Nothing. That is the meaning of life.

Dear Friends,
Ignoring the nihilist comment of Mathias, I say we all have our own meaning of life.
But I'll start by the beginning. Our parents created us so we could make them happy (unless it was an accident, like it happened to me) and continue the dinasty.
But personnaly, we creat our concept of life, happiness and all meanings. The meaning of my life, for example, to follow the art of my family, Equitation. taking care of horses, riding them, teaching other people this noble art...
You just have to find your own meaning of life.
PS: I also believe I am a good novelist, poet and philosopher (when i'm in the right mood).
i guess the meaning of my life atm is to become an actor, and from then on rise through the ranks, as it were, until i find a non-acting-related goal
i guess the meaning of life is also to reproduce....kinda lamely, we are born to create more humans![]()
The meaning of life is to serve God by living a righteous life and prepare for the hereafter.
"When one person suffers from a delusion it is called insanity. When many people suffer from a delusion it is called religion." -- Robert Pirsig
"Feminists are silent when the bills arrive." -- Aetius
"Women have made a pact with the devil in return for the promise of exquisite beauty, their window to this world of lavish male attention is woefully brief." -- Some Guy
Love life, get laid and get paid.

My meaning of life has to be, never let an opportunity pass you by. Ive lived by it and my lifes been pretty ****in awesome.
Also try not to do anythin that would make the rest of your life be shite or makes you miss out on stuff.
Like say you weighed 20 stone or sumthin, what kind of life are you living?? A **** one, you should lose the weight so you dont miss out on anything.
Weve only got one life, id love there to be a heaven, so it isnt so final, but i dont have high hopes; best not to miss anything.
So dont let any oppurtunitys pass you by, also dont **** up anyone elses life, cause thats just harsh. We only get to exist once.
I just don't buy the statement that we all create our own meaning. We create our own goals and decide what we want to do, but I think about the meaning of life as the predetermined reason for why we are here on earth.

Sorry I thought this was a discussion about the film![]()
Anyways I think the meaning of life is to simply enjoy it and have a laugh! Why else would it be so good to enjoy ones self? On that note I leave you with Mr. Creosote from said movie. Enjoy!

One thing is for certain: the more profoundly baffled you have been in your life, the more open your mind becomes to new ideas.
-Neil deGrasse Tyson
Let's think the unthinkable, let's do the undoable. Let us prepare to grapple with the ineffable itself, and see if we may not eff it after all.
"Deus Caritas Est!"
“God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him” (1 Jn 4:16)
Love.
Love God, your enemies, friends, family, and the world despite all the hurt.
Don't waste your time.
Try to realise that you are not the centre of the whole damn universe.

Why do humans look for meaning?
All the other creatures of the earth are content to simply live. What makes us different?

Loving all is wasting your time. Love yourself and the people close to you, use those you don't need, destroy those who are your enemies, make your own rules.
Fighters never quit, Quitters never fight.

why must there be a meaning to life at all?
