      Does it matter if we don’t know? It is a very philosophical question that many people have been trying to answer for a long time, but even though I am technically a doctor of philosophy, I have to say, I haven’t got a clue! We are here and we will just have to get on with it!

      I do not believe that we came into existence to serve a certain purpose during our lifes.

      I am here, and I just try to make the best out of it! A lot of people say the meaning of life for them is to have children, but most of them are older than you. And me.

      I think everyone has to find his/her own meaning of life. Some decide to dedicate their lifes to saving other people’s lifes, or the climate, or whales or they get involved in charity projects. A lot say that they want to make a difference.
      You are young, you have a lot of time to figure out the meaning of life for you!

      Two more things: On your profile I read you want to become a graphic/logo artist. And you love science. That’s where I was 12 years ago- I liked science and art. I decided to become a scientist. Now I might go back into the direction of art and do illustration of science- combining both. You might want to look up “medical illustrator” as a career. I did not know it existed, when I chose what to study, otherwise I would probably have chosen this one.
      And the second thing: You asked about how cancer spreads in the afternoon chat. I tried to answer it, but maybe my answer was not understandable, because you kept asking. Just ask it as a question, and I will give it a second try. With more than two milliseconds to consider what to write 🙂
