Is life meaningless?

AnswerNo, life is not meaningless, because you have some meaning and something to give in life, and you always make an impact whether positive or negative. You could perhaps join a religion or social group. You can contribute to the world and shape it in so many ways.So the answer is no, life is not meaningless, life is what you make of it and what you do in life that counts.Opinion or AnswerSomething that plagues me everyday. I thought about this for a long time, whether, when given the size of the universe, if what I decide to do has any meaning, and the conclusion I have come up with is this: Life exists without me just fine, and no matter how large the scale, all things exist at different sizes or levels of importance, and that "meaning" is a human or individual idea. You can find importance in whatever you do, because the scale of our perspective will keep getting bigger and bigger, but never make any relative difference on our activities. Our lives can mean whatever we assign them to mean.

What is the meaning of life and why are you here?

The meaning of life is whatever you want it to be. We are here to fulfill our purpose. And our purpose, is why we are here. My teacher says that her purpose is to teach kids and change their lives. An author or writer's purpose might be to change our view of the world. The meaning of life is what life means to us. Does it mean to spend every second with family? Or does it mean to teach people about the world and change their lives, their point of view? Whatever life means to you, whatever your purpose is, that's the meaning of life. And remember that the meaning of life is different for everyone.If you have any questions about the meaning of life, please email me at:wolfeyes125@ymail.com

What does 42 mean?

42 is the international symbol for the meaning of life. this is the symbol, because the meaning of life has no real value, because if we did happen to know the meaning of life, then life would lose it's purpose, because it's purpose would have already been done. In short, you don't want to know, and if you do, then good luck (if there are any further questions, please direct them to the movie "A Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy". It can't do you wrong.) ;-)

What is the purpose of life if you die at the end of it?

Some say the purpose of life is procreation, however if this is the only purpose of life that we experience then what is the point of anything? The continuous Circe of birth and death is fueled by the belief that continuing to breed is the reason we are here, however this may be a personal purpose of life that each living thing is supposed to share, but this supposed purpose explains nothing on a larger scale than individual motives. On a more universal scale one can not assume that the purpose life is to have children, because if that is the only reason of existence then the universe itself serves no purpose than to support life and if life itself serves no other purpose than to create and support other life then the reasons behind the existence of the universe are of no consequence to any greater good or higher power as life in itself is fragile and short. The existence or purpose of one life is inconsequential to the meaning of life behind all living things. The fact is that it is highly probable that there is no purpose behind life, except the purpose to simply exist. I don't know whether this helps at all.
