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.....

To create complex electromagnetic interference waves with certain thoughts that, in the cusps of those interference waves, form vortexes or little tornadoes in which something is created. We are like the tines of a music box. The tines pluck out a tune and that tune is the purpose of human life.

to live life to the fullest. Make the most out of everything coz God only lend us that life. To accomplish our own mission which is to do goodd and receive good things. That's our pime purpose why the Lord created us. To create harmony and share love. I may also recommend for you to read: The purpose-driven life by Rick Warren/ "Why on earth am i here for??

I dont think we should bother with those questions. We're never gonna get a concrete answer. Lets just enjoy life and do the best we can with it, because we never know what happens after we die.
live life as if it were your last day. seriously. Whether we have a purpose or not, its just about chilling out.
maybe we have no real purpose in this life. probably we do, but who cares.

which technique of existence- To experience free creating wealth in certain situations helps with happiness. human beings can disagree all they opt for. they're utilising some type of technologies to placed up right here. They wanted/needed the technologies that they probable offered. i'm confident there turned right into a touch of happiness there even as they could pay for the flaws that further them happiness. Now I sound puzzling. go ahead. Scratch your head and carry your eyebrow. Is funds god? No. God in heaven is God to me. i imagine we worship earnings a way. the way we respect problems with fee. If it truly is sensible. i imagine happiness is the purpose of existence.
