My cup of life

I used to believe that to fill up your cup of life it has to reach a certain level of happiness and success, and have been somewhat contemptuous of those who say they have filled their cup, or on their way to filling it. I always thought that their measuring cup must be pretty shallow, but now I see that their values itself is different. They measure their cup by different ingredients which I can never fully comprehend, as I haven't lived their life, but sufficient to say that most of us aim to fill up our life by the things that we long for, and we value most. For some its money, for some its to rise above others, for some its being included, for some its understanding and love, for some its just understanding their purpose in life.... I could go on, but I'll just be making up some more random things anyway. 
My point is, at some point in time, we stop to think about how much of the cup really needs to be filled, and how and when would we even begin to fill it? Oh well, I honestly don't know what my cup really needs, so I am just filling it with whatever I see, and hope that I get a good feeling from it. Maybe that is my purpose then.
You spin my head right round.
