in general. But also fairness and openness towards diversity and other cultures and genders, helps immensely to develop and unfold individually, brings people together and shows respect and opens up (growth) opportunities for yourself and others. You can only win.
Run away. Does not matter where. Just do it and don't (constantly) ask or question the meaning
