The human race is so insignificant in the universe that 'your' meaning of life can be whatever you want it to be!
The one area to avoid are all the 'Bible bashers' who claim to know 'everything' when in truth they no nothing.....
They push and force their opinions and beliefs onto you and threaten you with 'eternal damnation' if you don't agree!....
I personally have no objection to any beliefs....so-long as they are genuinely felt and so-called believers are not forced into their beliefs!
I bet there aren't many of them around!

The meaning of life is not to be known until you have left this world. But i would say that the "meaning" is to learn as much as possible. The more you look at everyday things as marvelous the more you feel you are actually living life. Don't ponder the meaning too much man, it takes away the beauty and wonder of it all. just living your life is the best way to understand. Unfortunately this is one you're not going to get answered on yahoo answers. it goes above us.

life exists without meaning. that we try to apply meaning to what we experience says more about us than about life. life does not sit still, it moves. Heisenberg said that if we can say where something is, we cannot really know where it's going. if we can see what's coming than we really don't have a clear picture of where it's at. applying meaning to our experiences is a natural human instinct. do not be a slave to it. apply as you want to but try not to be a slave to the process. remember: the notion that we are 'alive' at all has never been succinctly captured or 'proved'... perhaps your meaning of life is personal to you. maybe others can shed some light on your path, perhaps you already know the answers (or path) you want to follow anyway. the answer is inside you sweetheart. looking outside can be helpful for background, but you will walk in the footsteps that god(s) has set our for you. you will find them, and become what you need from them, in your own unique way. do not ask others what the meaning of life is, ask yourself what you mostly already know.

Life is living everyday and having fun not asking questions like these! You lead your own life and don't let other people tell u how 2 be or what God 2 worship. Those kinds of people need 2 stop worrying about other peoples lives and get back 2 their own. Like Gwen stefani says it's ur life so don't forget! Speaking of life I got 2 tell my careless father who hates me 2 go get 1!

Actually I don't know. The meaning of my life is to learn and experience. To me a full life is a life spent in the company of loved ones and hated ones. To taste sorrow and joy. To wonder what the meaning of life is. The meaning of life is to live, not survive but truly live. Whether it is spent in meditiation and prayer or action and excitement, live life.

Go to Wikipedia and read the article about it. There are hundreds of answers. The meaning of life is something that an individual must decide for him or herself.

To provide a vehicle for the reproduction on energy. Everything that exists consists of energy, and therefore everything that exists is in fact a vehicle for energy. This would leave one to believe that the "meaning of life" or "the purpose of life" is to continue the existence of this energy. Of course one could then ask "why should we continue the existence of this energy" , and that question would be faltered. The question answers itself, why continue the existence of this energy? In order to continue existence, why continue existence? Because non-existence cannot exist, therefore it is out of the realm of possibility for nothing to exist, which is the reason why we exist, or "the meaning of life".
