The way i see it...u gotta try to make a difference...nothing global unless u have the required skills. But matter to the people around you. Be important to them. Have a family and find the happiness that is usually hidden in small things. However if you are not among the lucky ones and you come to the conclusion that ur destiny (if u believe in it) will not lead you to the above mentioned happy situation then try to help others achieve it. Then at least u know that ur life wasn't in vain. Besides, u can never know when ur luck's gonna change;)

God's nature is love. Love must have someone to love and wants to be loved in return. God created us for love. One of God's messages in the Bible is, "God so loved the world that he gave His only begotten son to die for us that we could have Eternal Life, and a happiness that we can't even imagine, in Heaven.
Jesus showed us what true love is. "No greater love is there, than to give your life for a friend."
Jesus, said frequently, that those who love Him, obey His teachings. You see, the smartest human is so stupid compared to God, that none of us can know on our own, what is truly best for ourselves and others, only God knows.
God loves us so much that he gave us the teachings that He gave His prophets, and His Son, all together in one place, the Bible. That is where we can learn what the meaning of life is. I'm sad to say that I have heard so many priests and ministers say that The Bible says this or that and what they say is not in the Bible at all, that the only way to know, is to read the Bible yourself.
That may seem like work, but it is the most profitable work that you can do.
The meaning of life does not depend on anyone's opinion as some people say. Either God created us and He gives us our meaning or we are accidents in an accidental universe and then there is no meaning to anything. Thank God that God is real, that He created us, and that everything has meaning because of His Infinite Love for us.
God bless you.

The meaning of life? Life itself? The word life? The game life? the cereal life? Okay time to be serious.
If you're searching for meaning, you're searching for sentience. To assume life has meaning is to assume that something created it and wanted to communicate some kind of message. In this instance, the question of the meaning of life isn't about the meaning, it's about the nature of "the creator," and the assumption that this entity was both conscious and wanted to communicate something.
My sugguestion is to not look for meanings within infinitely complex equations such as the universe, or you end up oversimplifying (forty two?). As long as one has the desire to live, it is the most natural course of action to live. One does not have to justify one's desires, just acknowledge that they exist.

The meaning of life is that it is a stepping stone to fuller understanding and enrichment. Personal growth is what is need throughout life to prepare yourself for the next stage. Enjoy life and people. Be kind to others and always do your best.

everyone has a different version of of what the meaning of life is to them . the truth is we will never know what the true meaning of life is . for me it means that you have to take every obsticule as it comes and get through it to be sucessful in life. plus you have to enjoy life and be happy. but you have to find out what it means to you no one else can tell you what it is .

Life is life. Ultimately that is it. We search endlessly for meaning in our lives, but perhaps we might do well to wonder about the meaning of no life. What might that mean??

From a creationist POV: God put Adam on Earth to have someone to talk to and to take care of the animals. Our purpose is to enjoy life, to take care of each other, and to restore our friendship with God that was lost during the Fall of Man.
From an atheist's POV: Eat, drink, and be merry.

To realize the odds of you existing the way you do is nearly impossible, and to realize that your mere existance is a gift from somewhere, and cherish it, and use it to benefit all.
