&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Ever wanted to know the meaning of life?&amp;nbsp; I invite you to learn, think and investigate.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; The meaning of life is a question that does have an answer.&amp;nbsp; It doesn't have to be a mystery.&amp;nbsp; Start your search.&amp;nbsp; Find your answer.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; I'm no one special.&amp;nbsp; I don't have an advanced degree in philosophy or anything like that.&amp;nbsp; But, like you, I'm willing to spend time thinking about, and pondering, those things that matter -those things that are important.&amp;nbsp;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; One of the things that makes humans special from any other species is our advanced capacity to think complex thoughts.&amp;nbsp; Birds fly, fish swim, dogs have a powerful sense of smell.&amp;nbsp; So why not explore and exercise your God-given ability to think?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; Meditation has become a less popular past time.&amp;nbsp; Sure, there's been an increase in certain types of yoga, stretching, and class-oriented meditation, but what about the good ole days when people actually spent time thinking about problems and their potential solutions?&amp;nbsp; A lot of people only think when they have to.&amp;nbsp; And even then, they may tend to dread it.&amp;nbsp; But think of how many problems you may have been able to avoid in your life if you had just taken a moment to stop and think things through?&amp;nbsp; This is one of the key advantages of thinking.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; You're never too old to learn.&amp;nbsp; My uncle once told me, "All knowledge is good knowledge."&amp;nbsp; For the most part, this is a true statement.&amp;nbsp; There aren't many skills that a person is made more defective by embracing.&amp;nbsp; Obviously there are some paths that will get you into trouble, but this is one of the benefits of thinking.&amp;nbsp; Deep thought allows you the chance to recognize good paths versus bad.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; A wise man once said, "Be careful what you think, your life is shaped by your thoughts."&amp;nbsp; Don't be a random leaf blowing in the wind.&amp;nbsp; Learn from your past and influence your future.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.bibles.com/products/ABS_NEW/104890.aspx" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left;
