Some people believe that if life has no purpose, then there is no reason for living. While others think that if life has no purpose, that frees a person to find/create and follow their own personal purpose. Which is a more valid point of view or are they both equally valid?
 
Frankly, I don't care if life has a purpose or not. I just live it. There's so many things I want to do in life I don't have time to think about these things.
 
True but comes down to money! like places to go and can't go without an good amount of cash behind you
 
It's easy to find a purpose in life - but many seek the wrong purpose, but wrong purposes are often not apparent to people.
 
I believe both are fairly accurate in their own ways. I was born into a spiritual family and was always told, "Everyone is born for a purpose and a person". Basically, they told me we're all born for a reason, and soulmates exist. The thing is, the reason I was even born into my family was a form of purpose: my mother had heard pregnancy and childbirth could put her Crohn's disease into permanent remission. Instead, she had to get a c-section because her she was no longer giving me oxygen and I was dying. As the remission didn't happen, I grew up feeling it was my own failure, even if I had no control over my birth itself. That's why, while I was told to believe I was born for a reason, I learned to try to make my own purpose since my original one failed. For that alone, I think both types of purpose are equally applicable.
 
Well, Life does have a purpose.

You're born onto the Earth to achieve whatever you desire. Either you want to be Rich and Famous, have a Family, your Life always has a purpose and a goal to achieve. Then you grow-up and work hard in School, just to achieve the Job that you desire.

Then, Life and the Earth starts too.....Take a really bad turn
You work and you work while the Government slowly crumbles, Shootings and Assaults occur, people begin to protest about stupid things and oh boy! There is a lot more to Life than just a purpose.

Well, what I actually mean here - is that life interests - which might coincide with a career, a dream for many, are good things, but not truly satisfying. But that's not saying it's not good to pursue those things. I guess, I'm sort of going into a Christian/Buddhist type thinking. I'm saying I wouldn't make "too much" of what you like.

Life isn't a physical entity or organization capable of conscious thought. Life has no inherent purpose, as it cannot think on its own and cannot make decisions. It is not an entity.
 
Life does not have a defined purpose, it is the people who lives in it that will find the path that they want to go. There is nothing like purpose in life, you are the one to set the standard of life you want to live which define your purpose.
 
It's deep. Why are we born? Why was the first human made? or however it came to be. Why does this world even exists? Was it really necessary? I don't know.

But I know that nothing both positive and negative would have happened if there was no world. But what I know is that once you have come to life, you can find a purpose, you have to find a purpose, it could be anything,

However, in my own purpose, everything centers to ending up being happy and living a fulfilled life. So whatever that is not bad, and would make this possible, is my purpose.
 
I think some people are into loving their passions and themselves. Other people love others. Others love others and themselves and passions.

I think true joy comes in loving others.
 
Not to mention nowadays that people love there own pets more then others and themselves
 
Just one purpose? That's not the appropriate way to look at things. Each day we have different purposes! I don't think people should not want to continue life because they can't see what others might see in them and the value that they hold.
 
Your purpose in life is what you make of it.

I like this quote:
The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.- Ralph Waldo Emerson

Though, to me, if you do & are those things, happiness will come naturally.
