Find your purpose....then you will find meaning.
So simple to say...so hard to do.
The meaning of life is to learn and grow and share.
We need to experience many things in order to do this.
Not only do I care about what I do in this life, I also care about
where I go after . As long as you have God in your life, and
you have him in your heart, you will be a better person.
This is what we are trying to do here, perfecting our souls.

life is a challenge! accept it
life is a game play it
life is life live it
is the characteristic state of organisms and individual cells. Properties common to the known organisms found on Earth (plants, animals, fungi, protists, archaea and bacteria) are that they are carbon-and-water-based, are cellular with complex organization, undergo metabolism, possess a capacity to grow, respond to stimuli, reproduce and, through natural selection, adapt in succeeding generations.
An entity with the above properties is considered to be organic life. However, not every definition of life considers all of these properties to be essential. For example, the capacity for descent with modification is often taken as the only essential property of life. This definition notably includes viruses, which do not qualify under narrower definitions as they are acellular and do not metabolise. Broader definitions of life may also include theoretical non-carbon-based life and other alternative biology.
The entire Earth contains about 75 billion tons of biomass (life), which lives within various environments within the biosphere.[citation needed]

Life is a mystery to be lived not a problem to be solved. Live each day as if there were no tomorrow. Life is to strive for love, happiness, peace, contentment.
