As we have experiences, we generally give them all the meaning they have for us. Then those meanings contribute to the way in which we experience the world. Working the interface between the two, we toggle between ourselves and others, between the inner and outer.
Most of us prefer one or the other. Experience or meaning. One without the other is like the questionable sound of one hand clapping. When we put our hands together, we call it prayer. As we integrate experience and meaning, our lives may become prayer.
Are you an experience junkie, ever looking for that next experience? Or do you prefer to dig deeply into the meaning of things? Ki to Happiness applauds both meaning and experience.
