Point of Life

---

whats the point of life; Life is like a big video game, all the things you smell, feel etc. is just electrical currents sent up to your brain (like a video game) I'm suiciadel at all it's just I thought of that while I watching "Matrix" (im far behind in some movies) this is just a random thought

Honestly, I feel there is no point in life. But thats just what I think

I meant to say Im Not suciadle

well its not exactly a video game cause a video gam is something played by some user.... and that user cannot feel what the person he's playing can feel.... the point of life is to feel certain emotions and help the world or help somebody else... watch the movie "Simon Birch" it'll explain my thinking

I've seen Simon Burch at school and I think there are very few people who would act like Simon Burch (talking about how he acts, not his physical size or anything)..Point of Life ? Still trying to figure out, don't really see one though

same i had to watch it at school... but i think that he's right... i really do think everybody has some certain plan for them to achieve... wether its saving a bus load of kids or makeing somebody feel better... i mean i really think that every action has an effect that impact someone's life to cause them to affect something else...

I don't remember the movie that well all I remember is kinda how he looks and something about the bus.... and if he said everyone has a plan... that might be true, the question is if everyone can and will fulfill that plan

well its kinda like destiny... you destined you die and your destined to live at some point... there's no changing it... so everybody's plan is like their destiny

The point of life is to ponder on the point of life.

All life is, is a period of time. What you do in that period of time contributes to life's fullness. If you always do whats right in your mind, your life will be complete.

In reply to: The purpose of life is to give and receive love Quoting myself from the other thread

no one loves in this world mandude.the purpose of life is to be ur rents worker. hahaha

A lot of people do love, CR. There are so many people who do things for other people without expecting anything back. I think there is love all around.

Yeah, when I was in 4th grade, we learned that things only had their color because of the light being reflected onto them (and that our brain decodes these light frequencies) AND that these objects were really upside down when they entered our eyes! We also learned that sound was really nothing but vibrations. Early since then, I came to the realization that the world was nothing like it is, and that it's how OUR BRAINS perceive it. Since then, I've been wondering whether or not I was really living my real life, since in theory, someone could have me hooked up to a machine. LOL I remember turning around and going "HAH" in case the nasty scientists were surprised by my reaction to a certain thing, or that maybe I could catch a patch of the world they didn't 'code' carefully. To my surprise :P in 7th grade, THE MATRIX CAME OUT! :P

The Matrix itself is really quite the interesting movie. It wasn't just made up! In reality, it was derived from Gnostic teachings, (some psychic stuff... about blah, and how the world is not really real, or whatever, or that there's a larger world out there).

Anyway, Life is just a game. It's like you're in a movie. Your life is your life. You decide what you want. Since it is your brain deciding everything, and decoding everything, you decide how you react to everything, you decide what your life will be like, it's your life :wink:

People have sad lives because they perceive in them being sad. People have happy live because they perceive them as happy. It's all in how you view it! So my point on what life is, is that it's just one big game, your point on what life is may be different, but we're all correct since we all have different lives...

There's a book that changed my view on life. For anyone that's interested (it's a REALLY good book, will help anyone having trouble, or give anyone a different view on life itself!):

Illusions: The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah
by Richard Bach

*waves* Have fun.

yeah its too long now... i'll read it when it gets shorter the first paragraph is quite interesting! can wait till that trime gets around... wow i've looked at that post and i was like aright i'll read this some other time and that was like 2 weeks ago

but see that all the negative out lok on life try this

which is better reaching heaven or living with those who love you and wnat to be with you and going to a game with them then find out that your playing go on the feel score an amazing goal while a sports illustrated photographer is right there and took the shot and it was places on sports illustrated front cover then going home and listening to your messages and you have 10 messages each from a manager of some prestigious soccer team asking you to join their team

I go with Unforgetto's version and answer.

thats because it doesn't relate to you...and plus i'm not a good writer and i cant tranistion things as well as unforgetto can

i would say there is no point to life i mean if u dont belive in heaven and hell then i guess it is better than being nothing. sometimes i wonder why i do it all i mean i am in school and i wonder why i work so hard to get a good job so that i can work some more so i can have money but then i die and it may not matter how much money i had or what life i lived. i mean u work your whole life and never sit down and take a break then u have lots of money but it is just money.i mean my history teacher once told us that he read in the newspaper that the ave. homless peson make more than minumum wage but u cant really tell cause they blow it all on pot but anyway getting back to the point i guess life is just a thing thats there and the point is to be caught up in moments like when u win a game or ace a math test or tell someone off whatever it is u enjoy it is the point of life to be happy to feel utter joy to know what love feels like to know what it feels like to be be in so deep but somehow fix it to know the feeling making some one happy so i guess i would say the point of life is to know what it is like to feel i once watched a movie in latin class about this guy in ancient rome that had a quest but hte point was that the gods controlled him and maybe if that is how it works that we are just a big board game and each god takes a side and controlls a religion group or somthing then maybe that is the point of life to provide entertanment to gods while each war is a great defeat of one god k know i am just rambling about god any way maybe there is no meaning of life and u can either choose to care and make up a reason or just not care and ....... spend the time contimplating somthing else
