I agree with you. However, the intensity of the meaning of such "everything" depends on how you perceive it and make the most of it. Some just goes on the surface but others are embedded within which leave the deepest impression..The totality of the shallow and the deep is what makes life meaningful.

True, Nini. They are interrelated. We cannot divorce one from the other. It's part of the unity of life. From the perspective of wholeness, no part is separated from the whole. And this wholeness produces life's meaning.
