I came across and an insightful article and it mentioned that there are only 4 questions that one needs to seek out the answers in life.

  1. Origin – Where do we come from?

  2. Meaning – Why are we here?

  3. Morality – What’s right and what’s wrong?

  4. Destiny – Where are we going?

Do we need to know the answers to all 4 questions before one can understand the true meaning or purpose of life?

Or would these questions only be answered(applicable) during different phases or seasons of life?

Here are my thoughts on these 4 questions

The question of origin helps me to understand my beginning and that has a correlation to my destiny. And it would be the foundation of my identity

What does it mean to live would set the focus of my direction in my life? Just like the compass which aligns the constant direction in the midst of this ever-changing society.

How do I define what is right and wrong in this society? It's been really challenging in this era as what was perceived as acceptable now, was seen as a big No No in the past. What has changed?

Lastly, the final destination of one's life... where will be going?

Look forward to your thoughts and insights on these.
