Alan Watts, the religion writer who specialized in Eastern religions, and especially Zen, said that the meaning of life is basically death. A life is like an unfinished painting, and the death of the person is what puts that last brushstroke on the canvas.
I'm also reminded of a Woody Allen quip: "I don't want to live forever through my works. I want to live together through never dying."SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.Comment

this thread reminds me of my first year philosophy course exam.
1/3 of the marks of the exam - which was 40% or 60% (I don't remember exatly - it was worth a LOT though) was one simple question with a whole blank page below it. "WHY?" - that's it - and a bland page - 1/3 of the marks of the exam was only that. Everyone around me wrote VOLUMES of info on it cause they felt they had to fill the page. I wrote only one word as my answer - "because" and got full marks.
I loved that prof - I think he gave me full marks just cause that answer took guts with a full blank page there.This dog, is dog, a dog, good dog, way dog, to dog, keep dog, an dog, idiot dog, busy dog, for dog, 20 dog, seconds dog!
Now read without the word dog.Comment

now ponder this (it's not an insult or ego burst)Originally posted by chodadog
My life is rather insignificant and meaningless in the grand scheme of the universe. But to me, and the people around me, in my own little world, if you will, my life is full of meaning.

"I try to make a habit of bouncing my eyes up to the face of a beautiful woman, and often repeat “not mine” in my head or even verbally. She’s not mine. God has her set aside. She’s not mine. She’s His little girl, and she needs me to fight for her by keeping my eyes where they should be."Comment

While we're on good woody allen philosophy quotes:Originally posted by UnseenWorld
I'm also reminded of a Woody Allen quip: "I don't want to live forever through my works. I want to live together through never dying."
"I'm not afraid of dying...I just don't want to be there when it happens."
"Human Beings are divided into mind and body. The mind embraces all the nobler aspirations, like poetry and philosophy, but the body has all the fun."
"On the plus side, death is one of the few things that can be done just as easily as lying down."-gripComment

Life is just a term coined to explain the physical extent of a perceived "reality". Therefor, the only meaning that could be dirrived from it is that of it's own definition, as fabricated by the faculties of that which brought it to the pages of Webster's dictionary:
life ( P ) Pronunciation Key (lf)
n. pl. lives (lvz)
"The property or quality that distinguishes living organisms from dead organisms and inanimate matter, manifested in functions such as metabolism, growth, reproduction, and response to stimuli or adaptation to the environment originating from within the organism."
If you want to know if you're life is meaningless, then that would depend on whether or not you can read a dictionary.

Quiet....
not sure if you are just fucking around and playing philosophists advocate or not, but especially with your upcoming retirement (alledged), you might be interested in learning about this:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg...books&n=507846
Seriously, a book that when combined with a little practice has really transformed my outlook and philosophy, and gotten me out of some pretty dark places.
