What is Meaning?

Meaning is a very broad idea, hard to narrow down. I believe there are different types of meaning, depending on the situation it's in. But to me, meaning is a form of expression. One expresses meaning through feelings, thoughts, or other creative views. Its significance is to answer undiscovered questions or concerns within a person.

I convey meaning through this perspective because of what I’ve experienced and the person that I am. When I express meaning it’s done through, mostly, artistic and written ways; because it is the way I find those answers and discover new things and opinions. It’s how I learn. And this is why I interpret meaning in this way.

However, I cannot speak as a whole for other people, and what their definition of meaning consists of. Every individual is different. Experiences and accounts, the atmosphere, and surroundings of a person all play a role of influence in ones life, shaping their outlook on what “meaning” is, and how it can be conveyed. Ultimately, to me personally meaning expresses views, thoughts, and the insights of people. It can be conveyed through different forms, but I choose to express through artistic means. Meaning is something we as individuals understand, and choose to search for.
