The document discusses the meaning of life as being survival. It argues that humans were born to survive through accessing food, water, and shelter, and then reproduce to continue the population. Once the time comes, humans were designed to die as that is the natural way of life - to live, reproduce, and then die without any greater purpose or role beyond basic survival.

1. The Meaning of Life
The meaning of life to me is survival. Why were we born?
We were born to survive. That’s why there is food, water,
shelter. We were born to survive, then reproduce to keep
our population from extinction. And when the time comes,
we were made to die. This is the way of life. To live,
produce, then die. Nothing more, nothing less. We weren’t
made to become a judge. We weren’t made to be governor.
We weren’t even made to become the president. These
are all systems that humans invented. These are things
we can do to help our population grow, and succeed. But,
this is NOT what we were made for. The meaning of life is
survival.
