What is the meaning of life?

The time you spend at work, sleeping, waiting, how much life do you actually really get?

I want answers from this world!

I want to know why i have free will!

I want to know why and when and what?!

Im sure we all try to treat people the way we want to be treated and we generally live a good life, kids, wife, family etc.

Is that enough? Or should we be happy with the life we have and not contemplate the next one..if there is one? (Does it matter?!)

So many religions...so many beliefs!

So many prophets? So many stories!

What is the meaning of life to you or what do you want it to be?

fucked if I know

Its weeks like this I'm happy just to define a day.

There is so much tiresome repetition. In the end, we are responsible for we are at. You decide to either be content to exist..or to live life. I honestly have no fucking clue

1) Meaning of life is to do what all your ancestors did pass on your genetics.

To fuck (pro-create), and to eat enough food so you do not die.

2) Humans are higher than animals, searching for a meaning to life is not a one fits all size.
You could do what the classical philosophers preach and live a virtuous life. Basically live a life without sin, karma and be good to one another.

3) I believe you must strive to excellence, maybe not perfection but you should pursue excellence and refinement, whether this be in a career,caring for others, (volunteering, nursing), cooking great food or eating it, purchasing great beer and wine, enjoying the consumption or brewing it, reading great novels or writing them, listening to great music or producing it. Fitness, improving your body and excelling by being in great shape.
Enjoying the higher cultures and producing the best.

Now without the first, you will not achieve much if you don't eat, some people don't want kids but I am not that person so I can not promote this lifestyle, but have sex a few times in this life you only get one life and it is very enjoyable.

The second, being a good person and not doing bad things, Great!, sounds like a good way to live life, but you can argue what is good and what is bad, I will leave it up to the individual.
This is the point people go overboard on religion and classifying what is sinful behaviour.

The third pursuing excellence, is a ideal and you will get distracted and regress from time to time, being the best doesn't sound like a bad life choice.

Weed and pussy in that order.

The meaning of life is opportunity. To wake up everyday and have a chance to change the things you dont like about your life through changing yourself, so seek what makes you happy and make a difference in other peoples lives.

Life is here... Now.. and is too short to worried about the things and people you cant change. So Make your life better by making yourself better. The positives and negatives are paid forward by those you have influenced, and is the legacy that remains after your gone …...and your way to live forever. How you choose to be remembered is up to you.

Money, cars, houses, jobs, fame….even weed and pussy... is nice but temporary... You can't take it with you.people will spend that money, drive those cars, live in that house, and work that job, smoke more weed and hit that pussy after you.. Each day you wake is your opportunity and yours alone to do something with your life..

I am, therefore I stink.

I don't think there is any real meaning of life. You are born against your will, you live, and then you eventually die. Life is so lacking in conventional meaning that all those memories that you think you have are stored in cells that didn't even exist when the memories were recorded. It's like your camera storing images, and then smashing itself with a hammer and then reassembling. You question what it all means when you are a continually evolving organic lump.

Anyone ever hear of this show, or is it Canada only?

You gotta live it up!!

Meaning of life is as simple as Experience and Expression.

You will Experience both Good, Bad, and Neutral situations. Your Expression to your experiences are of your choosing and it will define who you want to be and how others view you in this life. There is no right or wrong; however, there is cause and effect to the choices of expression. That's what my sig refers too.

Simple right....

I think for the majority of the world, the meaning of life is to perpetuate what came before. They do it because of propaganda and family memes. You must go to University, you must meet a man, you must marry, you must get pregnant, you must take on a 30 year mortgage, and pay interest to the banks forevermore. Credit, here is credit. Use it. We will give you more. This is the West. In reality, the banks need to be destroyed.

In this day and age to be perpetuating such a meme is a crime against humanity. There are going to be 10 billion people on this planet in about 10 years. Already people are struggling to survive and these are Indian mothers lined up on the street with their 6 children. 'Why did you not think that because you were born with nothing, then maybe being a peasant the same fate would not likely permeate your offspring?' 'Oh, didn't think about that one'.

Food prices will rise and they will rise for everybody because there are too many people. It's a meme to be blaming weather conditions, when the big elephant in the room is the ridiculous human race and their financial weapons of mass destruction. In truth, I don't feel much empathy for a stupid person that thought a fatherless situation would be fixed with the unplanned quick breeding of enough children to fill a Solar Zoo, nor a central bank that decided free money for insolvent financial institutions would be the way to go.

Meaning and purpose are subjective constructs based on the model forming capability of our brains.

As such "meaning" or "purpose" are whatever we choose them to be. For me personally, my meaning is to make my family and friends feel valuable, to provide whatever labors I can to promote the causes I believe in, to study the cosmos and follow my local football club. This is what my life "means" to me.

I hate hearing people wax philosophical about life's purpose. There really isn't any.

Lifes not always about family...

Many never have kids and prefer their own comfort.

Dont spend anytime thinking about dying and the fact your not breathing in an eternal sleep is the scariest thought ever.

Death comes to all of us...unless that asteroid in 2032 is bringing new life.
