The Meaning of Life

1 Conversation

Is the meaning of life to follow your predetermined destiny? To navigate through a maze of obstacles placed before you by fate? By God?

Or, is the meaning of life to integrate your many likes, interests, thoughts and people into your true self? Is your true self defined by you or hidden inside since you were born, waiting for you to discover it?

Or is the meaning of life to find that place and time where all you do supports being the you you've yet to discover? And when you do discover you, you stop searching and begin the first day of your fate or your choice?

Or is life simply the culmination of each experience, person, place, and thing you happen accross? Is our collective view as a society the culmination of millions of random events and experiences had by each soul who's breathed on earth? And is there no point to it all? Is the true purpose to simply be, then cease to be?
