The meaning of life

Over the last few days, I have been seriously thinking about life, and if it serves any purpose to be alive.

Life is unnatural. What I mean is that you have to change the default settings of nature to stay alive. Nobody loves toiling, but you have to toil to stay alive. You got to eat and do other unpleasant things (like gym) to stay healthy. You need regular medication to be alive. You got to cut your hair to look good. You have to wear shoes otherwise you hurt your feet. The default settings of humankind don’t match the environment we live in. You ate ever fighting nature to stay alive. To stay with unpleasant and ugly people.

After some point, nature wins and you die. People mourn you and immortalise you in various ways, but you’re gone. All your struggles and joys count no more, you carry nothing with you, just scars from an unforgiving life. And you leave offsprings to suffer through life before eventually loosing the battle to nature. And the cycle continues forever.

No wonder the bible says that the dead are better than the living. But better that these are those who never were.

Your life is the universe trying to experience existence from a subjective view point. The whole is always larger than the sum of its parts. Also as above so below.

Unless you didn’t read it. I love the last part ,come from the book of "Ecclesiastes"

Are there things that ‘never were’?

Thanks for that clarification… Nilikuwa nimefloat kiasi.

Wharrathis, ? Why are you trying to explain /define life ?

Always trust in the bible teachings and you will appreciate life.

It reaches a point one wonders why get stressed up accumulating wealth.
But my Almighty keeps me focused.

very nice insight

I do like your thoughts.
Why if the god who is so loving and caring would he not reveal in an undoutable way that which awaits us after our demise?
If our destiny is determined and known even before we are born…that makes us robots.
Why give me free will then when i choose you punish me
I have 1000 why

The meaning of life is you. Life is energy and we just transform into different forms of this energy through birth and death…maybe other ways we shall know of when we die.:D:D:D

Deep!

I think some of these things are too complex for the human mind to understand, methinks you just need to understand your current environment and what it demands, and try your best to get the cheat codes if time allows.

Its the duty of everyone with a life to give it meaning. Religion wont. Life has no meaning of its own.
