Does life really have a purpose and meaning?

Life is something that we have to understand, that is, we have to look at it from the outside. For example, if we look at this mobile, we have to look at this mobile from the outside. In other philosophies, we look for purpose meaning, but in existentialism, there is no purpose meaning. Why, if we take a remote control, what is its object, that is, to work without moving? If this remote control is conscious and has life, then it does not need to have this purpose.
Similarly, human beings do not need to have a purpose. In other philosophies, the essence quality is defined first and then existence comes. But in existentialism, life comes first.

Selfishness |In existentialism life really have a purpose and meaning.

After coming out of the mother’s womb, the mother gave her breast to drink milk. When I sucked a little (no one taught me that doing so will satisfy my hunger), milk came and my hunger was satisfied. She caressed me, played with me, sang to me and said, “Mom.” I was getting benefits from her, that’s why I called her “Mom.”

Then she showed me my father and said, “Mom.” That man was very strong and treated me like my mother, so I accepted him as my father.

After that, I went to school for a little while and the program was that if I study, I will get a job. I accepted the teachers for myself,
I will accept this society to the extent that I want because there are benefits.
I got married for myself..

Does life really have a purpose and meaning?

Whatever a person does, he does it for himself, that is, for his own selfishness. The values ​​he has given above are false. They say that I am not for myself, but for this society or for my family. But whatever they do, it’s for their own selfish interests.

If the same mother sees me sacrificing myself to God, I will not go because I am a mother. I will run away and go to my father. If my father also has the same faith, I will go to the police. And if the same police also have the same faith, I will go somewhere in the forest and hide. I will accept my mother and at the same time I will reject my mother if it harms me.
I was not born for society, I am using society for myself.
