Answer 5

In the abstract-sense of the terms, I devote my own life to love and general-happiness.

By 'love' and 'happiness', then, I do not just mean loving people, and making my self and others happy, I mean both that and 'love' - where I live for something that will long out last my self - and 'happiness' - something that will also long out last my self. In this sense, I think of my contributions as having a potentially indefinite effect on others, as 'love' and 'happiness' are not perishable items, nor are they objects at all. I'm not to sure what they are, exactly, surely they are concepts, but they are also, in addition, something over-and-above a mere conceptual notion.

Knowing - or having good evidence for the belief that something so grand, or rather, so long-term can effect others in such powerfully good ways is what really makes me happy...And that is what I devote my life to [other than academic philosophy of course, which is my career option {oddly enough} and love in life (as well)).

Any way, take care!
