How can I bring forth the gifts and talents that are hidden in me and others? What do I truly love and value about life? What are the environments and rhythms that bring out the best in me?

Meaning is not something you stumble across, like the answer to a riddle or the prize in a treasure hunt. Meaning is something you build into your life. You build it out of your own past, out of your affections and loyalties, out of the experience of humankind as it is passed on to you, out of your own talent and people you love, out of the values for which you are willing to sacrifice. You are the only one who can put it together into that unique pattern that will be your life. Let it be a life that has dignity and meaning for you. If it does, then the particular balance of success or failure is of no account.

—John Gardner
