What's your meaning of life? Why are we here? What's are purpose? Just interested to see the answers... My personal belief: You live life to witness the creation(s) of life Because you cannot duplicate the creation itself or the experience. Everything you see is a creation. From your phone to dirt You create life Without you life wouldn't exist
Well I am not sure if "life" in the totality of things really has a "meaning"...perhaps it just is...? Not sure tho.... But for me ...life on this planet is all about flowering ones soul.
Yet, what made us (beings with the speical ability to create their own meaning and purpose)? And, what is "it" that allows to us to make and create?
Well, I don't know what made you, but it was my parents that made me. This thread is about meaning of life, I stated my opinion, I'm not interested in turning this into another one of your 10 page proof of gods threads.
That is actually a very deeply spiritual thing to ask and meditate on. Words alone cannot describe what that "it" is though .....they are far too limited to even begin.
1.) lol... and what made ur parents? This line of questioning will end in one asking -- what does everything (that has a finite and limited existence) stand in reference and relation to, i.e., what made and precedes everything finite? 2.) Okay...
One thing you can be certain of is that you have no authority to suggest that there is anything more than "ur" meaning of life. Everything you can possibly say about "the" meaning of life is just "ur" interpretation anyway. Basically you're saying "ur" meaning of life is crap, and my meaning of life is greater than just "ur" because it means more than just my interpretation (which it totally does not but ignore that please). The only thing we know for sure about the meaning of our lives is that we are the authors. Life is too short to get into arguments about the meaning of life according to possible fictional objective entities we have created within our own minds to give our lives more meaning. It is pointless for me to say that "ur" meaning of life is somehow less than someone elses whether by the virtue of you believing in an objective meaning that you can't verify or by the virtue of you not believing that. In fact, the notion that somehow there is a "correct" answer is one of the main things we deal with in our lives that manipulates how we view our meaning. There are people who are deprived of the opportunity to decide for themselves because others have deemed it a "sin" to be who they are. There is not a "correct" answer and so far as I've seen the strong insistence that there is one has added more suffering to our collective lives than it has comfort.
What if like...and stay with me on this...BUT, what IF..like..we're not supposed to find out, until we are dead. Who gives a fuck if someone elses take on it is different from 'urs'.
Let's ask another question, which takes this train-of-thought to its conclusion.. Do you have the ability to refute solipsism?
The meaning is often not clear to people until they're about to die. Which kinda sucks, because by then it's too late to do anything.
If I could, would you be able to defend it? And if I could, but you didn't agree, what does that say about solipsism?
