What is the meaning of life?

My answer is similar, "What am I here for, am I doing what I really LOVE to do?"

the truth is that you may enjoy the passing of time and not find meaning for life. Life is all about finding a purpose and fulfilling it. We've had those who are so rich and yet miserable. Others popular yet depressed if you want true joy find a meaning for your life.

life goes beyond having fun. True joy only comes when we give to other. The question is what do you give?

Totally agree, Urban Rehabber. We are here to serve others, to contribute to their spiritual and mind advancement, to make this world a more trustworthy, safe, loving place. I would also add that we are not the only people to live on this planet, many many others will come after us (our own descendants included), so in this context we should strive to maintain it as tidy and unpolluted as possible.

The most intense and longest lasting enjoyment comes from selfless, disinterested, true love.

Life is living the way you want to..

Thanks zenmarketing,


The truth is that we cannot only find our true purpose when we connect to the creator of our life. He alone knows why he created us. It is just like the inventor and his invention. The truth is that if can find this purpose our lives will be simplified. It gives us focus and energizes us.


Your first goal in life is to find your purpose for living. The second part is to fulfiling.

Today we celebrate great people like Mother Theresa, Martin Luther and others. The truth is that if they had not found their purpose for life and fulfilled it we will not know them.

The great quesion is how do we find the meanig for our life

Meaning of Life....to take birth and to Die........and the most important,that the time you spend in between the birth and death...that time should be full of happiness,respect to elder,love to other,and some trouble also and little bit sorrow also(because it reminds the happiness)......these all the thing comprise together and make the life......r we can say that the life means to enjoy,enjoy,enjoy,enjoy,enjoy.....and enjoy by playing ,by listening music,by watching television,by travelling,by loving other,helping others etc.

You are right to a point. But it goes beyond loving relationships. You may have all the love you need and yet feel unfulfilled. the most important thing is life is to have a purpose for living if you don't have it find one.

it will be your greatest joy and happiness,

I also believe that life as we live it here is best justified in the service of others, by that I don't mean you should run after people and satisfy their every whim but rather build yourself a conveyor where upon you can help as many people possible. If every person in the world helped just one person improve the quality of their life, it would certainly be a living eutopia for all of us.

There are many people that genuinely care about others, yet we see all the problems of the world and somehow sink into the depression of it all, till we become somewhat numb towards affairs that don't directly concern us.

A friend of mine is involved in a campaign to bring awareness about the ever growing problem of human trafficking. I was asked a favor by her recently and contrary to the excuses I used to make in the past, I just said yes I'll help out in any way I can. It turned out to be a small thing I had to do but many times, people will ask us small favors like that and we will be already contemplating excuses before hearing them out.

Now, we are not super men or women but by doing small deeds and stop refusing people, we are already doing more then a good part of the world's population. I used to have bad reasoning too, I would either make up excuses cause I felt lazy or I would say, oh well I can't do much, I am only one person.

But hey, I got news for everyone take great men and women in the world, they were helped by people for sure but a lot of their power would have never surfaced if they felt useless and lacked confidence to try and change the world.

The evidence to support my belief is found directly in the blueprint of life, we need people in life, for friendship and for the challenges and to keep the species alive obviously. Yes, you can try and live like a hermit or alone on a island but how long it would be before you start talking to trees and rocks, I just cannot imagine life without others , which is why we should always take care of each other and be of service.

Greed, the opposite of the above is what we should strive to eliminate, when we serve others we also setting examples of a good life and are encouraging those we help to also help.

You may have other ideas but in all my honesty, while we are alive, this is the most instinctual amd noble meaning of living.

Thanks for reading

Amen, thanks, you cannot get happiness without him. He is the only source of eternal joy.

The hardest thing in life is to find out who you really are when all the layers are removed, meaning your job title, the fact that you are a parent, friend, sister brother, when you remove all the titles then you can see who you are. When you can see yourself in true light you've made a first step toward fulfillment and change and finding a meaning of your life.

LOL (no, really.... if i can go through life and at the end of it i could still "laugh out loud", of every single moment...)

you're right it is only the maker that can tell our true for he, like the manufacturer knows why we are made. We are accountable to him only.

i'll add loving others.

Agreed. Simple and to the point.
