To express what we are, "God dwells within you as you". Express unconditional love, to the best of our ability. Silently say to everyone and everything, I know who you are,you are Gods unconditional love and I love you too. Toddlers will break out in a big Grin an reach to hug you. your life will soon be so full of love you may float away.

Albert Camus had an interesting answer to this question, and I reccomend reading "The Myth of Sisyphus" if you have time (check spelling on "Sisyphus"). Basically, Camus, an Existentialist, believed that life is inherently abusrd. That human life is analogous to the life of Sisyphus. (Sisyphus, a figure from Ancient Greek mythology, had angered the gods and as his punishment, he was made to roll a rock up a hill all day long. When he reached the top, the rock would fall back to the bottom, and he would retrieve it at the bottom of the hill and then commence rolling it back up- for enternity.) Camus believed that life is absurd the same way Sisyphus' life was absurd. We just go thru the motions and they are ultimately meaningless, at least in the cosmological sense. However, he still believed, being a good existentialist, that we can carve out our own meaning. We define the meaning of our lives, and leave our stamp on this world by how we do so. Though our lives, however we imbue them with meaning, will be absurd and meaningless in the comsmological sense, we can give them subjective meaning, and, for Camus, that's the best we can do.
Insofar as it says that human life is utlitmately meaningless and absurd, this is a depressing view of human life. But on the other hand, it is quite empowering as well. The meaning of life is what you make it, Camus would say. Carpe diem!

What's the point of perpetuating the species if it's all we live to do?
I'd like to know the asker's opinion.

god loves us so much, that he allowed us to leave the spirit world to search for our desires on earth. We weanted to live so that we could get something that we really wanted. You have lived a good life if you die knowing that the only thing you should of wanted all along was God.

Because it is better than the other option. A better question may be "What do we do with the life we have?" I believe that there are an unlimited number of correct answers.

NO. But in my smart butt opinion its to listen to everyone else b***h about their problems forgetting to realize we have our own!
Really.. I don' know.. yeah, I wonder what the point of life is REALLY suppost to be... is it all about accomplishments, achiving goals.. is it one big test from him up there to see how we handle things and how we react, what we make of ourselves..
Good question. I'll have to follow up on this one.

No, but I'm getting sick of seeing this question. What's the meaning of everything? Is everything pointless? Why are we here?
Who cares? Just enjoy what you have and find out when you die.

We live so that we can contemplate on the meaning of life.
