On Meaning of Life
The question of the meaning of our lives comes when we are (relatively) free and don't need to fight for our survival. It doesn't come when we are in a lack of food or without a shelter, or when there is a heavenly-blessed telling that we live to serve him.
This question is like a slow poison. It brings a chaos in our lives, weakening our strengths, killing our moral and motivation. The reason for that is obvious. We have a long history of wars and usurpation. we just don't know how to live in peace and freedom.
The solution would be to learn how to live in peace and freedom. To set up goals and values in the society that have meaning when there is no-one to fight. This is a major change to the way we live now. So it is easier to start a new war.
