Each morning most of us, through force of habit will get up and go to work or school, but you have a choice NOT to do those things. Ofcourse, if you didn’t go to work you could get fired, and if you didn’t go to school you would miss out on taking that important math test or homework assignment.
Each of us have the Free Will to make our own choices.
A student at school has to follow the rules governing the school or he/she will have penalties to answer for, but even at school a person can choose NOT to accept the rules. And go at his or her own Free Will.
Free Will is the abliity to choose for one’s self and accept the consequences for their actions.
The meaning of life, in my view is Procreation & Free Will.

First of all, Man, like all things, has two consistencies: the physical and the nonphysical, or, the mundane and the sublime; the physical, or mundane, consistency constitutes the flesh, and the flesh contains the vital organ-systems necessary to physical, or mundane, life - which, in Man, are the heart-lung-belly system, the musculature-skeleton system, and the brain-nervetree system (take note here that these number three); the nonphysical, or sublime, consistency constitutes the body (which is the nonphysical counterpart to the physical body), and the body contains the vital organ-systems necessary to nonphysical, or sublime, life - which, in Man, are the the soul (the corresponding nonphysical counterpart to the heart-lung-belly system), the spirit (the corresponding nonphysical counterpart to the musculature-skeleton system) and the mind (the corresponding nonphysical counterpart to the brain-nervetree system).

- You may have heard - but have you SEEN, EXPERIENCED within yourself (and without as well) the POWER of God?
Based on your response, obviously not - but I actually hope that you have and aren’t admitting it or will someday. I most certainly have. And I believe that the indescribable experience of “otherness”, of something more - isn’t merely wishful thinking. It isn’t delusion. It’s God. Like when you’ve had a great cigar, or meal, or sex, or see the beauty (and perhaps even lack therof) in life, nature, the universe - I KNOW, from my subjective experience, that I have SEEN God through those wonderful experiences.

I have a firm belief that the answer to the meaning of life is 42. Before you say anything, I KNOW that Douglas Adams said 42 means nothing and was just a simple idea thought up while he was looking out the window, BUT, if you spend your time wondering what the ‘meaning of life’ is, 42 fills that gap. Once you have that question answered, you can move on to more important matters.

The opinions/thoughts/excretions of others is only a indication of where you are and what surrounds you. There is only one voice/opinion/life and that is yours. You are the only constant in your existence. Believe in yourself. Look into yourself, hear your thoughts, don’t judge what you see or hear. If you don’t like it put it aside for another time (part of non-judgement). Creation/God, what you like, has only one resource for creation, it self. So by definition you are not beyond, different, defective, hopeless, etc. You are looking for someone else’s voice to fill the void created by dismissing your own. How can life be confusing if by definition we are life?

A
gazillion different studies tell us that people who meditate everyday are far
happier than those who do not. I guess they are also healthier, live longer, and
(get this) are smarter! It seems those who meditate have a sense of well-being
is much higher than that of non-meditators. In fact, meditators are so much
healthier that there are even some insurance companies charging lower premiums
for those that meditate than for the general population. So why doesn't everyone
meditate?
