That tittle is a paradox and so is everything the phrase could ever stand for. Everything has something to increase or decrease it.Many in the past have tied yin and yang for this approach or a magnet. Maybe the relationship between water and fire. Or the relationship between light and dark, except the darkness cannot do to the light what the light does to the darkness. Anything not light is not light so then everything is a shadow of what could be, because it isn't darkness either. There is no shade between light and dark only a shadow that musters up something like ether to portray an image. Since the spectrum is only two making a blend it becomes a series of that new shade.
There is no meaning but life is far from meaningless, like the student decorates the locker. Or like the prisoner hangs up pictures and a calendar. Like the clothes do not make the man, we give life meaning and life dose not give meaning to us. If I were to carry people around in a cycle rickshaw without the bike I could still have a life full of rest. If my neighbor wanted to go hiking and was afraid of heights, he just gave life new meaning. He could have a resume of over coming fears and was living the life of a realtor because to him it was safe. Now his life is defined by that list of overcoming, but he think it he is successful because he has secured himself and done what he knows to do. But the resume is intangible so then the meaning you give life is not known until the life has ended. And the tangible things that the life left behind is the life force still lingering around being present in more than one dimension at a time. If you contributed to the world and could do it from beyond the grave what would it be? That is a paradox because you eat for one and drink for one then if you become pregnant then it is still much more different than doing something for the rest of humanity. So then if you are born alone, die alone, and when you do the things that sustain life it is for you own, why do we need to contribute? Maybe that is not the natural order of things, but everything in the wilderness makes it a better place. The trees make homes from the roots to the branches but when are burned down make good soil. Animals eat each other, but if that was not the case there would be no animals. I wouldn't take this life too seriously, marijuana is about to be legal and everything has a polar opposite. So if everything is defeated or promoted in a way what is the point of it being anything if it is manipulated so easy? Just because it can be, and since there are only two options then making choices stem from one decision that made all the rest.
For example green food is good for you, you haft to eat everyday and then you will have made up you mind in this. When you are presented with what is the food you want to eat that observation you made about green food with play a role in diet. When you are sick, it might play a role in how you treat yourself. When you think or talk ,that one truth will play a role should something adjacent to that come up on the conversation. So then you can make things happen in the same way the seed of life becomes the flower of life that becomes the circle of life. You can make your own life but not by still living in someone else's. So then when it comes to what is correct with the universe or nature or life there is not really anything for you to obey. So you set your intentions and live with intentions and you become the proof of this situation. And then someone else might blog about it in another perspective to help us better understand our own ways.
