The meaning
What can be the meaning of life, and why do we exist? The meaning of life has something to do with the existence of life in the universe which we know as the life on Earth. There is no sense to isolate the humans' life from the whole life, which we know as the life on Earth, and then begin to think that our existence comes out of nothing which someone can make up one's mind of what should be instead of to understand about what it is. The meaning of life has something to do with the whole life, and the whole life is a system of connections which depends on; the connections between all the species, the elements, and the intention for it all. In this way, the thoughts of such tings are a little serious, and such a little serious thoughts can mean a lot. The meaning of the whole life with its entire species, is the same factor which gives the meaning of the life to humans. So the meaning of life and why we exist, is something serious to think about. Every little piece in this whole life on Earth is something important, and so is also every single human being.
To be a human is something very much to be. To get the possibilities to live and develops as such a human enriched human being, is the very valuable right to get for every single human being.
This meaning of life is the factor which is a human's strongest factor, and that is something other humans not can take away from a human because it does not matter how many such other people they are, this is the strongest factor anyway. That meaning is something we have to understand about; to try to take this meaning from humans will not succeed. In my opinion this meaning first and foremost is to understand about the truths in our existence and to develop our possibilities. The planned lies about our existence which some people have made for today, are something very destructive. The unplanned untruths which other people also have made, are also something to improve.
If the creating of the human race has been an initial intention for the life on Earth, which is very thinkable, such an intention has had a lot to do before the creating of the human race could take place. And it must be something very important and powerful in our existence that does such things. And what we have directly from this cause, are our possibilities to think and understand which are something very much to get.
The characteristic quality of the human race is that our possibilities and meanings are built on cultural development in connection to our natural habit. In my opinion these thoughts are relevant in the beginning of the development of the human race which I think still must be at our present time today. A lot of things have happened until to today, but a lot of things will happen in the future too.
I do not think the old religions can give answers to all the questions we have today; the old religions are to much build on the early stages of our cultural development. The old religions have meant a lot to peoples all over the world, and they still do so, but the old religions are made in a connection to the early stages of our cultural development. Our cultural development is still something valuable. Today it will be correct to make our thoughts out of today's possibilities with much more knowledge than before, and to gain knowledge is our given quality which we still can believe in.
War is not an intention for the human race because it is so destructive. Wars are crimes which humans must clear up with righteousness in an honest way; our history is full of war crimes which cause unfairness and wars again and again and break down our real possibilities on Earth today. To gain social justice, cultural equality, and peace on Earth; is something constructive which will give the humans the possibility to be what they really are meant to be. To gain such results needs peace between the humans on Earth. Too much weapons against humans are for war. As one human race on Earth, dominion of weapons against humans is something wrong which we have to get finished with, and that aim needs human skill instead of war for all the humans together on Earth. It takes time to understand, to gain peace on Earth will give time and possibilities for humans to understand. Peace and possibilities are two factors that can work together and gain basis for constructive results to go further with for the humans on Earth.
