Life – it has a meaning and loving purpose - you just have to find your purpose and live it.
I believe every person is here for a definite purpose. Each person is special and valuable; that refers to me, you, your family, friends, in fact everybody! There is a loving plan for each of our lives here on earth and there is no such thing as coincidence. I don't believe that anything in life happens by chance and that every aspect of our lives points to something deeper.
You need to decide now to live for God rather than for yourself. You spend your life on Earth preparing yourself (as best you can) for death. I don't see death as a scary, negative experience, but birth into a bliss filled eternal life with God. I believe that this is something you have to consciously choose or not during your life on earth.
The meaning of life is for us to discover that we are true children of an infinitely loving and merciful God, to find out what our responsibilities are to our Creator, and to fulfill those responsibilities. Each of us is called to affirm, accept and develop the talents God has given us. -

It is a sad thing to see that so many here cannot find meaning for their own or another person's precious Life.
As a Buddhist I have meaning in and for this most precious gift, it would take far too long to explain in detail but in short it is the cessation of suffering resulting in the same for all Beings. It sounds so trite when written like this and it deserves a full explanation as it could be easily misinterpreted as self serving nonsense, but for me it is as real as breath and as achievable as making a choice.
The meaning of Life...? To be compatible with all other Life for once suffering is eliminated from Life then all Life will evolve in as many different ways as there are stars.
Peace from a Buddhist

To find out the truth of life. It is what gives any meaning. Obviously, something or someone more powerful and intelligent than us, helped us to get here. THAT, is the meaning of life, because it holds all the answers, and it would make sense that it does. Seek out the truth, it will give more meaning than you could ever imagine. Be critical, and honest in your thinking, as there are lots of lies floating about.

When you find the answer, let me know.
Seriously, I feel that the meaning of life is what every individual makes of it. Then again, what if there is no meaning? Would that be so bad? It might make things a lot simpler for everyone.

What is the meaning of the clouds in the sky, the earth beneath your feet, and all the stones and vapours spinning through the silent cosmos? Maybe asking why a thing exists is in fact missing the point entirely.

Jesus is the meaning of life. Life here plus life eternal with him and God in heaven.

To know, to love, and to serve God in this life, so we can spend eternity with him in the next life.
