"Now the answer ... is plain, but it is so unpalatable that most men will not face it. There is no reason for life and life has no meaning."
— Somerset Maugham, (1874-1965)
The universe may have a purpose, but nothing we know suggests that, if so, this purpose has any similarity to ours.
— Bertrand Russell
I don't think we're here for anything, we're just products of evolution. You can say, “Gee, your life must be pretty bleak if you don't think there's a purpose,” but I'm anticipating a good lunch.
— James Watson (winner of Nobel Prize for discovering DNA molecular structure)

There is only one reason that any entity exists and that is to procreate.
Of course we being special critters think we should have other purposes so we invent them but the reality is that our ego really needs to feel important and THAT is the reason we invent them.

Perhaps there is only one Mind and we are all individualized manifestations of the Universal Consciousness. We are then co-creators of Reality.

To learn how to use energy, that we have always been using it to "live"; to learn what peace is, therein lies our true strength) and how to share it, and by such sharing, give to ourselves the gift of giving; to love. It's all about love.
