yep ...I reckon you got it...I cheated!

I looked it up...

LIFE : the condition which distinguishes animals and plants from inorganic objects and dead organisms. ....(doesn't really do it for me)

but I suspect we want to know more accurately..the meaning of 'meaning' itself?

that short list you got there is just the beginning of a bottomless pit of 'meaningless' ...I agree with you.

wow you got my synapses firing

do 'things' mean what we want them to mean?...and if so why?
do things mean what those around us seem to make them mean...and what do they get out of it?
do things mean whatever they are going to mean anyway..and if so what does that mean?
do things mean something meaningful or something meaningless?..and is there a difference?

aaaah! mental spasm

I will return
