One Eyed Pirate	putting the whole "religion-GOD" thing aside, i think that the purpose of living is to evolve. You live and learn, then reproduce, teaching the next generation about your mistakes. Eventually someday, sometime, we will be able to explore the Galaxy and beyond, who konws what awaits us. Must walk to be able to fly. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Daddy's Little Girl	Nobody knows what the point of living is its just different for everyone. I think everyone is brought into this workd to help others and figure out what their purpose in life is. It isn't always easy and it may not be known right away but you just have to live for what you feel and help who you can. Everyone feels like they want their lives to end at somepoint but it will get better you just have to give it time. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Neomaxizoomedweebie	Creation began with you, God. Before creation God is a void pure existence. Nothing existed before came into existence. When you (God) got the whim to know your Self the entire universe unfurled itself as you, now as a soul, entered the illusion of space, time, matter and energy and started evolving consciousness to know your Self. The human form is latent in all forms, because God is seeking consciousness and that can only be completed in a human form. Who am I? God in the beginning of creation asks "who am I" and becomes infinitely conscious and unconscious. The infinite unconscious can't overlap infinite consciousness and has no other recourse than to slowly evolve through countless forms that creates the universe where consciousness is completed in the human form. Then God in the state of as a soul in human form reincarnates countless times until He remembers His question, "who am I?" and starts the journey inward and ends in God getting the answer "I am God". He merges with his initial infinite consciousness He created at the beginning of creation. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Yes / No

heyteach	I've been there before myself. What's the point? Well you mentioned losing loved ones and part of the message is not just the loss which is real and great and not something we "just get over," but that we had LOVED ONES. There ARE good things in life and the good things, like the bad things, shall pass. What IS of value and eternal is our relationship with God. Part of how we experience that relationship is with other people because God is about relationships. You feel terrible now and I'm sorry about that. It's OK to post here and seek an answer, but this is a situation where you really need real live flesh and blood folks IN your life. You need to connect with people who care about you and as soon as you can, you need to reach out to help others. You should see a doctor--yes, you sound depressed, but there can be medical things which contribute to this. You probably, and probably because this is a valid rule of thumb, need a better diet, more sleep, more exercise, and a lot more involvement in positive social networks--can be your family, your friends, even what you do at work. The cliche of the glass half empty or full is true--it's at the halfway point. We CHOOSE whether we see the loss or the potential and then we choose how we react to that. God bless. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Peach	the point is all the beauty and love that fills in where the bad stuff leaves off, the point is to make it through the suffering stronger and better and then help others make it through their suffering in turn. God and love and beauty is everywhere if you look for it, and that's all the point I need. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Diane M	I understand what you are saying. I sometimes think the same way. But that is life. The only thing that you can hold on to at times are some good things...good memories, people that have touched your life in a positive way, people that you have loved. Nothing is promised for forever. You can almost add beauty to something by accepting that it is temporary. Enjoy what you have, who you have loved, and most importantly who you are. Don't worry about the future, it's out of our hands. Love and Best Wishes Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Darklighter	Life is a journey whose destination is uncertain. The point is not where you are going, but what you see and learn along the way. In life, there will be happiness and joy, but we could not experience either without sorrow and pain. Each exists only in relation to the other. Seek out the good things in life, wherever you find them. Dwell not on the sadness you find, for that leads to depression and despair. Despair leads to anger, anger to rage, rage to pain and sadness. And so the cycle continues if left unchecked. I know children who have faced death in the prime of their youth, and yet they were some of the happiest kids I have ever known. Fighting for their lives, they looked around and saw reasons to be happy. They saw the courage of others, fighting for their lives, and found the courage to fight for their own. They lost friends, as I have, to diseases like Leukemia. (My friend, she was 12 years old.) They could have given up the fight, and followed the friends they had lost. They could have given up. I could have given up, for I was one of those kids. I made a choice. I chose to be happy. Sometimes happiness is a choice. It's not easy. Sometimes it seems as if the world around you is doing its best to break you. You have to be strong. You have to fight for it. And when you feel like there's no reason to keep fighting, THAT is when you need to fight for it the most. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

~♥♥amber♥♥~	You need to see a Doctor. You might have depression. Think about the good things in between! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Joel D	The point of living is just that, to live. Your just focusing on the negatives and you cant do that. I know that if I die, I don't want people to think about me dieing, I want them to think about how I lived. That's like if you do one thing and people judge you by that action from then on. My death is like 0.0000001 percent of my life. You should think about 1 or even 10 or a hundred specific point in your life when you think about who you are. You are the sum of your life experiences. Your thoughts, dreams, and actions. That's the point of going to college and getting a good job. You can make enough money that you can ease off of the work and just have fun. I try to have as much fun as possible. You only get one life and you shouldn't squander it by thinking about bad things that happen and the fact your going to die. You should accept that those things are going to happen and that there is nothing you can do about it. What you can do something about is how you look at life and how your going to live it. Do like me and take pride in small accomplishments like working hard on something and be appreciated for it or doing something for someone without expecting anything in return. Take pride in getting a good grade when you worked for it. Look for the things in your life that make you happy and if you can't find 50 times more things to be happy about that to be sad about then maybe you should take a look at your attitude and your action and see if there is something you can do to fix it. There are many ways to do that. You can feel better about yourself just by dressing up in some nicer clothes and cleaning your living area. You'll feel proud about accomplishing this and for looking good and you'll be able to feel proud if anyone looks at your environs. Also, tell someone special in your life that you love them and appreciate them. Mother, Father, boyfriend, etc... This will not only make their day, but yours when you see the look on their face. Good luck and smile. ; ) Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

justMe	I,m so sorry for your pain. I felt that way when I lost my dad and then a year later I lost my brother. BUT, I still have a mom who needs me and a sister I love dearly .My daughter and grandchildren need me. God has a purpose for your life no matter the mistakes we make and we will still go through pain and heart ache. When I read about the son,s fathers, daughters ,and mothers getting blown up and killed fighting to keep our country free and the children going to bed hungry at night and day after day and all the different sufferings in this world my problems don,t seem quit as big anymore.Find someone that's in pain or just needs a friend and do something for that person. It will make you feel better to know that you can make a difference in someone Else's life.God knows the pain that you are going through. Just get in a quiet place and talk to him like you would your very best friend. After all Jesus is your closest friend and he will bring you peace. I will pray for your pain and heart ache and ask God to comfort you and give you peace and understanding and to restore your joy. God Bless Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Claire!	The point of living is to learn, love, explore, suffer etc. You only get one shot at life, otherwise your just laying dead in the earth. The point of living isn't to think about the pain, the suffering, its' to deal with it. To become strong, so that the one life you get is the best one you'll ever have. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

hellevafella	I hear what you're saying but No one is born perfect. What I mean by that is we all make mistakes in life sometimes more than once. I used to feel how you do. I guess I'm older and supposedly wiser. Throughout my life I have had a few scrapes with the grim reaper but he hasn't got me yet so I guess I'm here for a reason right. And I would never Top myself. I have seen the effects of that to many times. I could never hurt my family like that no matter how angry I was at them, For something I'd done which caused all the upset in the first place. No what I mean? So we all make mistake as I said no one is perfect, The point of them is not not to make them but learn why you made them in the first place. See the pattern That caused it, and deal with that. It's obvious by what you've said you ain't silly. Understand what I'm saying and I promise you the rest of your life will fall into place and given enough time you'll find that there are less and less mistake in your life. Take care...

fenwaydav	Honey that's what life is all about. A lot of ups and some downs. I have watched a brother murdered, a father die of cancer friends die of overdoses. I ask sometimes say how come I'm still alive. I have done some pretty bad things and I should be dead. I am not and so happy I am not. I have been given a chance to see how precious life is. For you to die now would not be in the big plan. It would also make so many people unhappy. Hang in there. If need be, speak to a professional.... Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

mroughterrain	dude, you got a lot of replies. interesting. play the cards you're dealt the best you can. bear your pain. laugh at the rest. there are times in life you should be down, or sad. you don't have to be happy every second... the people that are - they're probably stupid. but don't be miserable all the time either. good luck... Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

babydoll	there really isnt a reason. not that we know of anyway , there might be a reason maybe everything we did "in between" is supposed to mean something and maybe it will matter when were done. i guess there is no reason that we know of, that is why you have to have so much ***** fun , smoke it up, drink it down,, have fun and dont give a ** what everybody thinks. make your life awesome, and who knows whats gonna happen after? Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

KeWr	I used to think that, but I now know we (human race) put ourselves into this position. Look to your creator, who has given you eternal life. He will give you answers if you ask truthfully. Yeah, I can already hear what you are thinking. And I used to think that too. But, look at it this way: could it possibly be worse than your current frame of mind? What do you have to loose? Blessings :) Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

mdyh	If you think about it, there are lots of great and wonderful moments in life.... if you only focus on the bad things, well, it doesn't seem worth it.
