The meaning for life is whatever you assign to it!. Some people think it's to be "good", others believe it's to be the best you can be!. The only meaning life has to it is that which you assign to it!. That being said, if you don't do anything in your life then you'll feel pretty crappy so it's best to actively work on making your life meaningful!. In this way you'll feel a sense of purpose and accomplishment in your life!. Since we as humans are social animals usually in order to feel a sense of purpose in life we need to interact and be considered valuable to some degree by another person(s)!. It's almost like our degree of happiness is reflective of how we're needed or loved by others!. As for how one should live, that is another story!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

The Meaning of Life is the answer to THIS question:

God, what is Your purpose of Existence!?

For God's purpose of Existence itself defines the purpose of all that exists!.

I asked God that question!.!.!. God answered, "My purpose of Existence is To give life!. Since you are made in My image after My likeness, then YOUR purpose of existence is to give life!."

Everything that exists is an expression of God's thinking; thus, everything reflects God's thinking!.

God gives life by His unique existence, and receives life when He gives life!. All of existence gives life by its unique existence to that which receives life from its unique existence!.

This is Nature - the union of all living (eternal) things!.

You are here to give life by your unique existence to that which receives life from your unique existence!. So do what you love that nourishes those who love what you love!.

This is your purpose and what gives your life meaning!.

To give life doing what you love!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

If you believe we have free will!.!.!.and I do!.!.!.then we get to make all kinds of decisions about our lives, both matters big and small!. Some of us freely come to the conclusion that our lives do most definitely have meaning and purpose, and that purpose is about being the best human beings we can possibly be!. From what I can tell, the best way to achieve our purpose is to go in the direction of love!. I can't find anything more wonderful, powerful or important in my life than love, and I feel like I'm just a beginner in finding out about this incredible part of our beingness!.
