What does “having it all” mean to you? Is it attainable?

View all responses

Unless you are the universe itself, “all” is unattainable.
Humans do not possess the capacity to “have it all”, for we are miniscule in comparison to the vast expanse of the cosmos.

I believe that the universe is concious and does infact “have it all” in terms of containing all matter and energy that exists within itself.
However, even then I don’t think it would “have it all” because I am in belief that there is much more out there beyond our universe that we cannot even fathom with our tiny, fragile minds.

Bringing it back to our local reality in terms of being a human, “having it all” could refer to having all the material items, money, and wellbeing that one would desire. So in that case, no. I probably am destined to never “have it all” – and that is okay. For once you “have it all”, what is left over to attain? Nothing. Without any need for drive and hard work to get what you desire, life is as pointless as a chocolate kettle.
