About This Quote

The statement above is very powerful. The human mind is always adding meaning to the world around it. This is why people tend to react so strongly to situations. When something happens, our minds give it meaning.

If the world did not have meaning, it would be pointless for us to exist. We would all just float past each other in a meaningless universe without any purpose or direction. It’s because of our minds that we are able to find direction and purpose in life.
