A meaningful life is not about material gain, power or fame; these are only of passing value. True meaning comes from an inner sense of peace and contentment, which in turn must be based on a sense of caring and love for others.

Scientist Robert Guthrie invented #Pku screening. He wanted to save children. When a private company tried to profiteer from his invention, the US Senate Chair declared it was “immoral and evil” to make monopoly profits from children’s health and revoked their contract.
