Reason for life:

duality -> the animate and inanimate, the conscious and unconscious

Function of life:

Information exchange between processes of a system to enable the natural occurrence of order.
duality -> entropy and life

Meaning of life:

If function is meaning to you, see function. Otherwise meaning depends on the individual's values.

I do as well, with an addendum in case someone defines meaning as function.

If I base my musing on making duality a governing principle of reality, inherent works fine. Different vantage points, interesting.

Some say the meaning of life is to achieve happiness through developing human virtues like justice, moderation, wisdom and courage. Other say it is found in sensual pleasures. There are also those who claim the meaning of life is to give life meaning. And probably countless other meanings as well.

Whatever one picks is fine with me as long as one is not harming other people.

I would say the right question would be "what is the purpose of life"

=]

I guess the main point is to be happy

and the key to that is: to do things

and the key to that is: to do things with people

yay

being in love with someone helps alot

love: to like someone as personality

"the poor person that is in love is more happier than the rich person"

What's the meaning of listening to a song? What's the point? Why listen to a song? What is the purpose of listening to a song? If you like the song, it can be pretty amazing.

It is interesting to note, however, that people generally never seem to be interested in this kind of questions when they're satisfied and fulfilled with what's going on in their lives.
