I think the meaning of life is to reproduce and to let others enjoy life. If everyone was to stop having kids eventually there would be no life so that means there would be no meaning.

Hey, I'm Tristan. I was recently writing some things about what people think of meaning of life and what I think of the "phrase", The Meaning Of Life. It's one of those interesting and mind bogling questions.
So firstly, we must think to our selves - "How did I come to asking my self these questions". It's just like saying why does rivers go one way and not the other way? One person said is because they decide to. Normally we think of live as a pathway with many dormetries. When a new perspective of live is created or decision. There is a new gateway. We came to ask this question for many and many years ago. Humans had a instinct (may you call it) to learn, to progress. To be occupied. We come to ask us that either when we think it's a secret. That the universes will tell us the answer. We ask our selves this to find a purpose. Obviously from what your thinking right now. There is no answer and that's just something to live with. But find your own answer, be your own conclusion. In 12 years of age and I've been asking myself these questions from a very young age. I have no reason to ask this question but the meanings go on and on and on. So some questions I would reccomend you ask. 1) Who love me dearly, who would come for me when I'm sick. 2) What faith do I belive in. If you're like me I've never been a beliver. I've always not been one to judge faith, I like to think about things, not have "beliefs over them". 3) Why am I asking these questions - should I make a mind map? 4) Why should I be alive if I'm going to die one day. What keeps me going. Who, what, how does life make me keep going.

Please answer truthly. I want this to be a civilised discusion. I'm no leader, I'm no wise man, I just like to hear people. You don't have to answer. I love questions it's fun, yet upsetting. Thanks if you read this. Bye.

people, life is just the existence of all things living. i practice Wicca and am a "witch" as people put it, so the meaning of life to me is just the creation of Mother Earth's intelligence taken in the form of humans and spirits. that's the true meaning of life.

The meaning of life to me is that we are alive and here and not in the past or the future.Living our lives to the fullest is an important part to perceiving the meaning of life and understanding,or at least trying to, the true meaning of life. I have been always been wondering about the true meaning of life. But one day it hit me. I figured that life is actually not thinking about the future ( but we should, dont forget bout your responsibilities either!) or the past. We should really be thinking about the place where you are at that moment. We should never worry about the future of worry about what happen in the past.Even if we made mistakes that you probaly regret, but don't regret them, they actually help you not make mistakes in the future :]. And for the future, we should just go with the flow and let it be. So trying not to get off subject too much, I think the meaning of life to me is living being present and breathing and making sure that I am not thinking about the future, the past but the gratefullness of what we have at that moment. I think we should cherish life and perserve it.
( whoa, i really kind of got off subject. sorry about that. but thats what i think about when i ask myself the "meaning of life")

The meaning of life can be whatever you percieve it to be; everyone lives for something else.

If the purpose of life is the continuation of the species, then the only important thing we can do is expand our population base over a larger area so we can survive a celestial event. That means we have to expand beyond this planet and this solar system to safegaurd the human race.

The true meaning of life is death but it's not only to die we were given the purpose of life to live it to the fullest and experience great things such as love though this is only a small statement of what I could say in this discussion

WHAT IS TOTALLY BEING SIDESTEPPED, BYPASSED AND DISREGARDED HERE IS THAT 'LIFE HAS NO MEANING' IT DOES HOWEVER HAVE A "PURPOSE"!

THAT PURPOSE IS TO SERVE ADONAI ELOHYM WITH ALL YOUR POWER ALL YOUR SOUL AND ALL YOUR MIGHT AND TO LOVE YOUR BROTHER!

THESE ARE ONE AND THE SAME AS YESHUA HA MOSSIACH SAID.

IF YOU CLOTHE THE NAKED, FEED THE HUNGRY, COMFORT AN HEAL THE SICK, VISIT AND SET FREE THE PRISONER AND CARE FOR THE WIDOWS AND ORPHANS YOU WILL INDEED BE A SERVANT.

I belive that no one knows the meaning of life and the moment we do, is the moment we crawl up and die!

The real meaning is to have lots of sex and to be filthy rich.

I would say 42 but that's already been taken, so I will say that the meaning of life is thinking for yourself. Noone here can tell you what to beleive. So, go pick up a book, read it, think about it, and then you tell us what you think the meaning of life is.
