ROXANNE

It’s the simple acts of brushing ones hair, lining ones lips, dressing ones eyes, which makes me understand the futile nature of one’s lives.

Does your life have meaning? To find out, rate the items below on a scale of 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree), then add up your score. a) I rarely go wrong when I follow my instincts b) I usually trust my hunches c) I can usually tell whether or not somebody is right d) My first impressions of people are usually pretty accurate e) It’s important to trust your feelings when making important decisions If you scored 20 or more, then congratulations: your life has meaning. Of course things aren’t quite that simple. But a recent study conducted at the University of Missouri found that people who gave higher scores on a short faith-in-intuition questionnaire (similar to the one above) were also more likely to strongly agree with statements such as: “My life has a clear sense of purpose .”
