Living meaningfully....
What does that mean? How does one live meaningfully? Purposefully?
My first response was to approach this as having to "do something" to live meaningfully.
Today, though, as I was sitting on the couch feeling the soreness in my head and the tightness of my scalp, holding my daughter on my lap, and soaking in the comfort that she brought, I realized that part of living meaningfully is to recognize the meaning in the ordinary. I don't have to "do" anything particular, but I can recognize the extraordinary in the everyday.
We are human. There are times that we can't, we just can't.
I'm recovering from brain surgery. But I can still live meaningfully by just being aware of my life and the meaning that imbues every corner of it.
