Meaning of life?
donald1:
there is no "meaning" to life. just enjoy it while you can, cuz ultimately, in the very end, nothing will have ever mattered. i'm talking about when the universe runs out of all energy and vaporises into oblivion and nothing will exist anymore. one billion years from now, if intelligent life still exists, nobody will know anything about you, anime, or anything to do with Earth as it is now.. so, enjoy it while you can.

Not exactly true. Many things do matter and help society, technology, humanity, family etc, etc evolve.
Nothing will matter forever tho.

However human beings, because we are generally unable to cope with the unknown, seek to 'create' purpose and meaning in life to overcome our innate fear that everything is in itself worthless and pointless. While created, and thus false, such things aren't necessarily unnecessary nor wrong; just lacking in innate worth. A self-fulfilling prophecy if you will.

I pretty much think the exact same way, except I can't word it quite as well (to be precise, I wouldn't even know where to begin if I was to explain it myself :P) So thank you for that ;D
Hiero:
The meaning of life is to have a life of meaning.
In the post a few above on fearing the unknown..that's a factor found throughout life in all areas. Good point brought up.
You can look at life as something just to get done with, or to further the experience and lives of others to come.

Living is meaning of life.
I like to relax and do simple things, reading books and watching anime.
