      I don’t think there has to be a meaning – where would the meaning come from? It’s amazing enough just to be here, to look around and to try to figure out how it all works. Perhaps when we put the pieces together will discern a picture which makes more sense; you could call that a meaning I suppose.

      Hi Jacob399

      I don’t believe there is a meaning. But I do think it is important to be kind and to do your best – in my view that is the best route to a kind of satisfaction or sense of fulfilment.

      Oh, and try to live and enjoy every moment as it happens – you never know what tomorrow brings.

      I’m not sure that life has to have a meaning!
      Many philosophers have spent all their lives trying to answer this question, but I certainly haven’t made any progress in finding an answer………Let me know if you get anywhere.
