When we are young, we think about the meaning of life. At that time, we thought that people alive, should achieve a great career, to get their own fame and wealth, extraordinary achievements.
By the time we reach middle age, the ideas in our heads change. We will feel that people live, perhaps just to "survive", what is there to pursue?
Generally speaking, many people will fall into confusion and even "deny" the meaning of their life. Because of the hardships of life, people feel that life is hopeless.
Look at the young and middle-aged people on the subway, come in a hurry, go in a hurry, the eyes are numb, repeat the same life every day, until the day of the old.
Look at the city running around the working people, a lifetime of hard work, to the end also earn less than a few money, old people also suffer from a body pain. This, is not their biggest helplessness?
Perhaps, only in the old age, will truly see through the truth of the world. Because young is irritable, middle age is sad, only the old age is completely open.
You will eventually understand that ordinary people live for only one purpose.

The 75-year-old lamented that the value of life is actually only one.
The town's uncle Jiang, 75 years old this year, is in good health, no serious illness, only a few minor problems. His family, not rich, not poor, all of his children were married, and even had great-grandchildren.
When others see him, they will say, "You are a very happy old man. You have a son, a daughter, several grandchildren, and a husband and wife who are in good health.
When Uncle Jiang heard this, he smiled and said, "God has blessed me to live to be 75 years old. Every day you wake up, live one more day, is actually earned! For the rest of my life, I have no regrets."
As far as Uncle Jiang was concerned, having lived to be 75 years old and having children and grandchildren, his life was like this.
Once, the son and daughter heard the father cough more than, said to him: "Dad, you cough so much, it is better to go to the hospital to see a doctor, we pay, you don't have to worry."
To the filial son and daughter, Jiang said only this: "I am also old, small pain and illness is normal, do not want to go to the hospital. If I do come to that day, it will be good. At least my mission will be completed and I will have no regrets in life."
The children were shocked and asked, "Dad, why would you say such a thing?"
As a father, he said with emotion: "I sent the old parents away, you guys have grown up, know how to take care of themselves, I am an old man, have lived to 75 years old, also enough, why do you worry so much?"

Older people like Jiang's generation have only one goal: to send their parents away and raise their children. This is the meaning they "set" for themselves.
Many people are struggling to find out what the meaning of life is. But they forget that they are not individuals belonging to themselves, but a complex body belonging to the family.
Like we're parents, we're supposed to raise our kids. For example, as children, we should provide for our parents until they are old. When one day, we have completed these two things, in fact, our life, will be complete.
In the past, we didn't understand that we had to "achieve" what would be complete. Later we realized that the cause of what, are fleeting clouds and smoke, their performance of the "link between the past and the next" responsibility, is the right way.
Bearing on, to send parents away; Next, to raise children to grow up. Family is passed down from generation to generation, which is the fate that we, as "natural creatures", cannot get rid of.
The meaning of human beings, after all, is the meaning of "natural life". What is the meaning of natural life? That is, a generation completes a generation's "mission".
Have the ability, then we go to complete the mission of benefiting society; As human beings, let us fulfill our mission as parents, or as children. This is the inevitable choice of countless people.

In fact, many people don't agree with the idea of "send away parents, raise children and have no regrets in life". They think that if they don't live for themselves, what is the meaning of their life?
In fact, even if we do not marry sterile, also just in the process of life, at most a little freedom, and can have what significance? Once you get married and have children, you are repeating your daily routine and fulfilling your responsibilities.
The "repetitive" life seems meaningless, but in fact, it tells us that in this short and boring life process, we have no choice but to do our best to make our family live a better life.
Bitter, that is inevitable. Just think, there are so many people in the world, and there are so few resources, that everyone has to suffer, isn't it normal?
People, or do not obsess too much about "bitter". Because everyone's result, are just leave, are just an empty, what is it?
The only thing we can do is to do our duty when we are alive, cherish every day of our lives, and let our children and parents live as happy as possible. That's enough.
Meaning, not absolute, is always relative. That's all.
