The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away.
~ Picasso
I thought, Hmmm, that sounds a little too tidy for Picasso. Did a little more digging.
The purpose of life is to discover your gift.
The work of life is to develop it.
The meaning of life is to give your gift away.
~ David Viscott, psychiatrist and talk show host in the 1980s & 90s
from Finding Your Strength in Difficult Times: A Book of Meditations (1993)
