        Wow, big question! Someone asked me this once and I think I responded with ‘there isn’t one’, which sounds a bit sad now I’m writing it down here. I think life is what you make of it 🙂

        42 is technically the answer to Life, the Universe and Everything!
        The meaning of life depends on your point of view and who or what you are. I suppose if you were a bee, your meaning of life would be to collect pollen to make honey. Who knows what the meaning of the human race is? Maybe it is to be scientists!
