What is the true purpose of our life here on Earth?

[Dark Mind]

Are we here to fullfill whatever our Earthly desires may be? Should we focus on balancing the condition of mind and body? Or should we focus mainly on the absorption of knowledge to become the greatest thinker of all time? Or should we focus our efforts solely on the bettering of our body? Does any of this even matter though, since we will all one day die, at least until they get that immortality thing down . What are your thoughts on the purpose (not meaning) of life.

I don't think we really have a purpose. We can make some up though, have your own purpose.

I think the purpose of life is to improve efficiency. Like in seeking the grand unified theory & the idea of a short equation that describes everything. That same pursuit of efficiency is our purpose in everything. Don't quarrel, because it wastes energy. Plan ahead, because it may save energy. Get the most from the least. Be efficient.

Roger Wilco. You said, "The purpose of life i would think is to live...and how u define "live" is the meaning."
___I understood you to mean that we each must individually define 'live', & so I meant to ask how you as an individual do so.

___I as an individual said I think 'live' means maximizing efficiency. I hope that clarifies.

i myself just want to use my creativity to my max potential. that's all i really want to do to be satisfied when i'm old and gray.

Turtle,
My personal definition of life is much like your own..."maximum efficency." Life is about liveing every moment to the fullest. (But I am also religious, and i don't wanna start that debate here...) Life is what you put into it.

NO REGRETS!
