The Meaning of Life — Does Life Have a Purpose?

“What is the meaning of life?”

A question that presents itself to all of us time to time again.

As humans we have the blessing, and the curse, to contemplate our own existences.

Why were we born? What is the nature of the Soul? What is the purpose or the meaning to this life?

Now, there are a lot of different theories that have sprung up with the course of time.

From serving the teachings of various gods from various religions, to a more cold, and logical, based thinking of that life is just a matter of survival & reproduction, to a more creative approach that says that the meaning of life is whatever we make of it, to a very free approach that says it’s all about having fun, and anything and everything in between.

The variety of these ideas just shows one thing: We honestly have no idea.

If we knew anything for absolute certain the entire world, or at least the vast majority, would agree on it, but there is not one path that we fully agree on.

Well… not entirely anyway.

What we all do agree on, no matter from which religion you stem or how scientific you are, is that one giant part of life is to be happy.
