Rather than searching for meaning in life, we should strive to make our lives meaningful. Engage in activities that are personally satisfying and also that improves the wider community. Helping others is a wonderful way to find purpose.

Join 7CupsOfTea. JK, but you should if you want to. Helping someone else, donating your hair to cancer, adopt a dog or cat. Thats what I did at least. I kept myself busy and tried to have fun. Didn't care how pointless it was. I guess my life still doesnt have much meaning, but they say their two important days in your life; the day you were born and the day you found out why. You'll find out why some day, until then it doesnt matter.

Look around you, everything has meaning. And every person, I believe, has tasks in life that they don't realize is their task. When you date someone and you two break up after a month, your task, your meaning, was to make them happy for a month. My suggestion is to write down in a journal every good thing that has happened each day, and when you get down read through that journal. Keep your happiness true to you!

Life is pointless which is why we have to create our own path, discover whats out there for ourselves. It can take a while, explore different paths and find the one that makes you most happy with life.

When ever I feel empty or just have a mediocre week or month. I turn to what I love, what I am passionate about. Remember what it is your love and what it is you like to do and that will point you in a better direction.

Life is never pointless! If for but no other reason, live for the sake of life itself. Life is a beautiful thing; it is an evolutionary gift passed down from our ancestors. We now stand on the shoulders of the thousands that came before us.

All knowledge is self-knowledge. Know yourself and you will better know the world around you, and through that knowledge, find meaning in your life.

With Depression it can be VERY hard to find meaning in your life, being a victim of it myself i understand, so the point is to try to find meaning in the little things. Watch cat videos, volunteer to help people, try to make someone's day everyday, go to the park. It will be difficult i know but it's not impossible i promise you. You make life meaningful yourself, even if you have to start small.

Find something that you really enjoy doing, don't worry about what other people think even though that may be a challenge. If you try plenty of new things then hopefully you will find an area that you aspire to carry on with and hopefully in some way that will bring meaning to your life. It doesn't have to be about doing anything for the greater good, it's about finding meaning for you in something that you value.
