Re:Ask HN: What is the purpose of life in your point of view?

This question can have multiple meanings, for example:
1. What should we do with our lives.
2. Why is there life on this universe.
For question 1: I don't thing there's a single purpose that fits everyone. However, this doesn't mean that nothing matters and we are free to whatever we want - we are human beings after all, and there are some things that humans should not do. The obvious ones would be rape and senseless killing.
For question 2: life is just a thing that exists. Why do things exist? Why are there things in the universe, or even a universe at all? Truly mind blowing stuff in my opinion.
These 2 questions are probably related, not sure how.
