Re: The Journey of a FIRST Graduate: Questions
Ken,

These are all questions I've pondered, read about, discussed with others, and researched. I'd say it's part of a human's natural evolution although you seem to be "ahead of the game" as usual.

For me, over time I've boiled all of that down to this question:
Is what I'm doing in life fulfilling and meaningful to others?

That's all of it for me these days. My wife and I move forward in life asking and reasking that question (in many different forms) as we chart a course for our individual lives and our life together with family. I still think about the other questions you pose, but they don't "occupy" me the way they used to. Knowledge is evolving and changes over time. In my opinion "truth" lies within the individual and is realized through that feeling of fulfillment. Kind of like the Nike commercial - Life is very brief. Just do it.
