Analysis and Insight

4. I assess how meaningful my life is emotionally and mentally. People I love such as my friends and family are emotional because they will most likely always be there and things such as fashion are somewhere in there because I have always loved it and I plan to go into that line of work when I'm in college so that's really important to me. Mentally, things such as sports events and concerts because I could live without them but I just enjoy doing it, so things I love and things I like are included in this and that helped me to assess what is meaningful in my life.

5. No, I don't really think there is a pattern to what is meaningful or meaningless in my life. But I did organize my video in a way that somewhat showed what parts of my life were more meaningful. For instance, my friends and family came first because they are the most important things to me and then the concert and sports events pictures along with pictures of my Sidekick and Ipod came in the middle because they were somewhat important and then fashion came last because that was another really meaningful thing in my life.

6. I think that my video is a fairly accurate description of my life. There were some things I didn't include such as me just sitting there bored, which is meaningless but overall it was accurate. I don't really think it makes me seem more interesting or exciting. I'm just showing what my life is like.

7. I don't really think that my life would seem meaningful from an outside perspective, except for the friends and family part. It was done from an inside perspective because I'm just showing how I'm like and what is meaningful to me in my opinion. I think aspects such as the fashion might not be meaningful to a lot of people but it is very meaningful to me. This goes along with the idea that everybody's definition of meaningful and things they find to be important really varies between people.

8. As of right now, I don't really have any questions on living a meaningful life.

hi juliette,

Thank you for the comment.

I was not able to view your video, but I did read your analysis and I have a question for you: in numbers 4 & 7 you mentioned that fashion is meaningful/important to you or to your life, but Why is fashion meaningful/important to you?
