Is life meaningless? Life is not meaningless and here is why. First of all, everything has its own role to play in the natural order of the universe. If you observe closely you will begin to realise that everything is a cycle and it repeats itself from the beginning of time. Life is like a chess board. Every piece has its own value and its own place. Second of all, you will see that even if we look at the bigger picture (for instance the life span of the galaxy or the universe) our existence seems insignificant but yet we are conscious of our environement and we are able to interact and change things around us. That is a certain form of power. To conclude, everything that you see is relative. From the macroscopic world that seems to us like really old and moving slowly to the quantic world where everything seems to move faster its only a question of scale. Maybe we are 7 billion years old as humans for the quantic world (who knows).
Sincerely,
Paul
