As an individual. irregardless of your experiences in life, age, gender or status this moment, what for you is LIFE? You may find the question very profound but share your thoughts in the simplest sense.
In my case, as a young adult life for me is just starting to unfold. Just grecently graduated and started to work in the real world and its now teaching me that LIFE is hard. Its hard in every sense: financially and spiritually. Financially in the sense its hard to live on a payday-to-payday basis since money runs our world. Spiritually in this case since as you try to live your life everyday, you realize that there are many questions that needs to be answered.

in your case what is actually the thing that will make you happy? if you achieve it, can you really say you have found your purpose/ meaning in life?

yes, life is indeed a gift given to us once that is why we must live it to the fullest. Not all of us are given a second chance in life, so I guess everyday we just have to life life to the fullest

Life is like a mystery novel that is written down only after you have read it.

For me the importance of life is to live it to the full. Perhaps the true meaning of life is to find peace with God. Also, life is happiness, we are all trying to trying to get happiness of ourselves in our every motive, earning money, or either being fame, etc.

Hi Dear Redandwhitescar! This question of yours is too deep to answer! But then since we have been blessed wit the life of a Human being amongst so many living beings on the surface of this earth, which is the most evolved form of life today surviving on the surface of the earth, I think we should use it for a good cause! I think we should do a piece of justice which is expected from us as an human being to the mother nature to keep it run in unison and harmony with other living creatures on the earth. If we can shun our selfish attitude and develop consideration for others and respect their rights and mights ,then half of the problems will be solved in one's life! Thus for me life is Living happily and letting Others to live happily!
Now, I think I can expand Life as:
[b]L= Love others, Let others live, Laugh and be Merry,Learn on regular Basis,
I= Intimate relationship with people around, Inspire Others to be good, Interact with people with love and affection
F= Friendship with every one, Freedom for every one, Fair game and Fair deal for every one,
E =Entertain others, Educate others, Escape from Greed, Enact a Role Model, enable other to [/b]love each other!E =
That is all I think about the life when it comes to me!
Thanks for the discussion I liked participating in it!

Basically, I think it is to be happy and make others happy. And this may mean very different things to different people since we all value different things.

The meaning of life for me, I'm here as a spiritual being living a human being. By going through all kinds of experience to make the soul grow. In the meantime enjoy happiness together with family, friends. Learn to manage how to do well in different situations of life. Yes life is hard, when it comes to make a good living. As you said we're living in a world where money rules much. You have regular monthly expenses for clothes, food, rent an apartment, mortgage on a house, insurances, health care cost to keep your body in wellness, study has its expenses. We live in a very complex world. You need to have certain knowledge in the high technology world to manage the daily living. In it all you are an indivudual who are hoping for happiness and success in all your doing. Would like to travel the world. I have through ageing developed my patience. Always try to see the good in everyone and everything.
