What is the point in living or the meaning of life?

[12 year old]

Please someone explain what the point of living is if theres nothing to live for

[RexGreeley]

IMHO, there is no point to being alive - life is simply what you make of it. The sky's the limit, or you can live in the gutter...it's up to you!

@Imjustalostgirl there would be no point in living if there was nothing to live for. Depression makes us think that, don't it. I can't remember who, but someone once said, that people who love – and I don't mean romance, I mean real love, like the one you have for your children, which you put into action every day – never seem to ask for a reason to live.

@Imjustalostgirl “Remember to look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Try to make sense of what you see and wonder about what makes the universe exist. Be curious. And however difficult life may seem, there is always something you can do and succeed at. It matters that you just dont give up.” Stephen Hawking
for me it is

@Imjustalostgirl until you find something you are willing to die for you have nothing to live for.

@Imjustalostgirl Finding something you’re willing to die for doesn’t necessarily give you a reason to live. I’m willing to die for plenty. Doesn’t mean it gives me a reason to live. Sometimes a reason to live doesn’t need to be complicated. Could be something as simple as “I want to live just to live.” Or maybe it’s a person that gives you that reason. Or maybe it’s your work. Or maybe you can find a cause. Just because you don’t have a reason to live doesn’t mean you should die. Maybe you should just search for a reason to live. That’s a reason in and of itself.

the meaning of life is to fuck as much as possible for some

@Imjustalostgirl
there are a lot of great suggestions in this thread! plenty of reasons to live :))

personally, i think that finding different ways to make yourself & the people around you happy is a wonderful goal too. life spent doing things that make you happy & enjoying the company of people who make you feel loved is definitely not gonna be a life wasted~

I often ask the same question. I'm reminded of the lyrics in a Bob Dylan song ".. only thing I knew how to do was to keep on keeping on"

I'm in that place tonight ...

@HotSufff @Imjustalostgirl Is mine. Step away crusty old guy and I won’t have you admitted to the nursing home.

Ive watched a video clip of people jumping off the golden bridge. Its chilling ..
Taking own life is a deep subject. I guess there are many reasons that drive people to commit it. If you really didn't had a reason to live you would be dead .. hope not. I came here for that subject cuase i want to but not. Sure if the situation demands it.. sorry
