Continued from: What is life? [1]
As part of it, we respect the Nature. The nature of Nature is "giving" by getting what it gets from surrounding. It gives to everyone without any discrimination. It gives equal and of same quality and try to fulfill others' needs. What you get is what you want, not more and not less. So, I look at myself as part of this Nature and try making my attitude and nature according to Nature.
Nature shows me the way I should live, means giving. Give to your surrounding what you can (should) give. I think of myself as a tree, which gives shadow, a safe place for nest, beautiful holes for squirrels to make its home, a power to sand to hold itself, strong but flexible stems for animals to play and joy, beautiful and soft leaves to become food for insects, sweet and sour fruits, fresh air to breathe. All this for cost of nothing. It just gives and tries to stand with its duties no matter what are the circumstances, whether it is a drought, flood or autumn. It just gives, whatever it can, to all.
I see life as a part of nature, part of this cycle, nothing else. I have to reach nowhere, I have to achieve nothing, there is nothing like a 'Aim', it is all about giving. I try to live like that. I just do my duties. I just do what should I do as part of this cycle. This is the meaning of life.
