Interesting philisopihical question. I've thought about it several times, too. Is there a meaning in life? Or are we just here to live or to be lived? What do I represent as an individual? I'm so small knowing that the universe is infinite. It is, right? Or does it actually stop somewhere? Is that possible? I believe it is infinite. What could be at the end if it wasn't anyways? Now, because of its infinity, there should be at least one copy of me, of each individual. Is my duplicate, in case he exists, part of the meaning of my life, or is it part of my meaning of life?

 

There's so many things I like to think about, even though I'll never be given an answer, at least not during my life. Perhaps there's a clear answer in the future, since science always has a straight explanation for everything, or doesn't it? :p

 

Mind-blowing, right?

 

Now, the meaning of life to me is knowing that I live and creating a future (for me and my future family). Sure you could think why looking at the future. Eventually, we'll all die at some point. Why don't you live in the present, you might ask. Sure, I do live in the present and enjoy all happy occasions, but those who don't look at the future, might miss something to live towards/for, might miss a meaning.

 

So far my philosophical reasoning that just jumped into my mind. :p

Trust me, there is no meaning of life. It's just some evil chemicals botching up the stuff. Nothing more. You might add a bit of physics to this chemistry, voila you get biology. Anyway, call me a nihilist.

            so guys tell me what is one thing that makes life so valuable to us..... ?

Those who didn't hold life valuable, jumped into fires and lion dens and died waaay before reproducing. Thus the genes that made one not hold life valuable lasted for no time. The gene which did hold valuable lasted. That is why you hold life valuable.

 

But I have a more interesting question. How are dumb people like you who slept through biology (and considering biology is the most interesting subject among the three subjects biology, chemistry, and physics, you must have slept through 90% of all classes) still alive? I know the answer, but let's see ya nugs guessing. Entertain me.

Well, I'm pretty sure that there isn't such thing like an objective 'meaning'. The 'meaning' is always a product of human awareness coming from perception, which makes every subject only possible in a concrete world in which everything is only created from the ideas. Well, that's a bit too philosophical I guess.

 

In terms of Darwinism that could be the individual desire to satisfy one's needs, which is of course subjective.
