The thing is there is no one can completely answer that question. So..... the meaning of life..is to learn and live as much as you can. Live; experience and feel all that you can. Pass what you have observed and learned and pass on as much as you can. Hey; it can not be answered now, so lets keep it going until we can!! Today is the first day of the rest of your life!!!- and today means all of the experiences of all the days before it. It will be tough; hard and yet full of joy and knowledge. We made it from one cell to billions. What can we do but to make trillions more, until we come to the next step. In the mean time anyone for a game of poker???

80% of humanity, the religious folks, don't need to ask the meaning of life, the church tells them....the supernatural explanation. But the rest of us can't swallow religious dogma, because there's no evidence. Nobody can prove that there life after death, that people are tortured or rewarded after life or that there's invisible spirits running around.
I've come to two conclusions recently:
1. Life has no meaning
2. Life has a million meanings.
First, there's a certainty that death and annihilation awaits not only you, but the Earth in general. It's an astonomical certainty that our sun will supernova and leave the earth a burnt crisp, not to mention all the other extinction level events around the corner.
Second, the million things that give us meaning are the pleasurable experiences we can conjure up during the short period we are here on the earth, in the form of the relationships we have with our kids and other people, and the 'housekeeping' types of purposes. What i mean by that are the curing disease, ending hunger, improving literacy, reducing crime, preventing war, helping other kinds of things.

Life: to be alive, living, growing, to exist.
Create the best life you can without mistreating or otherwise harming others. Do the best you can in all you do and learn that happiness is what we make it not what you are told, or read, or are taught. True happiness is found within.
Your life is, after all, your life. The meaning of my life is what I choose to make it.
Living by a religious doctrine does not guarantee happiness.

The meaning of life is to seek happyness and to live thankfully. Its good to live and celebrate everything.
It is natural for our minds to organize, to classify, to make sense of. This is what happens and has happened since birth. Our minds do it automatically or instinktively and unconiously while we are awake and sleeping/dreaming.
Happiness is something that is continuious and cannot be fully acheived. The truth of this is seen with matterial things such as Tvs, Cars, and a even a hair cut. Once we achieve or gain something that we thought would give us happiness, happiness is only short and then we move on to seek happiness again. Happiness makes freinds with spirituallity and phylosophy, things with out measurements.
One person came from a pare of parents, and their parents came from parents, as their parents did also. Millions apon millions of people come down to one point which is you and me.
Out of all the chances in the universe, if there are chances, it just happened to be.
Not to celebrate this, celebrate and use what is around you, and not to be thankful, is good.
To celebrate this, celebrate and use what is around you, and to be thankful, is much, much good.
Any way,...great question, thanks for asking,......

I propose the lack of Life Intelligence maybe one of the main reasons why so many people can succeed in many areas, but still fail in what matters most - living a meaningful and honorable life.

We can only have meaning in life if we believe in God. Without God, we are all accidents, and life has no meaning whatsoever. So, since God did create us, the meaning of life is to get to know our wonderful Maker, who loves us more than we could ever comprehend.

To learn, to experience and to know other people. Life is two-sided: it is a constant painful struggle, and a wonderful, rewarding victory. Life is a chance.

An opportunity to experience newer dimensions of life, newer levels of consciousness, deeper levels of perceptions (beyond even sense organs).
