the Meaning of Life?

access_flux · 01-15-2003, 05:02 AM

there has probably been one of these already, but i thought i would ask again.

so what do you guys think is the meaning of life?

for me, the meaning of life, is to live it the way you want to, and how you want to, as long as you are happy.

example.

if in ten years time, i am poor, and my band still hasn't done well, as long as i am happy, and won't sell out, i will be stoked.

but in all reality, there is no meaning to life, the meaning is what YOU say.

how do you guys see life?

Go and watch the video - I am sure Monty Python answers that question.........

"Every sperm is sacred,
Every sperm is great,
And if one gets wasted,
God gets quite irate"

I just don't care anymore. For me it's to have as much fun as possible without sinning. =]

The meaning of life is to move threads to the senate forum.

uhm the meaning of life is to distract you until you die.

The meaning of life, is life itself. That's the best I can come up with really. The entire point of life is to survive long enough to pass on a little piece of yourself into the gene pool, and continue the process of life through your offspring. The point of life, is to ensure the continuation of life.

To sum it up :

You're born.
You breed.
You die.

Some people say that would be a falsified intention of the meaning of life. People are supposed to believe we were put on this earth just to reproduce? Why should others be made from us to live another day and we have to put up with their attitudes and rebellious matter. I say nay to reciprication and yea to just living my life the way I want to.

This brings to mind a poem i'm rather fond of.....

This be the Verse, by Philip Larkin

They f*** you up, your mum and dad,
They may not mean to, but they do.
They fill you with the faults they had
And add some extras, just for you.

But they were f***ed up in their turn
By fools in old-style hats and coats,
Who half the time were soppy-stern
And half at one another's throats.

Man hands misery on to man.
It deepens like a coastal shelf.
Get out as early as you can,
And don't have any kids yourself.

what did obi do to my thread?

*ET Warrior* · 01-17-2003, 09:26 AM

Seems to me that he moved it here into the senate forum.....the place for the serious discussions......

The biological meaning of life is as Reb explained it - reproducing.

In reality however, we're now attained enough self-awareness to do whatever we want. You can call anything your meaning or purpose, but this does not make it true to any other.

In reality there's no meaning.

I had an epiphany recently what life is all about.

Whether there is life after death you wouldn't remember about your past life but you do remember this life.

You only live once.

So why not live your life to the fullest.

To live your life to your best ability and to get the most enjoyment and satisfaction from your efforts.

Believe that you are just as important and that you deserve the best in life.

Don't settle for less or settle for poor health or being too busy to enjoy your family, friends, and yourself.

GET SERIOUS and LIVE YOUR LIFE LIKE it REALLY MATTERS... BECAUSE it DOES.
