Eh....everyone is entitled to an opinion....but/and here is mine...
Life. What is the Meaning of Life? Life....Life....Life. People have so many opinions on this. But here is mine:
Life is not just breathing and spending your days. It is not waiting for death. Life is not about regret.
Life is about living. And when I say living I do not mean just breathing and walking and talking. I mean living.
I mean yelling across a mountain top just to hear words echo back to you.
I mean spreading your arms, getting bare feet, and dancing in the rain.
I mean sitting at a horizon and watching a sunset and letting all your days worries just dive away with that sun.
I mean singing at the top of your lungs without worrying if you sound good or bad.
I mean just running at full speed just 'cause.
I mean giving a destitute even a penny just to see a smile on their face.
I mean putting a big inspirational grin from your heart on your face even through moments of depression.
I mean putting a smile on those faces that are filled with sadness or wet with tears.
So, my friend, what is life? Life is simply living. But living for this world. There is so much sadness, melancholy, hate, sorrow, pain, and agony in this world. It wouldn't hurt to just get up in the morning and put a smile on your face. And think....that today...today...I'll live for this world. Today I'll dance in the rain just 'cause. Today I'll sing in a crowd just 'cause. Today I'll say hello to everyone I see just 'cause. Just 'cause there is enough sadness in this world...and maybe, just maybe, if I can put a smile on my face and cheer someone else up...AKA live for this world....maybe, just maybe, There will be some...a little bit of less sadness and melancholy in this world. Maybe...Just Maybe.
There you go, that's my opinion. Life is living for this world and without a reason. Just living for this world....just 'cause. Just cause you want to lessen that sadness that weighs this world down.

There is no meaning of life. So it can't be.
If there was a purpose to life, some reason or meaning behind it that we could discover, things would be a lot different around here. And it doesn't make any sense, no matter how many people say it, that the meaning of life is to love each other and be nice and help other people. That is a noble way to live your life, its not a meaning. There are too many screwed up things in this world, too many contradictions and paradoxes, for there to be any reason behind it.
The only truth to life is life. You're alive. And you decide what that means by the things you do from day to day.

Yes why not. Life is actually an extension to another perplexing form of living. In fact, this living has burden beyond what life was all about in the first place. The arduous tasks of living have percussion on disparity being the crucial infringement for humanity. Sorrow and happiness became a fundamental of our lives. The meaning of life is eking out a good and honorable living for us.

Interesting question! I would say so. I think we are all here for different reasons and those reasons are as diverse as the people on this planet. It's up to each and every one of us to find out for ourselves the reason why we are here. I'm actually trying to find the meaning of my own life. We all have to find our own passion, purpose and mission in this world. Sometimes it takes an entire life to figure it out and some never do. It's definitely food for thought.

Some of have the need to discover TRUTH, no matter how uncomfortable it may be. Others have the need for COMFORT, no matter what the truth may be.
The former are the people who drive forward our understanding of life - the scientists and philosophers and others. The latter are the religious, who contribute nothing, who cling to the comforts of a kind mother-father in the sky and an afterlife. They try their darnest to drag the truth-seekers down with them.
So, in answer to your question - yes.

Well, obviously not.
...and if you would like to chat about ant of those 17 related questions you posed earlier, I'd be pleased, but one at a time, Fair? Or are you mad that I added you to my favorites because I respected and was pleasantly surprised at your informed response to a difficult question? You probably don't even need to use spell check.
Let me know.
Or hide if you want.

no, the meaning of life is to find love.

I would say the meaning of life is to learn the love of God, distinguish good from evil, and know innocence from guilt.

Probably, as we all spend forever trying to find it and then die without getting any further. Maybe right before everyone dies they realise this. I'll miss you =P
