The Meaning of Life

Without realizing, I didn't answer my own question in my last post. I was asking myself what is the meaning of life, and I ended up answering the question "how should life be lived?" No matter. There is always time to answer more questions when you're in the middle of avoiding upcoming deadlines, so here goes: From what i understand so far, the meaning/purpose of life is to grow and evolve from what you're originally given into something that would advance the human race as a whole. So for example, if I started with low self-esteem and confidence and I evolved to become a social butterfly, then what I leave the world with is the knowledge that it is possible to develop yourself in that aspect even though you weren't naturally gifted. Other people watching me would realize that it is possible, and try it themselves, ideally using the same methods I have used. More people would then watch those people, and the number of people that end up improving in that aspect of their lives would increase exponentially. When the day of Jesus comes, these people, my future sons/daughters of that generation, would be "Evolved" partly because of me. And the fact that I contributed gives meaning to my life. So my live's purpose is solely to evolve! Fancy that, Darwin was right all along, but not in the way he expected I guess.

I just read on a website that the meaning of life was a conscious decision to make your reality whatever you want it to be. I think that's very true. If I'm determined to be happy, nothing could stand in my way. So here's a bottom's up to being happy! Everything I do I want to do it to glorify God, and I hope that what I accomplished this year sang his praises.
