These all sound like very subjective terms though. Who gets to say what is and isn't a fulfilled life? [1]
And who is making the subjective judgement you speak of? [2]
It sounds like just another way of rating actions. What does it matter? [3]
1) This is THE excellent question. Every person's life, even if not explicitly, is a search for an answer to THAT question. =) Ultimately, every individual MUST be the one to determine what they think will bring them fulfillment, and then determine the most fulfilling ways to seek it out. No one does that in a vacuum. We are all trying to get to this together.
2) Any acting human being (i.e. any freely/voluntarily acting human being).
3) It matters to me because I think that your happiness and my happiness (i.e. everyone's happiness) are related and dependent on each other. I think the more fully alive I am, the more fully alive you may be, and vice-versa. Just reading these forums for the past few months is a testament to that communal fulfillment, at least to me.
