The redhead has some questions.

Recently I heard a few questions posed.
Interesting questions.
The first was: "What motivates you more, love or fear?"
      Now at first look, I would say love. Love for my family, for myself, for my world, and so I want to make a better life for all of them. Love is my motivation for my life in general. To meet people I can love and people who can love me. But isn't it the same?
      I love my family and because of that I fear that something might go wrong. I fear a bad life for them, for my friends, for me, because I love them. If someone put a gun to my friend's head, what motivates me to hurt that someone, to want him far away? It is love for my friend, it is fear that he would be gone.
      Love motivating the betterment you want for that love, the safety, the strength of the connection. Fear motivating the destruction of that which causes the fear or destroy the trgger inside yourself that makes you fear it. They are two entirely seperate entities that follow one another like dominos, if you have love, you have fear, if you have fear, you have love, and so I am motivated by both, as they come, often, together.

second: "What is the meaning of life?"
       To me, the meaning of life is to leave things behind that matter. To change things somehow, maybe just in a small way that changes life for someone else. But I feel that there is no general meaning of life, because meaning of life is relative to the life it is talking about, in other words, everyone has there own meaning of life that depends on what they believe it is. I might have a different one than you, you from him, him from her, and so on. We are every changing beings living in an ever changing environment and so through these conclusions the meaning of life is different like the people and places and takes on transformation like they do over years or seconds. What is yours?
