To understand the meaning of life, first, think of the most basic lifecycles, plant lifecycles. A flower's sole purpose in life is to grow, attract a bee for pollen, then let loose new seed to become new flowers. Now move on to a living creature, the moth. Though they are known for eating clothes, many are born without mouths. They spend their lives as caterpillars, they eat, grow, explore and then become moths. Then they spend the remainder of their lives reproducing. For fish, they are born, eat, grow, then reproduce. Based on the previous statement we can assume that the meaning of life is to reproduce. But if you jump to that conclusion you may miss out on the other meanings. While the flower moth and fish only care about the preservation of their species, humans are much more complex. To say that your life has the same goals and limits of that of a fish would be idiocy, have you so little faith in your own kind? Yes reproduction is important but it is only a small part of the greater goal of all human life. I have come to understand 4 meanings of life. Reproduction is only the first. The second is evolution. We are the superior species, can destroy the earth if we wanted. But we should always look for a way to better ourselves. To grow faster, stronger, smarter. (Continues in example)
