    We exist for the simple reason that we exist.

    There is NO purpose; there is NO ‘Grand Plan” or 'meaning' to our existence; there is NO invisible space chappie; we are just a very simple accident in Time and Space.

    We are, at best, an accidental collection of loosely combined waves and particles responding to our environment ... no matter how sophisticated that environment may be or we imagine it to be.

    At the end of 'life' we 'disperse'; we dissipate into the waves and particles of stardust.

    We may as well have some fun while we're here without all that paranoia stuff - thinking there are invisible sky chappies watching and waiting for us to screw up.

    We are ALL, ALWAYS reacting to the circumstance-environment in which we find ourselves and EVERYTHING we EVER do is so that we can enjoy some 'happy' as a result.

    is one that most can't accept... to survive and reproduce, that is why you are here, if your parents didn't reproduce, you wouldn't exist. People that try to validate religion as the "meaning of life" are wasting their existence on something so simple. The whole "meaning of life" phrase/saying is pretty dumb.. listen close......... YOU ARE NOT SPECIAL! You are not a pretty or unique snowflake, you are the same piece of decaying organic matter as everything around you. but this is not a call to despair, it is a reason to be grateful and happy that you exist and to live life to the fullest, since we only get one. Just imagine all of the potential lives that could have come in to existence that didn't because sperm didn't meet egg...every time a women menstruates that is a potential person not coming into existence..we are extremely lucky to be alive. Religion is definitely NOT the meaning of life.

    Source(s): religion is for the weak, the weak of mind and/or the weak of heart.

    Being yourself. Making your life have meaning by your standards. There really is no wrong or right answer as everyone has a different thought.

    For not to worry my chosen people for all answers will be answered in dew time.

    For the earthly knowledge is not important for when I call upon my people all earthly knowledge will be forgotten.

    But on a note for you to understand is love. love HIS people for as HE loved you and you own sorrows will be forgotten.for the questions you seek will be answered if you you give your life, heart, mind unto the ONE who is.

    give your work to the LORD and your thoughts shall be established.
