What is the point of life???? What good does it do??? REALLY??? What difference does any of it make?

I find myself questioning the very same thing at times. The only answer to this lies in what you believe you are placed in this world for. This life is truly what you make of it. Personally, I would like to think that everyone is placed in this world to make some kind of impact on another%26#039;s life. The truth is the only happiness in life can be found when you are content and the only good in life comes in what you, yourself, can share with the world.

It%26#039;s a test of your faith. You must find something to believe in and the world will try to tear down your beliefs. Life%26#039;s a test of your strength and conviction. Do I do what I believe in or do I give in to the pressure? Do I do things the right way or take the easy way out? Sometimes there%26#039;s no right answer but we have to do the best we can. Believe and be strong.

nothing, none, none at all.
Reply:One of the problems with being from an affluence society is that we lack real challenges. You need something that pits your physical, mental and spiritual abilities against a real obstacle. Once you experience fighting for your life or the lives of others your vision clears. Go overseas and help out in a crisis situation. Your survival instincts kick in and you see how precious life is. Learn what it is to go hungry and enjoy food as never before. Spend time with those that have nothing but have more moments of pure joy that your life provides. You will not find your answers in a land of plenty. Go work with the homeless in a country without welfare. You will make a difference and find out more about life than any of us could ever explain.
Reply:the point in life is to realise who you are and create the best you that you can .It is essential to the people around you even if you dont think so .there is a reaction for everything you do so you do make a difference right?
Reply:sounds like someone needs God in their life
Reply:If you think this is the only one and don%26#039;t want to buy into the heaven-hell explanations, there is no point.





As more and more science of life discovers that the ancient Indians and the Chinese had a lot of intelligence and wisdom and actual knowledge of reality that we are just now confirming, you could consider that their conviction that life is a never-ending cycle also has validity. If it does, then the point is to progress beyond this karmic hell-hole of the universe, or keep getting better at helping the miserable, deluded souls caught here. The better you get at a game, the more fun it is.

Reply:Why should life have a point? But then, you ask yourself %26#039;why not killing myself?%26#039; Well actually Death is not a proven thing. So then u wouldnt be able to talk about a %26#039;difference%26#039; cause maybe it would be the same. But if u hurt yourself trying to kill yourself, then maybe it would change your life into worse. So then, this question has no answer...And you shouldnt really ask yourself this. There are tones of other a lot better questions.
Reply:Generally speaking, this is such an important question for any thoughtful person to ask that I gave you a star. I have to say, though, that it is one of the most frequently asked questions on YA, and many in the community have thoughtfully typed their brains out (and their fingers numb) in response to answer it many times already, before you asked it above.





In fact, there are more than 119,000 Qs %26amp; As on YA dealing with %26quot;meaning of life%26quot; right now (see link to them below). I did a search in the field in the green bar at top of page here (%26quot;Search for questions%26quot; field), as should you (and everyone) before they post a question, no matter how good a question, because very frequently there have been awesome, fastastic, and numerous answers already provided by the community.





Granted, a few of the Qs%26amp;As in the search I did ask about Star Trek %26amp; Vulcans %26amp; meaning of life, but I did look through the first few screens of the search return and most are straight up human life %26amp; meaning.





Please go look there!
