What I want for the people around me

From the Christian perspective, followers want people around them to follow God and reach heaven, but as a non-religious person, I believe it's important to answer that question as well because we often try to be selfless and help others, but we first need to define in what direction we want to help them towards.

It's easy to say "I just want my loved ones to be happy," but I believe there are more layers to unravel from that.

One of the most beautiful things in the world is someone finding their "thing" or meaning of life. The "thing" is the activity that makes someone whole or elevates their life in ways that other things cannot.

Unfortunately, due to societal and financial pressures, people rarely find their thing, causing them to have a very somber and melancholic life.

So, what I want for the people around me is for them to experience as much life as possible in order for them to maximize the potential for them to find their meaning in life or reason for living.
