Of course I have my own version. But who gives a damn? No, really. What's it gonna change if I give my opinion. Of course nothing. Anyway, just wanted to say how funny it is to see that most ppl are so sure their view is the right one. Rather than being undecided and keeping an ever-open mind. Read a lot, and be ready to adjust and refine your thoughts and ideas. And keep looking, of course, never give up or think you already know it all. Cause that's just sad.
If there IS an ultimate meaning, it can't be very easy to find and recognize, otherwise it'd have been discovered by many simultaniously and spreaded all over the world. But apparently it hasn't. Just dunno what makes ppl think they'll find it in this topic. wink2.gif But I guess most just come here to tell the world how THEY see the matter, and mission accomplished. Anyway, most, if not all, of your versions are here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meaning_of_life Quite a good read. Replaces everything that's been said in this topic, I think.

its simple, and the meaning of life is contained in one word:
                                                                                     CONSUME.
but in doing so, remember, everything is better when it is shared.

Hey ya'll! What is the meaning of life? It's one of life's biggest questions and no one knows the answer to it (I think). So what do you people on this board think the meaning of life is? I think the meaning of life is hard work. Well, please reply.

Yeah i dont think people all have the same perseption of life.I think its about earning knowledge and love and respect and haveing fun as much as possibly with minimal tragedies.
The world is just an endless circle that has no begining and no end for without a begining there is no end of the world.

A Circle starts with a begining wich is actualy the end,Although that end is realy the begining wich is the end.

Makes no sense does it?Neither does life as we know it.

I think the meaning of life is to discover ones own purpose and then try to see it though no matter what.

MAYBE THERE ISN'T MEANING OF LIFE SURE EVERYONE HAS THERE OWN OPINION OF WHAT THE MEANING IS BUT THEY'RE JUST OPINIONS. MAYBE THE WAY YOU LIVE YOUR LIFE OR WANT TO LIVE INFLUENCES THE WAY YOU THINK THE MEANING IS.

Hmmm that sounds hard...perhaps the meaning of my life is to be lazy.

I was going to look up the definition of the word life and post it, as a sarcastic way of saying that the definition is as much as we are going to be able to find out about the meaning of life.

But, I ran across this wiki entry, and I have to say it was really interesting and informative. Enjoy!
