"These tasks, and therefore the meaning of life, differ from man to man, and from moment to moment. Thus it is impossible to define the meaning of life in a general way. Questions about the meaning of life can never be answered by sweeping statements. "Life" does not mean something vague, but something very real and concrete, just as life's tasks are also very real and conrete. They form man's destiny, which is different and unique for each individual. No man and no destiny can be compared with any other man or any other destiny. No situation repeats itself, and each situations calls for a different response. Sometimes the situation in which a man finds himself may require him to shape his own fate by action. At other times it is more advatageous for him to make use of an opportunity for contemplation and to realize assets in this way. Sometimes man may be required simply to accept fate, to bear his cross. Every situation is distinguished by its uniqueness, and there is always only one right answer to the problem posed by the situation at hand."

that's from a BOOK i was READIng last night.

ps I might disagree with that last statement a bit, for there's certainly ambigous answers to some problems, or even just problems that can have more than one solution. Some answers might be better than other answers, though, so there could be a degree of rightness ;o
