I think the meaning of life is to live.
That's what I think. sweatingbullets.gif
Jnn
i think there is no meaning, you gotta write your own...which is both scary yet exciting.
my meaning hasnt been written yet since im still trying to piece it together.
KIMBURGER
hmmm... i think its something MORE than achieving your goals smile.gif

I think its best that this speech comes from you and only you.

I know you want to gather people's opinions but I reckon you'll feel more comfortable and confident speaking about it from your own experience and perceptions.

once i asked this question to one of our substitute teacher..
he said "Time, Balance, and Movement"
i forgot what each word really meant, but i have to agree with his point.
To me, life is like Live or Die...

The meaning of life is learning and gaining experience.
You learn, live, and you laugh.

You make mistakes and you learn from them.
So it's either you gain or lose something!

biggrin.gif

That's part of my definition. There's soo many ways to describe it, you know?
Gofishus
It's to achieve your goals and dreams.

1) Meaning to life is to fulfill your dreams and make a difference, whether it be small or little.
2) My meaning of life is to become a singer and heal the world with my music. (sound a little hippie huh? laugh.gif )

chitah

The meaning of life is not think about it.

Seriously, If your in your room stuck and bored and thinking about philosphic questions like these, your not living your life.

I mean, If you were having fun on a rollercoaster, would you be asking yourself this?
sugarplum892
i think it is to experience stuffs you never had before and try many different things

Everyone has their own opinions on the meaning of life, though there can be no actual definite meaning. But the meaning of life to me is to have purpose, without purpose life itself would have no meaning. To have purpose is to have dreams, goals, just something to strive for and live for in life.

In my opinion. I think you should be doing your homework right now. sweatingbullets.gif

meaning of life is to find the meaning of life, which most ppl don't even come close to achieving

My friend said "The meaning of life is to...reproduce."

Haha.

Personally...for me.. "The meaning of life is to survive what the past has created for us. Be ****ed, or do the ****ing yourself." =_=
Kenstr
Hmmm, I think the meaning of life... is something that you have to find for yourself. Everyone is going to have different answers, some the same, and some that aren't. But overall, when we eventually do find it, well then... yeah. lol

Mines... is to simply be happy, and make others happy as well.
leXibOo
i think the meaning of life is.. to die with no regrets and taking chances.
Bamidele
There is no one meaning of life to me, you create meaning by your actions, thoughts, and the love you show to others and yourself.

My meaning of life is pretty much just that we have the opportunity to find our little patch of happiness before we leave this world, so we need to get over little things, enjoy the people who love us, and do as much good as we can:)

Meaning of Life? Is not to question life but just live to the fullest. Because life is so fragile and vunlunerable it can be taken away within a blink of an eye. Life's too transcient and short to dwell on the matter.
superfou
to shape yourself, to define yourself, with every action and word to better show the world the person you are. then, to share your life with other people, in the form of love.

i don't have a meaning to live on my life mellow.gif

To me, life is about making your own mistakes, and learn from them so you won't make the mistakes twice. Experiencing all the good and bad things in life and staying strong, but still being able to cry when you feel helpless.

Okay, that sounds absurd. sweatingbullets.gif

In simpler words, live life to the fullest, and be happy always.

1) Define it
2) What do you think YOUR meaning of life is

MEANING OF LIFE

sylph
It's logically that the meaning of life is sex.
To reproduce - to give life to more people to live and play out "the meaning of life."
joolee.
The meaning of life is to learn from your mistakes and to live on.
mochamist
The meaning of life is to find your own purpose and place in this large, bleak world.

1) Define it

Meaning of life?
To be succesful.
Not necessarily on everything you are [for ex: sister, teacher, brother, father]
but in MOST.
idk. my thoughts...
to die that you know you were successful to at least know that you have helped one human to breathe easier...is to live. ph34r.gif
living your life to its fullest, but knowing the consequences is the way to live smile.gif

2) What do you think YOUR meaning of life is
idk. sorry =/ i really hadnt thought about that. my meaning of life... from what i can see is that ill be successful, and hopefully, ill never make the same mistakes my parents and my siblings did.

Of course, every individual has a specific thing they "live for", i.e. dedicate themselves to. For example, I'd give my heart and soul for certain things. Then there are my friends, who have their own interests and goals in life. What we strive for, what we love - it all defines our existence, our life. Despite the little difference everyone's individual life makes in the endless stretch of time, we all try and make the best of it. Our insignificance is probably what makes us do so many things, like learning, singing, dancing, living....flickering lights, all together, alive. If a person needs a reason to live, glory and fame are meaningless. Those are silly concepts that has us all duped, and I admit I still want my piece of fame. In the end, we die...that's the sort of idea that comes up a lot. Someone once asked me, "What's the meaning of life?" some people even say that maybe there is not meaning to life at all. Yet everything has a meaning...it's hard to say it the way I want to, but boil it down, and life is life itself. "Living" is nothing more than existing, and if a person can find a moment to truly appreciate the existence of everything, they've found the meaning to life, because in everything there is beauty, and in beauty there is life. Each of these ideas depends on one's own understanding of what appreciation is. To me, life is something that I take for granted far too often. It's meaning is like the cloud of cold breath on a hot day - something I see only once in a while, even though it's always in front of me.


But I believe the answer should come from only yourself.
Everyone has a different meaning of life. Thank you.

To live it to its fullest ability.
Take advantage of what every day's gotta give to you..
