What makes life worth living?

Question

If life is just a cycle then why continue living if we already know where we are going? What is the the real purpose of life for all?

Answer 1

Life is a journey for ever.

We will die sure but our souls go on forever.

What we do now to show our love for others and believe in God, and His son Jesus helps prepare us for what will be our rewards. We can be happy forever if we believe in Jesus and that he died to suffer our sins for us.

Answer 10

Because life in an ongoing challenge that present new rewards and possibilities around every corner.  The secret to a purpose in life to me is to do the next right thing, no matter if it's in our best interest or not.  The main point is that we do what's right.  Eventually it will lead us to a place of more serenity and understanding.  At that point you can look back and realize that you made a difference in someone or just in youself.  That's what make life worth while.

Answer 11

Who says we know where we are going? I believe the question of what's next has been thought about since man could think. And so has your next question - what meaning in all this? Personally, I believe just about everyone's got it wrong. Most look at their individual lives and search for meaning, but I don't think you can find it there. I think we need to look for collective meaning, as a community and our part in it may seem of little consequence but it is important for the whole. What we choose - good or ill, is important and could have long term unknown effects for decades to come, maybe even forever. But it's nothing we will ever see as an individual.

Answer 12

What makes life worth living is the single most important reason  that non living ( death) is not worth  too. Death or embracing death  is the easiest they say. They are  not right. Try taking your life away. It is impossible. it is hard. It  makes you feel lousy.

If death  or non living is not an alternative then life or living is the only way out.Why not live it up?

The feeling that your life is not worth living is due to the fact that you  attach no value for your life and you feel that the others , too, attach no value for your life. This is not so. Someone , .... somebody ... in your community , society , country , world would find you useful. A blind , a sick , an old friend  , a cancer patient .... they will all ask for help from you and you can . These will make you feel that life is worth living.

Answer 13

simply put? love. Finding that one person that makes your heart skip a beat every time you see them. The person that makes you so happy you dont want to go a minute without them. That makes life worth it.
