What do YOU believe is the purpose of life?

I believe it is to be happy, within reason. Ie: as long as your happiness does not come from hurting others, or doing morally bad stuff like that.

 

I believe it is also to try new things. "Living" is not simply existing in the box/mindset/ideology that you were born in - it is experimentation, changing your ways, going through new experiences.

 

Trying new things also (usually) makes you happy, which goes back to my first point.

the meaing of life is actually the same of any other animal

 

born

grow

reproduce

and die

 

the only thing that distinguish us, is that we are conscious about the fact we will die some day, and of course the faith, the belief that there is life after death, but this is a question no one has answers for it

I don't think there is any purpose or meaning in life. We just are.

 

However if I really had to define a purpose, I'd say try to discover other things and cultures, try to make others also discover these, and to die less stupid than I was born (that can be pretty tricky; most people don't achieve that).

 

Most importantly, not to impose to others my own point of view, but to try to understand theirs and take the best of it.

This is what we are here for.

 

To me it all seems rather pointless. There must be some higher

purpose or reason for us to exist rather than the day-to-day

rat-race. Trouble is, I don't know if there is a purpose to it all.

Some poeple look to religion but I think it's something else...

I just don't know.
