Isn't it 42

No, wait it's 14.

As recorded at Ecclesiastes 12:13, Solomon explained: ?The conclusion
of the matter, everything having been heard, is: Fear the true God and
keep his commandments. For this is the whole obligation of man.?

Solomon?s verdict that life?s meaning cannot be divorced from a
wholesome fear of God was repeatedly confirmed by Jesus Christ. ?It is
written,? Jesus said, quoting God?s Word, ?Man must live, not on bread
alone, but on every utterance coming forth through Jehovah?s mouth.?
(Matthew 4:4; Deuteronomy 8:3) Yes, for one?s life to be fulfilling,
the spiritual dimension cannot be ignored. Of himself, Jesus said
further: ?My food is for me to do the will of him that sent me and to
finish his work.? (John 4:34) Obediently serving his heavenly Father
was a source of joy and satisfaction. It nourished him. It gave
purpose to his life.

Therefore, can life reach its full potential without God? No!
Interestingly, historian Arnold Toynbee once wrote: ?The true purpose
of a higher religion is to radiate the spiritual counsels and truths
that are its essence into as many souls as it can reach, in order that
each of these souls may be enabled thereby to fulfil the true end of
Man. Man?s true end is to glorify God and to enjoy Him for ever.? The
prophet Malachi expressed God?s view: ?You  people will again
certainly see the distinction between a righteous one and a wicked
one, between one serving God and one who has not served him.??Malachi
3:18.

As such there is no meaning of life, until you add some meaning to it.
I always see the Life like a metrorail  -  you meet some people in a
metrorail  you get acquainted to them , share some experiences then
suddenly at one station some people get down at another station some
others  and you stay in it untill you reach your station. To me the
station marks the ends of journey. so life is like being in a
metrorail , meeting some new people in the journey and saying good bye
to those who leave.

on "the hitchhikers way through the galaxy" the ultimate question of
the purpose of life is  "4" but that is if you believe mice and
dolphins are smarter than us
