What Is The Meaning Of Life?

13 years ago

This is a very difficult question to answer.

I guess life is what you make of it. The meaning of life is not the same for everyone. Your life has one meaning, the life of another person will have another meaning, and my life will have another meaning. In reality we are the ones who give meaning to our lives by making something of it. Every person has the opportunity to live their life as they want to.

I know everyone will have a slightly different (and unique) perspective on the meaning of life but that's what makes this exercise so fun and interesting. : )

I enjoy reading other people's point of view.

Thanks for the answer Florian84.

How cool are erasable pens. Old tech but man who'd a thunk it?

I believe that everyone defines their own meaning.

For most, I don't think there is any. At times I'm jealous of them, they just sort of exist, survive and don't put much thought into it.

There are more "meanings" than anyone can count.

I want to take care of my family, that's my primary meaning.

I'd like to provide them more expriences and freedom than we have right now.

That's why I'm so interested in learning a better way to generate money than trading time for it.

Thanks

I think life, in the way we humans define it, doesn't have a meaning. That's because we're living in our own creation - society, rules, governance, culture, etc.

The way I think of life is that we're beings undergoing a transformation, recently accelerated by the permeation of "instantaneous" media. That means we get nearly instant responses whenever we perform an action.

That transformation is of our 'personality'. The people we meet, the languages we learn, the modes of communication we have, the traditions we adhere to, the rules we bend, the lessons we learn...

One who lives wisely will not be afraid or be in terror of death.

To learn, develop, accomplish and leave a mark on this planet that you can be proud of. At least that's my foundation for living. The best feeling in the world is knowing that you are making steps forward even if it does go unnoticed by the general population.

I used to be a depressed, sad basta*d. It wasn't until my previous experiences and global awareness all hit me at once, that I truly realized life is what you make it. We really do have the power of choosing our own destiny. Developing a unstoppable mindset is key, once you know what getting knocked down feels like, you soon develop coping strategies and eventually be able to detour those downfalls all together.

Never stop trying to be the person you know you can be. Dreams come true everyday. Just need to develop your own unique path of getting there, using perseverance and determination as your brick and mortar.

For me life should make fun and that is all about. Most people follow the old-fashioned way of thinking - go to school, go to university, get a job, find a wife, buy a house, pay your mortgages... I totally dislike this approach.
Being successful in affiliate marketing made my dream life come true. Now I have a plenty of free time and work only when I want. If I want to sleep till midday, I simply do it. If I want to go to the gym, I do it. I travel the world a lot and meet different people and cultures. In one sentence: you should live the life you want and not let yourself depend on people's opinion and work...

Life is meaningful if you find clarity in your purpose and destination.
Life is what we make out of it, the decision we make and embracing the path we take.
Life is also about relationship, about the sufferings and about the victories.

And the greatest of all... Life is about sowing, because whatever we sow, in our family, relationship, business and ourselves we will have a harvest out of it either good or bad.

Thanks

I think that rather than asking about what the meaning for life is. I think the better questions are related to what are the reasons for life, what are reasons for living and how does one create meaning in one's own life.

Michael Ten's answer works too! I would combine it with "winning", though

The meaning of life is winning! Even if you think you're losing, you're actually winning! It's not easy to embrace, but once you do, you'll find what you're looking for and you'll be at peace :-)

First you should ask if there's a God or Creator. If there is then there must be some purpose to the universe. But nobody has proven or disproven God's existence. Therefore the meaning of life is irrelevant.

The only meaning that matters is the meaning you give to YOUR life.

IF there is a creator, why would that give life more purpose? Are you suggesting we are part of some supreme being's master plan, and that our purpose is to fulfill it? Sorry, I don't buy it.

I believe we are here to learn, learn, learn some more, grow, and evolve. Take the good with the bad, and become better, stronger, and smarter than yesterday.

Is the relation that exists within the mind and the self with the wold outside of ones self, but in a whole open unadulterated style and fashion! ...hence minimizing the change factor brought by the interaction. It is value brought to the world by you existing and interacting with it, someone mentioned human relationships with others as the key to living a meaningful life, but that's only part of the equation! its value at its most common denominator, but what is left as the result of you being in a state of being.
Yeah hard question to answer in such a short time that we exist.

If life has meaning, it has meaning for you and you alone now. Other than that no one really knows if life has meaning. Only those who say so are correct. And who can question another person's reality?
