The Tweet of Life

Last week, The Toronto Star hosted a contest open to everyone in an attempt to find the meaning of life. And of course, there is a catch: finish the following sentence: "the meaning of life is..." oh, and do it in less than 140 characters. The winners were published over the course of this week, and here are my favorites:

In 1,000 years will anyone care? Actions matter, but remember this question as you swell with pride or die of embarrassment.

The meaning of life is not to live it in a way that can be compressed into 140 characters or less

The meaning of life is to achieve a state of mind in which you no longer wonder about the meaning of life.

The meaning of life is to pursue the meaning of life through learning, teaching, searching, losing, success and failure.
