The meaning of life is a very complicated matter. Everyone is born and everyone dies, and we soon see that it's an endless cycle.

We learn that life is about living it to the fullest. We learn that not everything is about success, we must also find joy in our lives. So while the meaning of life is to understand ourselves, we set goals for life.

I think that life is about discovery. And everyone has a purpose. Everyone will help eachother in some way or another, even if we don't know it. And everyone will try to find happiness. That's just human nature.

So all in all, i would have to say that the meaning of life is to seek knowledge.


I love these questions that have puzzled humanity throughout history. It is really all about your personal beliefs and philosophies. Great topic!

read the book ASK AND IT IS GIVEN by Esther and Jerry Hicks. also look into this thing called the law of attraction. there is a movie on it called The Secret. this may help you. my lifes meaning is to have a good time and do what ever feels good. you may find that yours is different, but why? oh, i recomend watching the movie before you read the book. if the movie interests you, the book will be a ton of help.
good luck finding your answer,

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. -

Life has only as much meaning as you put in to it. By its self it only means you aint dead yet. For it to have meaning you must put meaning into what you do with it.

who was that saint who said he had figured it out and then died before revealing it? Ring a bell to anyone?

Maybe there isn't an answer to that question. At least I haven't figured out what it is but I am in a deep deep depression. I really don't see what the point is. You're born and then you die. Woo. Yes, yes I know. pessimistic.

Rely on yourself and not on handouts from others.

Build your own independence with some pride and dignity. Relationships will come after that.

(People who have everything given to them never realize that.)

Don't live with your parents until you're 50 and then live on their inheritance or Grandma's Trust fund......Those are the weakest individuals of all.

Well from the islamic point of veiw is that god gave a mind of choice. im not trying to be racist or anything but i think that it doesnt matter what religion you are. it just depends on what you do and what your ethics are. in debate class we always dicuss what the meaning is and you can really learn from what people say.
