What gives your life meaning?

I find lots of meaning through ironic situations that occur daily. I laugh a lot at people's expenses.

Nearly nothing depresses or anger me for more than a few hours, and I'd like to keep it that way. I'm not an optimist, nor am I a go-getter.

Something that gives my life meaning as well is the thought that perhaps every event is predetermined and based off a series of previous occurances. I don't believe there are accidents. "Random" is a term we use to describe that which we can't explain because we can't predict highly complex patterns yet, and maybe it's determined that there will always be things that are meant not to be known. Regardless, everything happens for a reason, and everything is sequential. Because of this, everything can be interconnected. I'd rather get too deep into my personal philosophy, so I'll leave you with the above vague description.

I don't know that there is some higher deity, nor does it really change the outcome of my life, because really I've had no choice since its beginning.

In my spare time, I like to program, probably because it makes me feel like a god in the limited domain of a computer. I often attempt game development, but usually this results in failure. Either way, it's fun to learn and do.

I exist. That is meaningful enough.

the little things. like how the world is upside down in the beads of rain on the car window

my friends...my family...football....lol

Work.









My life's empty.

Writing. Enjoy living. Band.

A mixture of things really.

Music is definately a big part of my life. I wouldn't be whole, I wouldn't be me without it. Literature is another one. I can almost always be found reading. My friends are also really important to me, and my family as well.

GFF brings meaning to my life...j/k.

But to be serious. I really don't know if I have anything that brings to my life per ce. Maybe its a conglomeration of things. If I really had to be specific, I would say other people. Other people bring meaning to my life. In everything I do, I try to think of how it will interfere with and/or affect someone elses life and plans. If it hinders someone else too much, I generally don't do it. I find that everything I do can be traced back two the basic saying of "don't do anything to hurt anyone". Yah, so its other people who give meaning to my life. If it wasn't for them, I would just do whatever.

Enjoying life is the first reason... As well the idea that you might mean something for anyone could help me get out of bed. and of course: 'A day without laughing is a day without living...'

What wakes me up in the morning is that I'm not able to sleep long. As well as I wonder if today is the day that I die, how I will die, who else did and how they did.

I'm starting to find the whole concept of death fun or something similar to that. Not that I'm all suicidal, I try to enjoy whatever amount of time is meant for me. You might as well too, it's not like you're going to live forever.

People... I love meeting people, seeing the world move. Not just people, all of life and other parts of the world that just make me look at and say "Wow..."

I guess the fact that I am able to do things like go to school beyond high school and knowing I can make something of myself. And I live to get up and write. I love to write. And read...and my friends. I love my friends. They're moreso my family.

Writing for a living. Wasn't sure that it'd happen, but it did and I kinda feel like I've arrived. Had to skip states to do it, though. What a cliche.

My family,friends,pets, and most definitely OZZ and Albel. They keep me going.

My family is always there for me,esp. my daddy. ;d Leo,my maltese, is like my best friend. OZZ has helped me through so many things. Knowing that Im going to get to see him,that he loves me no matter what, or just hearing his voice helps me feel better. He's stuck by me so much. And of course Albel,the little bundle of cuteness, I know he is going to love me no matter what. ;d

Several things, but mainly just to see what the new day will bring. Will it be awesome? Will it suck? Will it be a release date for Spore? Will it be a penny on the sidewalk? A new song on the radio? The next episode of that awesome show? Who knows! Something happens every day, I just can't wait to find out what.

Nothing gives my life meaning anymore. I just live, because I'm alive. I see no reason behind anything that I do...or I'm just depressed again.

I still can and want to wake up in the morning just because I know life is precious, and I want to live it fully and truly.

Besides, I've got so much I want to do or to finish. I'm writing a novel right now, and it's still far from being finished. I also draw everyday (hopefully I can draw a manga). I also compose music. Ther are still other things I like to do, not as daily routines, but as life's essence. Why should I abandon these things?

Another day alive means another day closer to the future release of Final Fantasy XIII. I'm just kidding. But it used to be like that for me in the summer. Wake up really early and play games all day.

Now I live to go to school. I love the classes I'm taking and the peers I interact with. Another day in school is another day to meet new people and see familiar faces.

Well..

What gives my life meaning.....

I guess.. it's the thought of a bright and happy future -

At least at the moment.. I have the feeling that everyone is leaving - (not moving away to another city - more like.. they don't want to accompany me anymore)

Furthermore.. I used to like composing .. and photographing ... since there's nobody who would share my joy in it.... I lose it... and I end up alone .. just sitting.. and thinking about life and what I could do to change this situation... and that makes everything worse...

too bad -

Why should life have a meaning? Why do people think live owes us a meaning? I've often thought about the question myself but not an answer. I could come up with a list of 6 things but against the backdrop of the cosmos it seems extremely narrow. The best answer I can give and the only one that makes any sense is, I live for life. I live to see what the future will bring.

Why, doesn't that means you want to live for basically nothing; just depend on hands of Fate? People make goals and try to achieve them everyday...not just to get by and see the future.

Don't you wish to make your own future? It's better than only sitting and waiting.
