Perhaps I should have been more clear. I wasn't refering to the obscure meaning of life, god, or whatever.

I meant what is it that gives your life meaning?

From a universal point of view I think the purpose of life is to find out life's purpose. All other purposes like wanting to be the best at something etc are very temporary and insignificant in comparison.

But to answer your question about what drives us/me I think it's my dreams and aspirations. Working hard to accomplish them as well as noting the consequences of failing to acquire them is what motivates me.

Ultimately, are not all things in life temporary? Think of life as an infinite series (calculus here) with each goal and experience summing to the end (limit as n goes to infinity)... it approaches "life's purpose", in essence equaling "life's purpose". But, having reached this limit you are also at the end, life is over. The knowledge of said meaning is lost, all is lost. And calculating this as a true limit, you never really reach the sum/meaning...

Do I sound high? lmao.

Puff Puff pass....stop hoging it all to yourself menz. lol

OT: What I was tryin to get at was a personal belief that "we" as a collective are enbarked on a jurney to find out life's purpose and that the individual/personal purpose is insignificant because the individual him/herself is temporary. I'm going way too much into this I know

Please explain.
From what I understand:
The collective whole of the earth is embarked on a journey (How is this so?) to find life's purpose. And any one individual is insignificant due to limited time alive. (Please explain this.)

I go to a Christian school atm and I have had a few talks about heaven, life here and after and all that jazz. To be honest: I still have no clue at all what the point is.
There's so much I don't understand, so much I don't know. I think I'm just gonna try to get the most out of everything and not think too much.

If we had a definite purpose in life, then we wouldn't have stayed here :/
