what is the point of life?

Answer 1

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. -

Living

Answer 3

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.

So the bottom line is, we only have a temporary meaning to life, to reduce pain and increase pleasure, other than that everything is lost to oblivion.

To be or not to be? "To be" is temporary and "not to be" is inevitable.....

Answer 4

The point of life is the point that we place at the top of the letter 'i', you see, without head the letter 'i' would appear suspicious, or even without charm … and without a proper 'i' in the world 'life', that I obvious cannot write here the world 'life' would appear somehow without charm - yes, the one important point of life is to have some fun as well, while searching. Take it easy and nice!

Answer 5

The point of life... it actually depends on each different person. Every person is put on Earth for a purpose (possibly multiple purposes), and the sad thing is some people die without ever fulfilling their purpose. Your task in life is to find your own purpose, and to fulfill it as you wish. It's all your choice.
And of course, another point of life is actually just... to enjoy yourself! There is a LOT to live for. A person about to perform suicide just doesn't see that. He or she believes that there is nothing to live for. But they're wrong. Every person hasd the potential to be able to make something of themselves. Being able to find your own purpose would certainly be helpful to your life.
Anyhow, it all depends on you. How do you see your life? Do you feel like you have nothing to live for? Family, friends, especially yourself. Do you know how many animals and insects and every other living thing would kill just to be a living, breathing, talking human?

Answer 6

It's a gift for some; a curse for others. Not everyone has the luxury to even thinking about the point of it; some people are just scratching out a living and trying to feed themselves.
I guess the people who have things should at least try to help those who don't.

Answer 7

Naturally, the reproduction of the human race. There's also the currupt who obsess over money. For me, it's all about being happy, and living for the good times with friends and family. I could care less where I stood in the financial field when I'm old enough to live on my own, although of course no one wants to be poor. Finally, my health is also important to me. It really depends on what makes you happy, as long as you don't get blinded by the things in life that don't matter.

Answer 8

The Point of Life is that, you are here to contribute your own quota, either negatively or positively. Mind you, difficulty, stress, etc. is part of life. Finally, Point of Life is not giving up in time.

Answer 9

The point of life is...... To live. No, that wasn't some smart as* answer. That is just my opinion. The point of life is to live life to it's fullest, to learn, and love, and live each day as best and well as you can. It's sometimes hard to see that, but really, life is just another adventure. "live as if you were to die tomorrow, learn as if you were to live forever"-Gandhi.... Sorry if that wasn't much help, but really the best way to find that answer is to look inside yourself, and find what you really want out of life... that is the point. Have an awesome day :)

Answer 10

Why should life have a point? Maybe it just is. If you want a point make your own.
