Everybody wants to know why we're here, so we search for that answer. We want to know who we belong to so we search for those people and all the while God is whispering, 'Here I am.

About This Quote

This quote from F. Scott Fitzgerald is a reminder that we are all searching for meaning in our lives. In this quote, Fitzgerald urges us to search for God and to follow his lead on who we belong to. I’m not sure what he meant by “we” and “that answer,” but the idea that we are searching for meaning in our lives is a message that I believe everyone can relate to.
