      Describe where you get meaning in life from. In one sentence

      Depending on the replies I get, I may turn this into an art project.

      Its nice to step back once in a while and question what you want to get out of this brief visit into the realm of experience,

      Lets see now!

      Our existence is so wretched and its end is death.

      i derive meaning from the expanded ignorance of all that is stupidity and take great comfort in the fact that no one is wrong, and everyone is right

      To be perfectly honest, I'm not sure I see any meaning to life.
      April Ryan is my friend,
      Every sorrow she can mend.
      When i visit her dark realm,
      Does it simply overwhelm.

      i don't believe life has any inherent meaning

      but dont' dispair!
      wouldn't it be boring if everyone had the same meaning in life?

      we are privileged to have the freedom to create our own meaning.
      or not.

      Life is a game about the differential survival of replicating entities, and by that I mean procreation.

      I take pleasure in life due to how my brain is made. I have no religious beliefs, and understand fully that everything I feel is only due to evolution trying to make me procreate. I simply choose to not think about this fact, and it has no bearing on how I should live out my life. For this reason, I enjoy life for the same reasons that other people due: fun, joy, love, excitement, surprise etc., in short, feelings. I would be lying to myself if I were to pretend that there is any meaning to life, as I have no proof or reason to believe there is.

      edit: this might sound incredibly depressing. It is not. The truth is, I don't think too much about it. What I wrote is simply the conclusion I always come to, when I give thought so questions like these.

      Possessing life is meaning enough for me, providing me with the opportunity of experience, giving me... myself.

      That actually helps a lot, in a weird way, because once you set your expectations that low, the weight of the world is suddenly lifted off your shoulders and you remember what really matters in life.

      and fuck your "In one sentence" crap.

      Life has no meaning, but that's not a problem, unless you're dumb.

      Who's to say it's false hope? Just because lots of bad things happen in the world doesn't mean that good things never happen. That's blind pessimism.
