People come and go, we live now and be gone after some years, nd be gone, and new one comes and be gone after some year. We face all aspects of life, we eat, enjoy, fail, get sick, get well, fail and triumph and die. What we do? with all this passing time and all be gone?
We chat for what? What is there in life? What is the real meaning of life? Some say to enjoy, others say to be remembered, some say to contribute to the future of mankind. Yes those are all good reasons to live but all will pass away. Great man made things ended, even great men ends. There were people who lived here 300, 500, 700 and so years ago, they were our forefathers and who are they? they loughed, cried got angry and and felt what we feel but all gone, just like us. After 200, 300, 400, 500, 600 years who will know us? Just like them we were all long gone. Tell me what is the real essence of life. How can we get into the real essence.
Tell us so we may have a truely meaningful life.
Thanks

The answers have merits in each ones view, but after doing what one thinks and dies, what does one really gain? all will be nothing for himself? All that is acconplished will pass away and he himself and all that he left behind for others and these others will also pass away and so on. Then what is really the meaning of these passing things.
One told me that his riches and legacy he will leave asinheritance for his sons and grandsons which I find good and right but even those people will vanish for sure and those that will follow. What will really one gain in this life. Nothing?

That's for you to decide.
As you already have mentioned, each individuals has different motives to keep themselves active in their life. Some people has completely different things in mind. Something that nobody has ever thought of in any century of this world. Think out side the box. Meaning don't think within the limit of other's motives and "their meaning of life". You have your own. Maybe similar, but different.
PS: What do you mean "we"? This already tells me that you're not thinking as an individual. You're constantly thinking of yourself as one of the majority. Well, we all are, but you know what I'm basically trying to say.

Just think about it, all that waits for you after all your hard work , all you suffering, all your heartbreaks is a lonely cold grave. Sad isn't it? We all try to make sense of it. Maybe we do evolve into spirit beings and things are better on the other side and maybe we're remembered there for all we did here. But think about this, all the people here who would have remembered you will be there also, someday...So maybe its not here that you'll get rewarded or acknowledged, doesn't mean it won't happen. If we can talk to someone in another country and our voice can travel that far in an instant and we don't question it, why can't our spirit do the same thing? Just think about it and have fun while you're here.

We all come here to learn lessons and pass on ideas we have created. Just as a student is not expected to remain in the school longer than necessary, we are not expected to remain in the world forever. It is sad but that is the way it is. Just live to satisfy you conscience, obey your creator, do the best you can and leave the rest to posterity.

Aaagh, this question is continuosly running through my head!!!It's just a cycle, we're here to make more of us, who are here to make more of them, and so on...But tha is the sole purpose, there is no reason, like to invent things and discover things, but that are only usefull to these people who are here!I'm probably not explaining myself very well!But there is no point basically, we're breeding machines and there doesn't seem to be any purposebut to create more - but for what point!?
I don't know, I don't think anyone ever will!!!!

You are asking the people on Yahoo? This is a question the greatest philosophers (in addition to most other people) have pondered since we developed the cognitive abilities to do so. If anyone knew the answer to that, they would indeed achieve immortality.

It's all here for you. If you weren't here none of this would be here either. It is a world for your enjoyment, education and creation. The meaning of your life is what are you going to do with it. It is an empty canvas for your hand to bring to life. Life after life. death after death.

life can only be understood properly only in the terms of religion& spiritualism.islamic faith defines human life as a test and trial by GOD TO test his created humanbeings that who are the ones who are able to recognise and develop their faith in their creator and who are able to distinguish between virtue and vice an who are able to do good deeds,and that all the human beings will be resurrected on the day of judgement before GOD ALMIGHTY to account for the deeds committed by themselves individually in their trial of earthly life.

It is for the individual to decide, no one has the acceptable answer.

We're born to live,
We're born to dream.
Our destiny is to die
and our mission is to love.
