    Whatever you make it / want it to be. Why try to find purpose beyond living how you want to live? We’re only around for about 80 years, why waste it trying to find meaning from someone else.

      Fair enough, but it’s not about taking someone else’s meaning, but defining our own that aligns with our values. Discussing this question with others might give one new perspective on the path to finding purpose.

      One could also argue we only have 80 years and finding purpose can serve as the foundation for personal growth. Fulfilling a purpose can lead to happiness and satisfaction in life. So why waist these short 80 years miserable and unhappy?
