I choose this video because the more I have researched this topic, the more I am beginning to realize that there isn’t an easy answer. There is no one way to see the meaning of life. Some people look at the meaning of life through religious eyes, while other people look at the meaning of life from a survivor’s point of view. There are people who feel they on earth to help other person out, which actually goes into a separate argument. It is an interesting video because it has those different races and ethnic backgrounds and I think that also has an effect on the way a person reviews the meaning of life, along with the way that they were raised. This video also goes into different locations across the United States. It doesn’t say whether the people have different education levels, or whether or not they have taken a philosophy class, but I would put a few of their comments in my final paper. There were some good ideas that were floated around and some ideas that I haven’t heard or read about yet.

I like the way the camera man tried to involve random people's philosophy in the meaning of life. I think that it is funny how much people really are stumped at the question and then decide it is ultimately to find inner peace and happiness.
That is a great video, it would be fun to do something like that on campus; go around and ask students what their personal meaning of life is. If you want to do something like that, I'm game! :) Your blog looks great all around. -Karla
What upppp Charles!! Yeah that video you got is very interesting because it's random people and random thoughts on their philosophical random meanings of life! And it's true, everything they say all leads to peace and happiness! Haha. Anyways, big ups my man, keep up the good work!
I agree with you but the people in the video really didn't know what to say. It's easy for us to know a good respone but thoese were just regular people. They really were just random people off the street, I don't know about asking people on campus they may think ur nuts. You could do one of the class for your project though.
