heres a philosophy question: if the meaning of life is the life itself, then what is the meaning of death? can nonexistence truly hold any meaning to us? humans have always found meaning in things, but how do we place meaning in the act of not existing? is it what lead up to the death, the final action before the death, is it the death itself, is it the beliefs of the person who died? truly something puzzling to think about.

From a nihilistic perspective, which I also share, life has no inherent meaning, and likewise, death has no ultimate meaning either.

From an existentialist point of view however, the answer is generally subjective. The meaning an individual assigns to life can vary just as much as the meaning they assign to death. For some, death is an end. For others, it is a beginning. And for some, it is a form of renewal.

One of my favorite quotes on this subject comes from Epicurus, in his work Letter to Menoeceus: “When we exist, death is not; and when death exists, we are not.”
