What is the meaning of life?

Why is everyone these days
busy doing something?
busy going somewhere?
hurrying to be or to find somebody?

Does this mean that
if they have something?
if they are or have somebody?
then they have meaning in life?

Why can’t anyone
try doing nothing?
try being nobody?
try going nowhere?

Does this mean that
they are nothing?
they are nobody?
there is no meaning to life?

Strange isn’t it that
we have to have something,
we have to be or have somebody,
before there is a meaning to life.

Next time try doing nothing
try being nobody
try going nowhere
and yet find a meaning to life!

(NB: That's it! Signs of a derange mind! :P)

I particularly like this poet very much.It makes one feel like a newborn that doesn't demand much but to have simplicity in life.

How simple it sounds, How difficult it is.
