    I worked hard to get where I am. So I do what I need to do. I help those that need help. I eat what I want, not what i can afford.

    Simple, just by going to church regularly and listen to the teachings of how the world is becoming.

    This being the philosophy sector answers should surely reflect that don't

    you think?

    Like the "giving" (one trick pony)

    like the "interacting" (zaphod B)

    And the "fulfillment" (u_bin_called)

    also "helping" (kswck2)

    Etcetera

    It was quite a small fulfillment for mine to find that virtually no main

    characters here like "small"  "Morpheus" (I believe) "tizzoseddy"

    "P" and of course the others do seem to have wrongly learned

    that PHILOSOPHY (here and we should guess there..) is not

    really real in that there is No substantial defined area of that

    which day-by-day continues to learn new knowledge whilst old

    useless knowledge is highlighted and cast aside (so to speak).

    A developing and learning (Philosophy) Area so to speak.

    Ever since I was a very young guy who frequently frequented

    libraries and usually -but not always- ended up near the "philosophy

    section" who never knew WHAT i was looking for there -who never

    ever really knew HOW to find it there- knowledge became for me

    a lifelong strange thing which from my very first "get-go" turned

    into something RICHER, more productive by being much more

    INTERESTING too ; c.r.i.t.i.c.i.s.m. didn't just become my rational

    watchword of course - plenty of authors then and now do still

    "play around" with their critical thoughts and even their criticisms 

    of-a-life-of-knowledge (usually their own) and with that sore

    criticism of logic learned-from-the-past and also what they could

    see of the future so to speak.

    I too was concerned with practical & "practised criticism"... &I think

    if you look at my past here you should find just that. 

     

    But so called "pure criticism" does get boring-over-time not to

    mention it gets corrupted usually during that period with the 

    same old people (authors then and the same old books so to

    speak).

    Nevertheless it was fulfilling to me to early on come to understand

    that as far as ones "rational & CRITICAL thoughts" are concerned

    it is of the Utmost (fulfillment) importance that philosophy STUDY

    first must be like this -clear where and how the past should differ

    from the future*- and second clear how to then proceed in learning

    with that "critical yoke" so to speak, in Philosophy and then through

    out whatever sector/ sections of knowledge learning takes place.

    So... a lifelong commitment you should be able to see... and it didn't

    take a mathematical logician or two to realise that such a commitment

    comes with the proviso of "truth content" and a later of falsity

    (content).

     A small objective commitment that the future is always the search

    for the truth..

    especially, though not exclusively here in the Yahoo Philosophy sector.

    I find fulfillment in knowing and serving Jesus Christ, my Lord and Savior. 

    Source(s): The New Testament (recommended reading)

     By living it for real and doing things for real and interacting with real peiople in the flesh, not by using a computer, tablet or smart phone.

    By accepting the fulfillment life has to offer on its own terms rather than demand life fulfill me on mine...

    Some people find meaning in protest, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sk-qqmlXlzQ 

    some in humor https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j41bb5LdA5U

    some in Light https://www.mothermeera.com/

    Would suggest "Understanding Yourself" by Mark Prophet for enhancing personal awareness.

    Pleasure is a hook... anything that feels good can become addictive.

    Cravings constantly increasing while your level of satisfaction simultaneously decreases. A vortex is created... a void within your soul that cannot be satisfied. You'll try to fill it with all kinds of things... but that place can only be filled by one thing: one neccessary thing....

    The saddest thing that can ever happen to a person is to go to their grave never knowing why they were here.  Your purpose in life is much MUCH greater than your own personal happiness.  Because you did not make yourself you could never tell yourself why you were made.  Even the greatest philosophers that ever lived were only guessing. 

    To find out why you are here, and what your purpose is, you absolutely must go to your Maker and ask; on your knees. Humble thyself. Ask sincerely and you are guaranteed to get your answer.  You'll never know who you are until you know where you come from, why you were made, and Who it is that made you.
