What life is about
At one point or another, probably everyone has come to think about the meaning of life – what we are here for, what our mission is, and most importantly, what makes a good life.
Our culture and surroundings help shape how we look at things in life and what we value. That’s why concepts such as success can be interpreted in a lot of different ways. To some, success means making a fortune while others just want to live a simple life with their loved ones around them. Regardless of these differences, the underlying value and ultimate destination in life is HAPPINESS. It’s pursuit of happiness that makes us do what we do.
“What is life about” is an inspirational video from the works of Fearless Soul. What I really like about it is that it put things into the right perspective. Not only that, it also points out the right values, what to focus on and what really matters in life. Through introducing a number of guiding principles, such as kindness, life-long self-improvement, happiness, wealth, abundance and gratitude, it ultimately boils down to the ultimate purpose – “To be happy, to find happiness no matter what life throws at you.”

Your life is not defined by circumstances,
your life is not defined by what does or does not happen to you.
It is defined by how you react to what happens to you.
How you choose to react to the circumstances and events that arrive in your life.
It’s helpful to remember challenges are just tests.
Hard times are test and character builders.
Never lose your spirit, because it is in our greatest challenges that our greatest strength is formed.
That is when our character shines, right after the storm.
What’s really important is who you become through all of life’s challenges.
What you make and accumulate will never be a match for who you are and how much happiness you bring to this world.
Don’t ever forget that.
You are a miracle. This world is a blessing.
