WHAT`S THE PURPOSE OF LIFE

IT’S WHATEVER YOU WANT TO DO

@farouk, “As human beings we sould unite in 1 calling to regulate and leave a righteous legacy for us to by praising and living according our higher power”
Oh so you want like a confederation like in star wars and lord of the rings? Yeah, wouldn’t that be sweet? Too bad in real life the enemy isn’t such a pussy. We need to turn it up, get activated.

We ascribe meaning to our own lives.

If the meaning you ascribe is to workshop a higher power then that is what your life shall be.

The meaning I ascribe is to be the best person I can be and experience everything I can in the short life that I have.

@farouk, Everything is randomness. Life is about connecting random dots to create meaning. Meaning is created through Ideas and Information. Look around you right now. I guarantee 90% of what you see was derived from someones imagination. “As human beings we sould unite in 1 calling to regulate and leave a righteous legacy for us to by praising and living according our higher power.” Your logic of imagination getting in the way of the purpose is invalid, because you just used imagination to formulate this thought.

@edwardbernays, @farouk, Amazing reflections on meaning and purpose. wow! I agree, there is no “meaning” or “pupose”. I think the purpose of life is to genuinely try to find meaning and purpose, discover there is none, create your own meaning and purpose only to find out thats not the purpose either and go back to trying to find outside meaning and purpose…and so on until ommmmmmmm…..I think this is more of a Western prescription (or personal one) rather than universal

@farouk, “purpose” is a human construct, an idea. You are here because two or more forces combined to create you. The same thing happened to create these forces, and those before them, and before them, and…etc.

Short answer: Cause and effect.
