Nobody Knows What It Is

I don't think anybody knows what the true meaning of life is. I know people experience difficulties throughout their lifetimes; I know we are all going to grow old and die someday and I know that money is important. Beyond that I don't know much... but I liked reading what 18th century German philosophers thought about all this stuff, those guys were pretty intelligent after all.

`Ultimately, there is no meaning to life. We live, wee try to enjoy life but often we need to struggle to get the resources for the enjoyment. We hope to find a soulmate, because that's how our instincts evolved. And then, our instincts tell us to procreate, then we die.

We need to make meaning out of life based on what we read and see. I find life meaningful. I enjoy people. I wish I could meet more and understand more. And I like to make people happy, which in turns gives me meaning.

`I heard it was "Try and be nice to people, avoid eating fat, read a good book every now and then, get some walking in, and try and live together in peace and harmony with people of all creeds and nations."

`I think everyone has a different meaning. You decide the meaning of life based on your actions, your interests, and yourself. I think it's safe to say the meaning of life is always going to be a mystery, but the meaning of yours isn't.

`There was no intention to evolution. There is no reason for life. Accepting reality is much more inspiring and satisfying than trying to believe a Bronze Age myth. It is also, unfortunately, much more difficult. You have to really love the path less taken.
