Life is meant to be lived. It does not have to be tied to a specific purpose. Human beings place themselves in a very important position in the world. So human beings want to label themselves with a purpose of existence that distinguishes them from other beings. But fishes are just fishes, insects are just insects. And they just live. Until you hunt them or step on them. You know that the universe is vast. In the eyes of the different life forms that exist in the universe, human beings may be considered on the same level as fish or insects (I'm not implying that fishes or insects are less important than human beings, I'm just giving an example in general terms to make the point). So there is no ranking of the importance of things and life has no attainable goal. There is only the path you walk. That path is life itself. If you insist on answering the question what is the "meaning" of life. You can choose to answer in this way: The purpose of life is life.

The first time I watched the movie was 2000 and I was 13 years old. Even though I didn't fully understand the movie, something about the world the movie reflected hurt me. You couldn't talk about it with anyone or read it in a book, that sheer truth just hurt. I understood this more and more as I got older. I'm 35 now and I still don't know what I want. We have to live in certain patterns and we have to work hard to get out of it. No matter how hard you try, that meaning doesn't always apply to everyone, and you realize that there is no end to this struggle.

The struggle lies within ourselves because every single one of us is sick with an uncurable disease. It festers and becomes worse as life goes on. We go through life not even knowing the damage it is causing us. Because of the distractions. They hold us over so we don’t realize the true nature of life. Of how to make it all better. It destroys us. And eventually, it kills us. It’s our actions. Our thoughts. Our day in and day out routine. The disease is our adamic nature. In other words, our sin. You are struggling because of the things that you cannot see. The things that are tormenting your mind, of the past, of regrets, of shame, are the things that run this world. Why do you think there is so much suffering? But there’s a way out. A way to be completely free from all the things that are waging war in your head. His name is Jesus. The thoughts that he thinks of you are good. Are of love and comfort. And they outnumber every grain of sand on every single beach. He wants to talk with you, to sup with you, to abide with you. He’s standing at the door, knocking, and all you have to do is let him in.

It’s like you’re taking a moment to admire life as a whole picture, seeing the sorrow in beauty, as well as the beauty in sorrow. It creates the same pit in your stomach that comes from looking into another person’s eyes as they smile, but you can see the pain. There’s a story behind each person, and this song somehow feels like a reminder of that.

This reminds me of all the people I have lost. All the happy beautiful memories and also the pain that comes with that. I miss all of them.
Beautiful and painfully sad to me. I always think about the meaning of life when I listen to this music.
Unfortunately there is no meaning of life. It is just a coincidence that you were born and not your brother or sister. Make the best out of it as long as you are here.
a life of hope for those of us who can live life to the end..
Life is meant to be lived. It does not have to be tied to a specific purpose. Human beings place themselves in a very important position in the world. So human beings want to label themselves with a purpose of existence that distinguishes them from other beings. But fishes are just fishes, insects are just insects. And they just live. Until you hunt them or step on them. You know that the universe is vast. In the eyes of the different life forms that exist in the universe, human beings may be considered on the same level as fish or insects (I'm not implying that fishes or insects are less important than human beings, I'm just giving an example in general terms to make the point). So there is no ranking of the importance of things and life has no attainable goal. There is only the path you walk. That path is life itself. If you insist on answering the question what is the "meaning" of life. You can choose to answer in this way: The purpose of life is life.
Life is eternal. that's what makes it so different from animals' being. There is no end purpose of a human. A human is bigger than even the Universe. Human walks on it discovering pieces and puzzles of truths and helps others in need, because the life is always with other people, with the Earth, with our Universe
Just make some tea. Don't think of drinking it.
The first time I watched the movie was 2000 and I was 13 years old. Even though I didn't fully understand the movie, something about the world the movie reflected hurt me. You couldn't talk about it with anyone or read it in a book, that sheer truth just hurt. I understood this more and more as I got older. I'm 35 now and I still don't know what I want. We have to live in certain patterns and we have to work hard to get out of it. No matter how hard you try, that meaning doesn't always apply to everyone, and you realize that there is no end to this struggle.
Well said. The perpetual struggle and the cold comfort of repetition standing in the way.
I'm 49 now... and that struggle still hasn't ended
This is a world without end. There is only the suffering of this enduring struggle. There is a way out… it is available here and now. Turn to the teachings of Theravada. The teachings of the Buddha. End this wretched cycle of blind existence wrapped up with wanting and getting. The end of suffering is internal. Nothing in this human realm will bring you happiness.
The struggle lies within ourselves because every single one of us is sick with an uncurable disease. It festers and becomes worse as life goes on. We go through life not even knowing the damage it is causing us. Because of the distractions. They hold us over so we don’t realize the true nature of life. Of how to make it all better. It destroys us. And eventually, it kills us. It’s our actions. Our thoughts. Our day in and day out routine. The disease is our adamic nature. In other words, our sin. You are struggling because of the things that you cannot see. The things that are tormenting your mind, of the past, of regrets, of shame, are the things that run this world. Why do you think there is so much suffering? But there’s a way out. A way to be completely free from all the things that are waging war in your head. His name is Jesus. The thoughts that he thinks of you are good. Are of love and comfort. And they outnumber every grain of sand on every single beach. He wants to talk with you, to sup with you, to abide with you. He’s standing at the door, knocking, and all you have to do is let him in.

This film is a real imprint on society, nothing has changed since then... the music is brilliant❤️
This is perfect for when you are on a train. To somewhere. From somewhere.
@@princessinlove14 your comment is so silly....
So it's always perfect. We're always going somewhere, we just don't always realise it. The world is in a constant state of flux - you never step in the same river twice. Move gracefully and move honourably. Do the work.
That movie had a profound effect on me, till this day, I am 43 now, saw it when it came out in 1999, randomly saw it on HBO late at night when I was alone and sick. This film is like church for me. One big reason was Newman’s score, it’s absolutely divine in its simplicity, like God holding your hand and telling you to let go, that’s it’s ok your are broken.
Мне 57 и я как вы
forget god, its like my departed dad holding my hand again if for only one more time and telling me there is no more pain and do not feel guilty as it was his time. Music like this stirs the emotions like no other. I am broken at the loss of my dad no matter how much I run from it
Andyzar1177, I am from Russia, and I also saw that film late at night, on 1 channel, and I can't explain my emotions of this movie, it was such a mystical...)))) and I absolutely sure that in this world many beautiful things... And nobody does not want this nasty war.
“and man was created weak” [an-Nisa’ 4:28]. This film was part of my history. It was profound.
@@SL-mr9fb We are just like each other.
I'm English, this film was utterly stunning when I first saw it...I've seen it a "thousand " times since....Still stunning.
this melody is so painful but i cant stop listening
As an atheist, I satisfy my spiritual needs by hiking through the dense forests of my homeland, listening to music. Special songs, like this one. Spring and autumn are perfect times. This year’s golden October is great. I‘ll have a walk through Teutoburg forest this weekend.
You may be a Deist sir.. maybe..
@@BussinMoto I may have been, years ago.
If you find joy in spiritual pursuits such as music and hiking then you are no atheist.
@@Amber-vn5yn I don’t believe in any form of existence after death (just some leftover carbon which will be recycled naturally). I don’t believe in a god or creator in any shape or form. I don't believe in the existence of a human soul. I think there is just individual consciousness, some have more of it, others have less. I don’t think there is a significant difference between humans and animals. I may be wrong but I think the term atheist suits me well.
If you're reading this, you know that someday your life is going to end. We have only this time to appreciate its beauty; of course, beauty isn't before us all the time, but we must try to remember it if it's not present in this moment. Besides the beauty, there's the striving. In this music, you've heard the call; try to answer.
Yes we know our life here is going to end, but shortness of this life was never really the problem, it is being in time that is the problem, and we don't know if that is the end, we can only believe it to be, but we are all in this journey, either we see each other on the other side, or we wont. There is so much beauty in the world, even with all the ugly and evil in the world, that I think there has to be more to this.
@@UncriticalRaceTheory If you had good evidence to support your "has to be more" (which is pure emotionalism) I'd listen, but all we have are anecdotes, testimonials. Not the same as evidence. You can want that there be more, but you can't support your wish with anything but more wishing, like wishing that the anecdotes are true stories. Have a nice day.
@@danieljulian4676 none of us have knowledge of ultimate reality, you dont have knowledge of how we got here either or where we go after we die. We all have things we would like to be true. We have many good reasons to think theism is true, while we lack the same for atheism. Cosmic fine tuning etc, the world looks more designed today than it ever did in human history. Even the possibility of science itself counts against atheism.
@@UncriticalRaceTheory Atheism isn't a belief that something is true, not for me, anyway. It's a refusal to accept claims of theists which are unsupported by anything but rhetoric. "Fine tuning", for example, is rhetoric. You have the barest command of the talking points against atheism, and only a whiff of the talking points for your own view. Nobody's getting convinced, here. All I said was that this life is going to end. I personally don't plan on anything else.
I am so glad that allot of you feel something when you listen to this music. It's something about it that grabs you and opens up your mind and soul. It takes me back to my childhood; it makes me think of my life and my ups and downs. It leads me back to the present on what things I am going to do today, then tosses me back to again to all the sorrows and joys of my life. Its my go to music when I just sit guiet or when I am working on some artwork. To me it's a very inspired piece of music. Thank you Thomas Newman
so simple but clearly not! possibly one of the most beautiful scores ever, and EVERYTHING works on this movie which is a classic
This is nice to reflect too.
Try Max Ritcher "on the nature of daylight".
@@seanc4750 yeah Thomas newman’s music is much better than that sorry
Exactly what I do when I listen to this on my own, thinking of how far ive come in my 54years and the people i knew who have sadly passed, weirdly beautiful
this music is absolutely amazing, cannot stop listening to it
Same like me
why is the pain so unberable sometimes
Magical. I think the Nobel Prize should go to Thomas Newton
Sin lugar a dudas
Indeed,great idea
this music is able to stop any fear or an anxiety.
I love this movie ....this song......❤
The world is beautiful, life is precious
Music like this is what keeps you going ❤😢
While I don't hold American Beauty in the same regard as I used to, this soundtrack will always be in my top tier of movie scores.
La vida es demasiado bella como para preguntarnos si merece la pena vivirla. Aunque veas sombras, siempre merecera la pena. La vida es demasiado corta y efimera como para detenerse en el sufrimiento. Recuerda vivirla intensamente como si solo durase un instante.
Para mi la vida no es bella, y no es digna de vivirla
I could be pretty pisses off for what happened to me, but.. it’s hard to stay mad when there is so much beauty in the World. Lester
Thanks for sharing this. This movie and music makes you let go of worry and enjoy every day
This music brought my experiences in front of my eyes.
nostalgia ❤
this really make me just thinking about life's purpose
This is so beautiful. It's great if you need to cry. This music puts so many images of days gone by in my head😢😢
When I hear this sound, I fall in my deepest dreams. I imagine sitting at the beach and watching the sun set and hearing the waves of the ocean. But the best this is, I am completely alone, there is just me, God, the earth and my memories.
Being atheist is hard sometimes. I remember those days feeling alone with nature & God. Was peaceful.
@@catherine520 Yep. Realizing that there’s no god and that everything is over and gone when you’re hardware stops working can be depressing.
@@BewareOfTheKrautWe truly do not know where we come from. Big bang, God(s), Aliens. No one knows. I wouldn't be so sure about discarding a greater 'spirit' realm. It fascinates me that we are literally clueless to the real truth of our being.
Walk in faith with thee lord Jesus and our father up in heaven will make way, you just have to be happy with the pattern you where give and live.
I love this Film and Track ❤👍the best Melodie 😭🙏
@SuperMusic This is such a fantastic piano score. Every note is just begging to pull on the heart strings a little bit at a time. I love this composition and American Beauty fit this in the film with such grace and precision. The piano truly is, to me, the most lovely instrument mankind has ever created!
I love how deep and philosophical people get in the comments when they listen to this. Very sweet.
i feel pain, but I have faith things will get better, never lose hope
I had a broken relationship in 2020 and ever since my life is stuck in this song loop , i don't know but i think i am just feeling lonely and isolated and this music just had something....
Bro, i know your lonleiness not because i've lived your same experience but because I know what lonleiness is, and i can assure you that your most trusted company is your own. I mean that if you know how to live without the necessity of someone's else in your life you're truly at peace
One of the two majors beautiful american film , this one of course (directed by Sam Mendes and written by Alan Ball) and the other is : Ice Storm by Ang Lee..
Cette musique, si apaisante et nostalgique me plonge immanquablement dans l'univers musical du sublime Éric Satie...
Grandioso trabajo y hermosa canción, especial para el relax y distender las tensiones como los nervios y la ansiedad
❤just gorgeous x relaxing 😌
Wonderful! Obviously!
Nice work. Sublime.
Thank you so much, my friend!
Such a beautiful score and as beautiful as it is, it also has something profoundly haunting to it. I remember hearing it play during a documentary showing the ruins of the WTC towers during 9/11
9/11, how clandestine groups within our own governent and secret services of two foreign nations that ushered in decades of war, death and a path of utter destruction to millions.
Almost 25 yo. Was it that long ago they made this masterpiece? Seems like yesterday put up and they say oke, that is the new soundtrack of this new movie.
This is mine life soundtrack that always helps me calm down and get some sleep.
This movie has alonged its own time
genious composer
An example of music that greatly surpassed its movie in depth and beauty.
Lovely film
I’ve never seen this movie … it appears to be a classic
Me neither. I just heard the song on Instagram and it was beautiful
Great movie. You should check it out.
You’ll start looking at plastic bags differently
@@michaelh9649 hahaha
It’s a masterpiece. I would say it’s a life experience. It helps you see more beauty in the world. Beautiful. The movie is so beautiful. Have you watched 20th century women? Yeah, it’s that kind of movie too. So perfect
the great film
So deep...…
The beauty and the curse of America ...
you know, dude, sometimes when you get caught in that turmoil of life, you suddenly say what happens to wtf, as if you've started to realize something again yes I'm in that situation right now and this music makes me feel sadness, inspiration and peace at the same time my god it's absolutely perfect I hope everything will be much better thx < 3 🦊😿☆
Everything has a solution, whatever it is, everything has a beginning and an end. Be patient, friend, I'm glad you like it. Thank you
@@SuperMusic-SM ohh thanks♡
@@SuperMusic-SM Your magic uplifting words in deep honor, your precious advice, and wisdom can save someone's life, a human in desperation. Your thoughts show a lot about the wonderful human you are! Gratitude to you in the name of us facing challenging times many, @SuperMusic. 🙏💜🙏 Such inspiring and touching music you've generously shared with us! Thank you indeed! The movie & soundtrack are masterpieces! Compliments and good spirits from Cambodia, Otto
I didn’t see this movie until like… 2015ish? Think it was on Netflix or something… but Where the hell was I in 1999 when it came out? In high school senior year graduating classs…
Cool😊❤
Best

You're beautiful. I hope you know that.
thank you, you're beautiful too.
Music that is magical but makes me realize how pointless my existence really is. No matter what I do or who I become I will perish and so will memory about me. Life makes no sense.
Music is probably the only way for me to detach myself from this boring thing called Reality. And this one helps me so much to be able to do it, by stopping what we call Time. Yes, that’s it; stopping Time.

This movie will always have a place in my heart, and the title track has a profound impact on me. It’s so real and candid. It’s like you’re taking a moment to admire life as a whole picture, seeing the sorrow in beauty, as well as the beauty in sorrow. It creates the same pit in your stomach that comes from looking into another person’s eyes as they smile, but you can see the pain. There’s a story behind each person, and this song somehow feels like a reminder of that.
so beautifully said. Thank you
No es facil
I have been thinking about killing myself the last two weeks, have thought about it heavily. I wept so hard when I heard this song just like I did when I was a younger, hopeful kid watching this film
Hey i am here if you want to talk to. I have been in the same situation but i realized pain is art my art and meditated to get to this point. I hope youre doing well now. I am with you. I feel you truly. You are seen.
I make these extended versions precisely to be able to meditate on things and think about everything that life has given me. We all have bad days and worse days, even those days can turn into years... believe me if I tell you that I was in the same situation as you, friend. I understand you perfectly, but sometimes all you need is to cry, go for a walk and, above all, talk about it with someone who will listen to you. I focused on myself, on growing as a person and that's why every time I hear a song like this, I extend it and upload it here in case it can help someone else. I hope I have helped you a little at least. You are worth a lot, believe me, you just need a little more time to see it. I trust you, my friend. Stay safe 💙
@@ASMRELINE A vida é bela...fico triste ao ler seu relato, espero que esteja tudo bem com vc. Fique com Deus.

I refuse to believe this ain’t from Shawshank
Your brain (rightly so) is telling you it's from Shawshank because the central thesis of each motion picture can be shared or merged together - live on your own terms and face the existential terror of living, or die not on your own terms and wallow in passivity and inaction until death wipes you out of existence anyway. Get busy living, or get busy dying is the beating heart of both films
often used trick of movie composers -- they re-use ALOT of their material
It these are your words, you are very gifted! Thank you anyway
Great for morbid self reflection
better than eno
Cheater wife+ mad husband=bad life whole movie
In the movie Lester doesn’t seem to be the least bit bothered that his wife is cheating on him.

Thomas Newman also did the score to Finding Nemo.
This is as suicidal-thinking now as it was 24 years ago for me.
That’s never the way to resolve anything. Look for support groups around you.
Keep at it brother, things will get better.
This too shall pass!
