to love, enjoy yourself, enjoy the beautiful creation, other people and discover the amazing creator who made you and can help you get the best out of it.
There isn't one. It's that simple. It may sound depressing but life is meaningless, pointless, and an accident of nature. Delightful thought, don't you think.
Want to know the meaning of life? I suggest reading a little book called 'Ponder These Things' by Rowan Williams. It's only 74 small pages long and written very simply (well I could understand it!) It contains the answer....
the meaning of life is an awareness.... an understanding of your purpose in life, a contentment that you are loved, a belief that you can make a difference, and the motivation to try. instead of going out and getting drunk this new year's eve, go and take a good hot meal to a homeless person...you'll feel a little bit closer to the answer
Life is a subjective experience, you have decide for yourself unfortunately what the meaning of your own life is, it wouldn't be any fun if the answer was just handed to you would it?
'ChocGenie' asked "...but what is the question?".
As far as I can remember, the question is "What is 5 times 9?".
It doesn't make sense, I know, therefore it must be right.
To quote Bill Hicks "The world is like a ride in an amusement park, and when you choose to go on it you think it's real because that's how powerful our minds are and the ride goes up and down and round and round it has thrills and chills and it's very brightly coloured and it's very loud and it's fun - for a while. Some people have been on the ride for a long time and they begin to question - is this real or is this just a ride? - and other people have remembered and they come back to us and they say 'Hey, don't worry and don't be afraid - ever - because this is just a ride' and we - kill those people!" Bill Hicks - may he rest in peace.
