The life is, "something onto death". As if this is the state of life, the adage, "live every moment" is a self defeating argument (if we accept to live every moment, the reality is that every moment we breath brings us closer to our inevitable end). The reality of life is inherently a depressive affair but it is the only certainty. Actually this certainty is the only standardiser for humans. One of the human instinct is to create a divide, establish a narrative of us and them. The reason of this divide is rooted to establish power over others. We will find a reason to separate ourselves by using either social elements (sub or super structures) or our humanly features like colour of skin etc. With all our differences and nuances, which actually makes us human and interesting, but then why we need to standardise humans? Will it reduce "the humanness" in us?
I believe if we ever want to derive the purpose of life, we can use this standardised state of life which no living being can release themselves from. If we are all susceptible to death, then we can give up all the dividers to converge to build a purposeful life for everyone. This means that finding the "meaning/purpose" of life is a collective exercise. So even though life is lived individually but its worth is materialised collectively,,,
