    I don't think so. Listen to "This is Water" on YouTube by David Foster Wallace. 22 minutes well spent.

    What a riiculous statement. I have worked out what it is, for me and it's very simple. The meaning of life. IE why are we here, right? Simple, refer to Darwin. Survival of the species is our collective and individual meaning and purpose.

    I'm afraid too many think there is an individual plan just for them and they have a predetermined role to play. Of course most of these are believers, but not all. Can you imagine the task of writing a plan for every single human being. Who would do that and how could they d that. Much f lif is simply choices made ornot made and accidents. Not that many actually plan and follow it through.

    What could be more meaningful than creating life? For me? Nothing.

    Lennon said it best in the song "Beattiful Boy". 'Take my hand, Life's what happens to you while you're making other plans?"

    Oh very deep. The reason you know nothing about it is simple. You don't have the capacity to think it through and wouldm't know truth if you fell over it. Go back to reading comics, more your style. Meaning of life indeed!! Ism't life itself enough to give you meaning, just being alive is another way of saying that is the meaning of life. And there ARE accidents, every day in everyboy's life. And you clearly moronic.

    I think it's about appreciating what you have because there is always someone worse off.

    And that came from a work of fiction as you well know. It was a joke and still is.

    how about you mind your own business, i made a mistake in the sentence, stop picking fights with people, your age on here suggests you are a little to old to be fighting with some my age.
