When friends discover they have fundamentally different ideas about what makes life meaningful

My best friend and I have been talking about what we want to be remembered for and we keep realizing we have completely different ideas about what makes a life meaningful — she thinks it's all about the impact you have on others and I keep thinking about personal fulfillment and creativity — and it's making me question whether we actually share the values I thought we did.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two people who thought they shared core values are discovering their philosophical foundations about meaning and legacy are more different than they realized.

Worth thinking about

“Where Are You with What legacy means — a philosophical survey?”
