That made me chuckle.

Maybe there's overlap with folks who enjoy similar "zen" aphorisms like "Life Love Laughter"[1] plaques above the fireplace mantel and/or avatars on the Facebook profile pic. One group finds meaning in those expressions while another group will dismiss it as vacuous. They will never agree.
Based on some of the comments in this thread praising it combined with the silent 50+ lurkers who upvoted it, this type of topic has undeniable appeal. That means:
1) articles like it will continue to be to be written because authors feel it's important
2) people will continue to submit it because they want to share
3) people will continue to upvote it to the front page because it resonates with them
