the meaning of life!!

personaly i feel that the meaning of life is where you find someone who you know is your soul mate you fall inlove and you have a wonderfull life together through tough times even when you think that you cant go on anymore you look into there eyes and you see safety and hope!

thats the meaning of life to live!
never to die!

(i know im strange so if you mods wana deleate this post more than welcome!)


Awww that's so sweet!  I kind of agree....

But that isn't the meaning to everyones life.  It certainly isn't the meaning to mine! :P

Don't we all make our own meaning of our life?

So there isn't A single meaning to life...life is what we make of it...

You'll Stand And Face The Hounds Of Hell
Rot Inside A Corpse's Shell
And Grizzy Ghouls From Every Tomb
Are Closing In To Seal Your Doom
And Though You Fight To Stay Alive
Your Body Starts To Shiver
For No Mere Mortal Can Resist

The meaning of my life? I dunno.. but I know my main purpose in  life is to be with Gilly and have his kiddies ;D . As well as being in my band - I'm just going to do what I love - find a job i get paid well in and can carry on with my band on the side and if we hit it big time, i can do that :P

I agree that there is no reason. Does there have to be?

There doesn't have to be a reason for everything, I think it is just us as humans trying to apply human logic to things that are way beyond us and would, as a result, never adere to human logic.

The average human look without seeing, listens without hearing, touches without feeling, eats without tasting, moves without physical awareness, inhales without awareness of odour or frangrance and talks without thinking.

I think that the answer is to support the place we call our home, "Earth,".
It seems to be all a test to see how long we can grow and live without destroying ourselves in the process.  But I fear that we have already failed this test, and whomever gave us this test is making us already give up before we're finished. I already think this fear is a plain reality.

I personally think that the meaning of lie (well for me) is
......to find someone you love
......to make that person happy
......to be happy yourself
......to make the most of what you have been given
......to make babies... (in mine and Annie's case mutant donkey-dragon ones :P)
....mainly to enjoy life.

There is no right or wrong answer to this question. To me personally those are to things that make my life worth living  :P and yes the mutant donkey-dragon babies part and all

Indeed. Surprisingly enough existence appears to continue on after us, and without our logic... it certainly doesn't fall apart without the religious explanations and scientific theorems we frantically apply to it. Which is what leads me to suspect that everything phsyical, and indeed life itself, is more likened to an energy flux or series of stable states occuring simply because they 'can'.

I've already given a proper responce, but thinking about it, the meaning of life is to die. Everything in this life is trying to get somewhere- death is just the final destination.




I'm still alive guys.....a bit like GlaDOs only, you know, ACTUALLY alive. :p

I agree with ^ on this one. To live is to die. Unless you have a potion or elixar or something to keep you alive, it's the one thing all humans have in common, really.

~ If lying to yourself makes you happiest then why strive for knowledge. A love for information is a meaning to ones life. Yet it contradicts ignorance. I believe that don quijote had the happiest life. Only in a state of total illusion will we totally be happy. Proof would be drug users. While drugs are shunned by society for whatever reason they are a gateway to total bliss. In some cases the persons life would border death. Which makes me tend to believe that we are only happy when we are dead or close to it. We are a species that strives for happiness. Yet some believe life should be full of hardships. That not everything in life is rosey. Also that you will love things you struggled for more than things that are naturally there. ~

If non-existence precedes all life (i.e. before birth) and after, then why does life exist at all therefore? Death is a stable state, one might argue, and to be caused to live is to be caused a state of instability, constant change, and futility, then. Why does life strive to live if it comes from death only to return to death? A little pointless, don't you think? It might as well stay dead, and not live at all.

I think we are here to...
be stewards of the Earth that I believe God made and to glorify God, because he made it.  There's just a lot of people not doing so.  (Don't hurt me; I'm not trying to preach or anything!)

And I shall be telling this with a sigh
somewhere ages and ages hence
Two roads diverged in a wood and I,
I took the road less traveled by
And that has made all the difference.

why is it that, whatever manner of live you lead, unless you believe in the big man you're damned as a sinner.

seems a bit, vindictive, somewhat out of character for an all loving being surely?

What I meant was that there are people out there that are bumming around, not doing anything with their life talentwise or whatever.  Or hurting people for no good reason, and making life generally miserable.  I didn't say you have to believe in God or anything.  What you believe is your choice.
