What's the point of life?!?What about YOUR OWN life?!?
I've been thinking about this for quite some time now, and well I believe the point of life is to reach satisfaction, and I haven't found an answer for the second question...

i myself find this question hard to answer, i'm trying to answer it right now. right now i believe the point in life is to have a dream, and when you find a dream your truly passionate about, you should pursue it with all your heart. believe that you can complete it, and make it a life long struggle to do this. don't pick a dream like, lose weight, unless you have alot to lose. pick something you really want, like be a famous movie star, or find your soul mate, and spend your life trying to make the dream reality. and if you do complete your dream, make another one. i think if you do that you'll find your satisfaction.

My father wrote a book called "Why Am I Here?", he was 75 and a WW2 vet when he wrote it but he died before he could see it published. I now have the master disk for it. Take my name and lose the high and add lock at hot male, and I will send you a copy. It's only 112 pages long, and it will tell you everything you're wondering about now. It was his wish that as many people read it as possible in an attempt to stop the downhill spiral into total chaos that the world is headed for. He also did not want payment for it, so don't worry this ain't some scam thing.

i really needed to know how old you were so i could give it to u on your own level, first, u are in need of this filled in your life because it hurts. hurt something else, c u r pushing wrong buttons, positive affirmation are the prerequisite of staying the course just as bush is in the lame duck of his life the same things happen to sensitive people, we wear down from the job of taking care of our selves till we either loose focus, have new more pressing issues, but what ever u want to conceive as a conceptual acceptance to a new strategy, solving ingenuity, that is cool intelligence, so u have to not negatively override the system before u use it, that will wear u out and it only has to run into the first fool that says u can't do something, being able to fallow through down the road when you can't remember how or u never knew what u want is maybe check out the book follow your true colors to the work you love by Carolyn Kalil & talk is not cheap by Beverly Inman~Ebel

To make sure the future generations have a chance to live on and survive. As for my life that is a question I have labored to find out for a long time and my answer is to listen to music, become a doctor, and pretty much live the life I want to live and try to do no harm as I make it there.

The point of life is: Become all you can be. Learn all you can. Help those who need help and find the joy in the simple things God has provided. Finding God and I mean...your heart has God in it..so everything you do is affected is the ultimate.
My own life: I'm totally satisfied and living the way God wants me to...at least I try to each day. I couldn't be happier!

The point of life is to better ourselves and get back to our father in heaven. He has great blessings for us if we will just follow his advise. First to believe in Jesus Christ, that shows that we have faith in things not seen. Second to receive a body this we have done by being born. Third to learn all we can, this includes all things including adversity. it is a great plan and if we succeed we have the lord word we will have all that he has. To truly learn about this plan take the LDS missionary discussions. You will be under no obligation to join but may at least understand the meaning of life.

What a silly question.
Everyone knows the point of life is Fashion and Shopping!
You will find your purpose and your strength when you see that you are in a relationship with all other living things; and that you are powerful, purposeful, and peaceful when you serve in some capacity.

The point of life can only be found in the journey from birth to death.
If you forget about your own life and try to make life better for others
you can't go wrong.

although this is often seen as dissapointing, there is none. we are beings that consistently search for a "meaning" to life a "purpose". especially now, with globalization, and the constant stream of ideas from different religions, cultures, sciences, etc. there is no "meaning" to life, because there is no set path for us to live. it doesn't matter what you do, it doesn't matter how you achieve it. everyone will die, and i personally believe that if there is some sort of after life, that if you live according to moral values that you have come to accept as right through self thought and knowledge of ideas in this world, then you shall recieve some sort of redemption if there is one. a common mistake is to be told values, and follow them blindly, often from your parents as children, or through religions. think about things yourself, listen for ideas, be critical with them, and with yourself, do not always take the easy path, and i believe that anyone truly following their own well thought beliefs, will not fail in any afterlife, or current life, situation. although that was slightly off topic, that is what i have come to believe, but that isn't a meaning of life, that is the way of life i have come to believe is right through reasoning and critical thinking, so i am no hypocrite. meaning to life? nothing, way of life, that's up to you.
