The answer to everything is ...

What is the answer to everything?

It seems that life is about finding the perfect answer. An answer, or rather, THE ANSWER to everything is the desire of multitudes.

I recently watched the movie "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" and a super computer called Deep Though was created by a pan-dimensional, hyper-intelligent race of beings to come up with the ultimate answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything.*

Till today, many people still ask this same question. For some, the answer could simply be "living the purpose-driven life". Yet for others, the answer seems to be "money" which itself posts more questions about life than answers.

So what is the ultimate answer? What is the answer to everything?

Maegan recently found the answer. It seems that the very supercomputer Deep Thought was talking about that was destroyed in the movie is very much alive. And in the person of my daughter.


She has the ultimate answer to everything.

All 1o.5 months of her and she has figured out the ultimate answer. Everything she does and every question she is asked, her perfect answer answers it all.

She does it with so much poise that you'll be forgiven if you think she's born with the answer. No one really taught her the answer. She finds it out herself.

She looks at life, looks at us and everything around her and she decided for herself that the ultimate answer is sacred.

Want to know what the ultimate answer is?

It certainly isn't 42 like what Deep Thought said. It's a whole lot simpler than that.

The answer ... to all of life's questions ... the answer to everything as proclaimed by little miss Maegan to our every question to her as parents:

"Want to change your clothes?"
"It's time to shower, let's go shower?"
"Time for bed Maegan. Sleep sleep?"
"Can Daddy carry you?"
"Can Maegan love love daddy (of which she will lean on your chest and gives you this really warm smile)?"

and almost any other question you can think of..

The answer to everything ... according to little miss Maegan is ....

NO.
