The Secret To Life

The secret to life as we know it is the epitome of one's perception. The secret to life is as unique as one's fingerprints. The secret to life is subjective, and different people have different views on what it might be. There are an array of literature and articles on what some believe to be the magical key to life's secrets. Alan Burdick's report "The Secret Life of Secrets" highlighted the psychological tolls of keeping secrets, such as the president of the United States. The focus of this piece seeks to shed light on the perspectives of others concerning the secret to life.

Have you ever considered or pondered whether there are secrets to life? Just like browsing through the night sky, wondering about life beyond Earth. Questions like, are there better versions of ourselves in a parallel universe? Am I living my best life now through my purpose? Our beliefs about life, people, society, and culture, and of those who look different from us, those sentiments, perceptions, or stereotypes, do they encapsulate or underscore who we are at the core of humanity. The secret to life might have a different meaning to your brother, sister, spiritual leader, and the like. However distant or similar our understandings, we must allow space for others to express their viewpoint and thoughts. After all, we are each uniquely created.?

Likewise, some people believe that the secret to life is to find happiness, while others believe it is to find meaning and purpose. Some might say that life's mystery is cultivating positive relationships, while others might say it is achieving success in one's chosen field. What about those who do not believe in the big boom theory? There are some fellow brothers and sisters who bear up the notion that we, as home sapiens, were spawned from monkeys? The secret to life may be marred in the unsolvable quandary of our lack of self-identity.??

Another group who believes in God might approach the secret to life from different vantage points where God is the center of their universe; therefore, to them, the secret is serving God. Those same bible believing Christians unequivocally believe that the secret to life is making people's lives better while living selflessly. They also espouse the belief that one should rejoice in the little and big things.

In retrospect, if the secret to life is material gains and temporal crowns, one must surmise that life, as we know it, is meaningless. One might find the golden key to life's secret door while serving the less fortunate children, widowers, feeding people experiencing homelessness, and funding a scholarship program for orphan children. Whatever path one chooses to find the key to life's secret door, the magic happens when one helps others yet aspires not to be glorified. The entrance of being a servant leader must be opened to make an indelible difference in others' lives by allowing them in while expecting nothing in return.

Ultimately, the secret to life is a profoundly personal yet subjective concept that may change and evolve throughout one's lifetime. It is up to each individual to determine what life's secret is to them; while striving to find meaning, success, and fulfillment in their unique sphere.
