Once upon a time, there lived two elephants. One was yellow, and the other was speckled. They lived happily. They adored picking flowers. Sometimes they played badminton. They hopped and jumped, and they loved meadows. And here came the Terribly-Big Meaning. And he said to them:
"Listen to me, my good elephants. Is that what you really want?".
The elephants were confused. They never thought about things like that. And they didn't know what to want and what not to.
"Good", said the Terribly-Big Meaning, "then answer me one more question, what is the meaning of your life?".
And the elephants started thinking again. The yellow elephant had been thinking for so long that he turned green, and the polka-dotted one hid under the bed.
Oh, elephants, poor little elephants. They could not answer any of the questions. They exhausted themselves and were about to die. They would probably have died if they hadn't recalled in the morning that they wanted to play badminton, pick flowers and chase bees in the meadow. They burst out laughing and went on with their business.
