I'm a sophmore in college and I'm been thinking A LOT lately. What do you think about life in general? What do you think we were put on this earth to do? Do you think everything has a purpose? Do you believe in fate? We work, have families, meet new people, etc. but what does it all MEAN?

i think life is a gift, we meet people and experience ife through a lot of points of view, we develop feelings and interest do to the meetings of said people, i think life is a gift for us to have fun and see how far we can succeed while managing to be decent people to one another, sometimes life throws us bad days and months sometimes but its all learning, and education can help in the long run, you meet someone you like or dont like there is something about them you do or dont like so therefore you can pick those you want to surround yourself with, and be happy and ultimatly love everybody, that is they goal i think, to come out happy...

We are all put here for a reason but I believe that we can choose our own destiny by the decision that we make. We all have the ability to make things better if we try and make things better for those around us by showing compassion and showing respect to each other.
In general though I would say life is hard due to the fact that I dont see many people trying to make things any better.

Those are questions that greater than you or I have wrestled with for time immemorial. Ultimately none of it means anything. But you must find a meaning. Perhaps the following excerpt from the poem "Dover Beach" by Matthew Arnold by will help provide insight:
Ah, love, let us be true
To one another! for the world, which seems
To lie before us like a land of dreams,
So various, so beautiful, so new,
Hath really neither joy, nor love, nor light,
Nor certitude, nor peace, nor help for pain;
And we are here as on a darkling plain
Swept with confused alarms of struggle and flight,
Where ignorant armies clash by night.

Whew, you are going to get some interesting ( long) answers for this one. Long answer short > I believe we are here to do good, we have a 'calling' if you will. You know, when you find that thing you are passionate about,,,that is what you are meant to be doing. It is like the chemistry you feel when you fall in love. Be kind, ...that is what is about,,, just so many people don't get it yet.

Everything happens for a reason. Even small things are important because they provide opportunities, like to meet someone. Carpe diem.

Life IS good. God put us on earth for a reason, we just have to pray to him and he will guide the right path to life for us. We have to seek him first. We shouldn't worry about life, that's y we ask God for help and guidance

i think life has a lot to do with love and the relationships you choose to make or break with others. all people want is to be loved and to find love. (so cliche, but i think it's true right now in my life--who knows what i'll think in ten years! ahah)

Your life is about you living it to your fullest. You are the designer of your life. No one can map it out apart from you. Your purpose is to do what you love and to be who it is you want to be! Life is meant to be abundant!

"If life throws you lemons....throw those lemons right back in her f**king face."
