Del: sorry, I had a brain fart
The only purpose to life is to live it. Beyond that, you have to find the meaning that suits you for yourself.
No.
There is no inherent purpose.
no the purpose of life is to exist
The purpose of human life is to submit ourselves to the Idea.
Everyone has to figure out their own purpose

You're better off seeking contentment.
