Introduction: What is the Meaning of life? One of those ubiquitous questions jocularly asked of philosophers. It is of course a question that cannot be answered, or at least not till other questions have been answered first. Perhaps a more apposite question might be: "what is Life?
One of the central recurring theme of my philosophy relates to the nature of our existence.
It does not answer the question of "what is the meaning of life" but but it may give us a "back door" to a meaning to our lives.

The Nature Of Existence
Perception is everything: What we believe we are seeing or experiencing will be what we react to. As an animal we are just "being" with that perception. As a human, for the reasons I describe in The Human Condition, we can see and analyses the nature of that "being" .
The Greeks,The Romans, The Vikings, and many more: all of these cultures saw the boundaries to their existence, they saw the "walls" that held the perception of their reality. They used their imagination to "escape" to the confines of their Box of existence. They used there imagination to make sense of their lives, to give it meaning and a resolution to understanding. What we see now as the myths and legends of the God's of the various cultures was I feel a very profound. Amongst other things it was peoples looking out side the confines of their immediate "being" to an alternative reality: they had looked outside the box. What I am considering is not the why they imagined what they imagined but rather just the fact of the creation of an alternative understanding to reality. The fact that their imaginative explanation were not reality is immaterial: it was the fact that they perceived of something beyond that of the "face value" perception.
