I am enjoying my life. But why does it exist. |

Without life, no one would ever care about the universe. If no one can see or experience it, it is like if never existed. _________________

Why does life exist? Because it had to. It's very simple... let me explain. For more details on this, research do some research on the work of Lawrence Krauss.
But let me summarize what he says.
If you take away all the particles, all the radiation, so all you have is nothing... quantum physics says that "nothing" is unstable. Fluctuations of virtual particles cause a big bang.
Our universe can be one of three possible shapes. Open, flat, or closed.
In an open universe, it would expand forever and accelerate over time.
In a closed universe, it would expand, accelerate, and then retract in a big crunch.
In a flat universe, it would expand, accelerate, then slow down, but never quite stop.
We live in a flat universe. The reason is because only such a universe can be created from nothing. If you add up all of the energy in the universe, positive and negative, it adds up to zero.
In the beginning, there was nothing. But quantum instabilities caused that nothing to divide into positive and negative energy/matter.
The only question is where did the laws of physics come from? String theory attempts to explain that one. What we need is a law that basically says "anything is possible", relatively speaking.
And to those who say the universe is fine-tuned... well, Krauss puts it best: "It's no surprise we find ourselves living in a universe that allows life... because in universes that don't allow life, we wouldn't be here. It's just that simple". |

It exists because it just does.
Don't question it. |

Why wouldn't you question it? To me, it is one of the most fascinating things one can ponder.
Without questioning life, you cannot fully appreciate it. If someone lived blindly their whole life, never wondering why they exist... isn't that the definition of "taking something for granted"?
If I lived in a theoretical afterlife, I would certainly be disappointed knowing that I had not pondered about life when I had the chance. |

| Who says the concept of creation even exists outside of our physical reality? All of these things are only perceptions from the point of view of the person that's thinking about them. Beyond the world we know everything could be different. None of us have the mental capacity to work any of this out. |

If you have the ability to be disappointed in the afterlife, then you'll have time to ponder it over then.
Who cares why it exists?
It depends on your personal beliefs.
Just live it while you can. If you believe in the afterlife, then there's plenty of time to ponder it then. |

This thread sucks and isn't going anywhere. No one will be able to truly understand our existence. |

our time is finite. let me prove that to you.
First of all, let me give you a statement.
| Quote: | | I will give you a chocolate bar after you flip the light switch 18 times |
When, or will you be able to receive the chocolate bar?
The answer is Yes. After you complete flipping the light switch, you will reach that point in time and receive the chocolate bar.
Now, If I say:
| Quote: | | I will give you a chocolate bar after you flip the light switch for an infinite amount of times. |
Will you ever get the chocolate bar?
No. Because you will never reach that point in time.
Same thing applies with our universe. If there was an infinite amount of time before right THIS point in time, we would NEVER reach it.
I hope i have cleared some things up. Thanks for reading. _________________
