if you are single and not married, you feel that life is just trying to pass time . and so that is why i make sure that i would do a lot of things to keep me entertained. although i have my own spiritual belief also. but besides that spiritual beliefs or without that life seems like meaningless specially if you don't have any relationship or any good going on in life. i have not been successful in career or in any thing. i know some of my friends share the same problem, not having good career and being single again. so that is why staying at home makes me feel life is meaningless when i get out sometimes that i get to feel life has a purpose once again.

Hi hotsummer, We are here in this world because we have a purpose in our life. At our birth, someone smiled upon us -it's God and our parents. Like we are pre-destined of something and the point of living is to find out what is your destiny, what is your purpose why we are here? soul search and believe that you have a mission in life and never give up trying to find out who you are actually and what's your role that God wants you to be. Every life has a purpose and this is something not meaningless. have a great day.

Don,t let the ups and downs we go through in life water down your passion in love, you can be married or single but never fulfilled in life. It is just a choice we have to make and enjoy every single opportunity life gives us.

Hello hotsummer! I wonder how old are you? Would you like a friend to talk too? I am here willing to listen. That is a nice title discussion. Sad but it is true that we sometimes ask ourselves. I am married, have three kids but I get to a point to ask this myself. I suggest that you look at brighter side of life, appreciate small things and just enjoy evry minute of it though sometimes we have no reason to enjoy. Always carry a smile and always think good. Always pray and talk to God. Make HIM your bestfriend.

I'm single, not sure whether in the future I'll be married or not but I don't think living as a single is different than living as a married person, both has it owns purpose. I used to be a dark person but time changes me (I hit my head 4 months ago, thanks God I survived and I feel like a new born). It used to bother me a lot because I don't have any relationship but live is not just about relationship between boyfriend and girlfriend, husband and wife. I try to see this life from different angles, I have failed in one stage of life but I still have another chance to try to be a better person and reach my goal. When I don't get what I want, I think we can try again or maybe that thing is never meant for me but there is something else better wait for us, it waits for us to discover it. I failed my career not only once but twice, I failed my education but I started over again, I don't have any talents but Im willing to learn because I believe success is 2% talent 98% hard effort. Life is just another challenge. That's right, if you go out of your home and look out at other people's conditions you will see that your life is actually not that bad, you just need to discover the positive things of your life and eliminated the negative things then live your life.

Hi, Why are you so sad and feeling life meaningless? There are many things to do in our life. There are many people who are more sad than us. I think if you are sad then you should try to help others to make them happy and that will make you happy and your life would become meaningful. You should be optimistic and don't lose self respect. Be happy and make others happy.

So is life .For some its like a bed of roses for some its full of struggles. But i feel spirituality has nothing to do with singleness.Their are so many ways to keep yourself bizy .You can take up so many small work .In free time u search for a simple life partner.I am sure slowly your problem will be solved with time.You must give it a try for sure.ALL THE BEST.
