The Meaning Of Life

Some time ago I posted a question here for Mind Warriors about what they think "The Meaning Of Life" means. I compiled all the answers into an "article."

Here they are:

The meaning of life is to be good to yourself and others. To practice love, compassion, and forgiveness. To live in Fate's embrace and never stop being the person you know you can be. Those who live wisely will not be afraid of death.

The meaning of life is to learn, develop, accomplish, and leave a mark on this planet that you can be proud of: To form loving relationships and grow spiritually and financially. The meaning of life is to lean, grow, and evolve. And, to live life on your own terms.

Life is about the things you do or don't do in order to succeed and be happy. We're all here to learn, learn, learn. So take the good with the bad, and become better, smarter, and stronger version of yourself than yesterday. Life is about winning and it's the quality of life that we have that's important.

We are the ones who give meaning to our lives by making something of them. Every person has the opportunity to live their life as they want to. So live the life you want to, don't depend on people's opinions, and do what you love while being the best person you can be. And, remembering to be of service to others.

    Could add: Meaning of life is to serve others.

    As well as adding to the greater good, when we focus on serving others we don't become wrapped up in our fears created by our own egos. Most of our stress and anxiety comes from focusing on our personal selves.

    I read that the best cure for depression is to shift your focus onto helping others with problems.

    So there you go: "to serve others".

        The reason we are here is to "Solve the Mystery of Existence".

        Everything else is secondary. Service is awesome and being
        productive is good.

        But if we don't have any idea where we came from or where
        we are going after we make our grand exit, what does it
        profit us?

        We are only seeing at present a few links in a very long chain.

        Be Well

    I think everyone have a different view about their life. You just find what it means to you, what make you happy. Basically everyone are here to survive like any other animal. Meaning is something that you give to something. I think that it is created by your feeling. Anyway, it is good to have good "meaning of life" like yours to encourage people live a better life. Cheers!
