The Riddle of Life

Denmark
February 6, 2007 8:38pm CST
We are born, we grow up and we die. We wake up, we eat, we mate and we sleep. Is this really it? Ive heard so many talk of the meaning of life, and no one has ever given me an answer of what it should be, except of course carying on ur specie. So I ask you know, can you tell me, are there any reason for it all? - and if there is, what it is? For i must admit that im seriously starting to doubt it...

I can answer this one in one sentence.... LIFE IS WHAT YOU MAKE IT. Thats the answer to the riddle of life. We make our own decisions and choose the path we take. If you want a good life you have to go out there and grab it. Make the most of every day and live each day like it was your last. Because one day it will be!

Life is a gift given to us.. To let us know how we live, believe, nurture whatever is here. We are very special that given this chance to live and eventually be judged to know where really we are destined.

The meaning of life is what you make it to be. You give your own meaning to it. If you believe that life is something precious and beautiful, it's because that's how you perceive it to be. Thus, my meaning of life may be different from your meaning of life. If you also seriously doubt the meaning of life, then I guess you have to seriously check out where your life could be leading to -- hopefully not in the wrong direction, my friend! Haha.

This is why we have religions. Because they are the only things that can offer any kind of answer at all. Carrying on the species just doesn't fulfill my desire to know somehow. But I do find comfort in the Bible, and particularly in the teaches of Jesus Christ. I know that most people today will find this all too "Christian" and all too much. I know because i have felt that way before too. I ain't gonna preach or anything to you, because that's what puts people off most of the time. I ain't no church goer and i don't care much for the Pope or his cronies... but I do love Jesus. It's a personal thing though. I suppose it's the oldest question of all.. And maybe we as a race won't find the answer because we will have killed ourselves... Great question dude.
