i think we make our own meanings in life, you know? we all have different reasons to live, reasons to get up in the morning, reasons to try again. and the most depressing thing is that when someone says they can't find a reason, a meaning. they don't know what is the point of living anymore. well i say you make your own reasons and meanings and live your own stories. make yourself, if you can't find it. live for the moment, the sea, the sunset, live for the flowers, live to see the sunrise, live to see the world. but most importantly. live for yourself.

Do new things everyday. Soon enough, you'll find a hobby or someone out there that can help you cope until you feel as if you could care for yourself. Everyone's born with a meaning and a purpose, and it's our job to find that purpose.

There are times when we feel that we are worthless and life is pointless. Life is all about living, not just existing or breathing. You should have fun, make time for yourself and do the things that you enjoy and things that thrill you.

I think you need to find your happiness, you may be lost in the moment. You have to figure out what makes you happy. Live on where you are happy, we may sometimes take away the things that are unnecessary and hard to let go but once we found our place, once we'll find our happiness then, we'll find the meaning of life.

Look up to your past, to the moment where you also felt this way. What made you survive? If this is the first time of you feeling this way, then you should look for hobbies, passion, people that you love, or things, pets, anything. Do something new. Don't be sad over people or the mean ones, or your boss, or your boss who is mean, or your frienemies. Don't. Be happy. Make yourself proud. Make them wonder why is it about you that makes you survive. All my prayers â¤

What has helped me is developing a spiritual relationship with a Higher power. I know that sounds "religious" so bear with me. What has given me meaning is finding something higher than myself to love and to be loved by. Meaning happens naturally when we come into contact with something higher than ourselves and it can be the most uplifting, fruitful and pleasant experience. Good luck, friend!

Yes, absolutely it is until you don't search for its meaning. Its always easy to leave hope and just think its not worth it but if you try living it you will find the point you are right now missing.
Try falling in love with yourself, love everything without expecting something in return you will get the meaning of your life. :) Be happy.
