Frankly, I think you're trying to run before you can walk.
You can take an empty shortcut like religion, and surround yourself with people telling you that you "know the whole truth", or you can steel yourself for years of study and rigor, and actually come to know something. If "love life" is really your motto (and I do think that's an insightful choice, suggesting that you do have some good direction inside of you) you will choose the latter.
There are multiple ways to move towards your goal, but the quick-and-easy religious path ("born again") is a relatively bad choice. Far better to choose academic study (say of philosophy, though that is by no means the only relevant major), or athletic goals, or foreign travel. Whichever you choose, do not expect to be enlightened in the next year, or two, or five. Ten, maybe.

I understand exactly how you are feeling at this moment. The world has his habit of constantly giving you a character certificate. Even when you want to live life at your own pace there are other who are constantly jostling and pushing all around you to reach their aim in life. For many it is an empty life even after acheiving all this. Because people dont realise that there is a price for acheiving everything. Once a need is met what next? When will this craving be over. Is there anything that keeps a person permanently happy! How to be satistified!
The first rule is love yourself. Dont worry about others say or their opinion. For me I measure myself through Jesus eyes. I know God loves me, he is patient with me, cause I have not given up on myself.
2nd rule is do what is right - be calm and contended with yourself as you are doing it right now. If you try to talk this with someone they may not understand and you may get rejected as "crazy" Ask God to send you a physical friend who can understand you. When you meet such a person you will be able to discuss these things with him you will know that he is God send!
If he does not send you someone, understand that he wants you to engage in a daily conversation with him, so dont wait and start talking to him every day! You will also hear his clear direction. Ask God for his spirit, because the spirit is denied to no one! When you receive the spirit of God all things will become clear! Pray ardently!

Run now. when you start thinking about the cosmos you end up a philosopher.
Or else it will literally drive you made. its like trying to understand something in a language that is far too base to understand it.
If that makes no sense whatsoever.
but seriously, when you start trying to understand the purpose and meaning of life, it all begins to get truely skewed with one another. I know, because I'm trying to work it all out myself, have been for nearly two years now and I can say, the more you look, the more depressing and pointless the whole thing seems.

yes, u want to be understood and
u don't have people surroundings,
and so finding sympathy or support
for ur own thoughts which are absolutely right
and it's from churning of experiences, readings,
etc. etc.
don't find ,
just find urself within urself.
what u r searching for - peace
and that u have already ,
we all are so cool & calm but
we expect from surrounding people, too
control ur thoughts,
ur soul guides u,
as u are cool so be cool from heart
do meditation,
and just live as a leaf , in the wind of life
we cannot direct the wind,
but change our sails ,
without changing our goal.
just pray to God,
Good luck,
love, light & peace,

Just procure a copy of bhagavad gita rendered in English by Barbara Stoler miller (Sanskrit professor of some american university ) andread it to understand the true natur eof our existence in a most scientific way ( Gita nd eflected on the creation of the universe , eveything else seems superfluous )
you can understnd th enatur eof life and how to reach the supreme stae of wisdom through the yoga margas ( by any of he seeral yogas taught to be adopted by .everyone according to his ability and capacity)
remember that when we wer eborn the saqint and the sinner were te same nameless creature - baby and when we go we are all alike blank in mind , the saint and the sinnerthe same )
We brought nothing and so we take nothing with us whne we go . We should not remember even our temporary name given to us for identification ,Our name here is our id for entrance in to this space of earth and we shal not need it when we go . We came with ablank slate and go with a blank slate . As we won't remember anythking when we go we would not go where we have been before we reach some destiny and so we won;t come back also as forget our address . We shall forget all thatwe learned here as they would not be of use there whe we might bve going . so the learned and unlettered are the same when they go as they are when they came .
so srtictly speaking there is nothing to worry and nothing to be proud of too.At the most our stay can be to a maximum of 36500 days only if at all we can live for 100 years .With the passage of every day we losse one day and and we are nearing our destination. this life we gotwithoutasking and choice and we can not enjoythins for ever and so let us make the best of it till we go as it is a precious one that we won in a compaettition among millions of our sibilings before we got into the egg in th ewomb of our mother. so we were sinners whohave killed millions of our sibilings even befofre our birth and so let us do atonement for our sin here itself before we go away as it is the only ;life we aew sure of and we are junsure of any furhter life .That is the order of natureans it is ruthlessly doinf its duty as revealed by krishna in gita .So do youfr duty as a sacrifice withoutr any expectation as nothing that you get in return can be taken with you , praise or abuse , dignity or indignity whatever So try to understand yourself first .
Actually you have no assigned purpose in life .you can assign yourself something that would make othershappy and would fetch you happiness .happiness is more in giving than receiving . Just do it to see for your self and enjoy.We sahll be giving only whatwe can never take withous whomsoever we might be .So we losse nothing by giving
