I guess, but it’s led me to seek out interesting topics such as philosophy, psychology, science, spirituality and Arts. It’s been an amazing experience to view the world from different perspectives. Life is so uncertain and complex that it becomes difficult to predict what will happen. There are some very hard but important questions, which anyone will face in their lifetime. Some of them might be more difficult than others, but answering any of these can make us think. If we want to be positive all day long, then there are some key things that we should remember. For example, Some things just aren’t meant to be or Whatever doesn’t kill you makes you stronger can help motivate us not only during our weakest moments, but also on a daily basis. These thoughts can provide us with hope at any time or remind us of how strong we truly are if we really need it. I personally put some great efforts and expressed my understanding about life in this post. This list of 20 really hard questions with answers has made me have so many revelations about myself and the world around me. If you are looking for a little inspiration or just want to learn more about yourself, nature and existence. Mind, consciousness, god, the universe and our society through some thought-provoking conversation starters, then keep reading. I hope you find these as fascinating as I did. Get smart by thinking better and faster. Leave me a comment below, how you felt about my answers and what have you learnt from this discussion.

Hardest questions about life to answer.
Here is the list of hardest questions about life with answers.
1. How to prove that God does exist?
Answer: It’s important to realize that belief or disbelief in god isn’t necessarily founded on facts, but rather personal preference & how people choose to define their reality. Believing something doesn’t mean it’s true, but not believing is equally as invalid since no one can say for sure there isn’t a supreme being somewhere else in our universe. You can either believe or not believe, but either way it’s fine. Questioning whether or not god exists is OK since everyone has their own path & what works for someone else might not be right for everyone.
2 How to prove that God doesn’t exist?
Answer: The answer to any question can’t be proven or disproven since how we view things is subjective. Most people believe in god, but it’s fair to say there are those who don’t as well. We can never know what’s true for certain, but life isn’t about knowing everything anyway. It’s important to remember even if we could prove one way or another whether or not a supreme being exists, it wouldn’t really matter. Some people find comfort in believing a higher power has a plan for them and others feel more powerful without a higher authority. The bottom line is no matter which side of an argument someone takes, they’re just as correct as anyone else because it all depends on one’s perspective & there isn’t anything wrong with that.
3. How are you feeling now and how do you know it?
Answer: We all have emotions & they are an important part of what makes us human. Emotions are just chemicals produced by our bodies so there’s no need to feel ashamed of how we feel. They come & go & there’s nothing wrong with changing your mind about something now and then if needed. If someone says they’re happy every day, I would be skeptical because happiness is a state of mind, not a constant physical state. We can’t actually know how another person feels (unless they tell us) but we can observe their behavior for signs like body language, facial expressions, voice tone etc. since that will offer clues as to their true feelings at any given moment in time.
4. Where do thoughts come from?
Answer: Thoughts are electrical signals in our brains, not separate beings or entities so they don’t need to come from anywhere other than your own mind. According to quantum physics and neurobiology (anatomy & physiology of neurons) brain cells (neurons) and their networks (interconnected by synapses, neurotransmitters etc.) can be thought of as a biological computer because we process information & solve problems with them which leads us to experience things like thoughts. However, our minds will always be mysterious and there’s no way anyone can prove where our thoughts come from just like we could never prove God’s existence. Some people believe everything is actually all happening at once regardless of what time frame someone perceives it to be in. In an infinite universe/reality, there would not only exist alternate universes but alternate Earths too. What does here mean anyways when anything is possible if there truly exists for each individual person existing right now on Earth? Who knows what could happen tomorrow but if someone really wants to know how I’m feeling, they could ask me about it directly since nobody knows exactly how I feel except for myself.

5. Why can’t we remember all of our dreams?
Answer: Our dreams happen when we’re sleeping and since we spend about 1/3 of our lives asleep, it’s no surprise that we can’t remember everything. Some people dream in color while others dream in black & white… Although most people don’t remember their dreams, they do experience them so there’s something special about dreaming. Dreams can be interpreted as a creative state of mind & way for us to process information while asleep so anyone who says they’ve never had a dream doesn’t really exist to me since I’m not sure if they just prefer not to remember them or never experienced any during their lifetime. Everyone experiences some kind of dream life whether or not it involves lucid dreaming where someone is aware of and able to consciously direct and control what happens in their dreams while unconscious.
6. Why do people dream?
Answer: Dreams can be interpreted as a creative state of mind & way for us to process information while asleep. Sometimes they reflect things we’re concerned or anxious about such as our health, relationships or financial situation. Other times, they may involve nightmares which could include references to past trauma like war or traumatic experiences in childhood. There’s evidence to suggest dreams serve a biological purpose so we can continue learning and adapting since we tend to dream when we sleep in cycles throughout each night with REM (rapid eye movement) typically happening every 90 minutes and increasing in length each time. According to research, it appears most people do dream since approximately 2/3 of us will experience at least one type of dream per night on average & tend to recall more when we’re just waking up than an hour later.
7. Do animals know what love is?
Answer: It’s impossible to know for sure whether or not animals are able to love, feel emotion or have any kind of consciousness. Dogs can be trained to help their owners in many ways but nobody can prove they’re capable of true empathy & feelings of affection, but I choose to believe they are since it brings me joy. Pigs are known for being smart creatures with distinct personalities who are also said to be among our most loyal friends in need too. Elephants grieve when loved ones die by showing signs like sleeplessness and depression while some dolphins show empathy by protecting injured loved ones from sharks and some birds mourn lost family members too. Dolphins are even able to recognize themselves in a mirror which shows they may be aware of what they look like & more importantly, that they possess at least some level of self-awareness; learning more about their intelligence helps us understand our place on Earth better.
8. Are there alien species living on Earth?
Answer: Aliens living on Earth would be kind of like an episode from The Twilight Zone , but there’s no reason to believe we’re alone in outer space. We’ve sent over 1,000 probes into space since 1957 and there’s been speculation for decades about whether or not aliens exist or have visited us in some way. There are a lot of unknowns out there, but it doesn’t make sense to assume there isn’t life elsewhere when planets may very well be common in our universe. The number of galaxies in our observable universe is estimated to be between 50 and 400 billion. So far, we know of at least 100 billion galaxies which means that if anything else exists out there, chances are it’d be beyond our comprehension & scientific understanding.

9.What does it mean to love and what makes love last forever?
Answer: Love seems like a simple concept, but there’s no one definition of it which can be complicated when it comes to things like marriage. Any kind of relationship is built on multiple factors so it’s tough to pin down whether or not we can ever love anyone enough no matter how hard we try. Some relationships begin based on physical attraction & grow with time, but others are just right from day one. It takes work to maintain any type of relationship since there are multiple dynamics at play such as what happens in your head, heart and life outside of your partner too. The best way to know if you’re truly loving someone else is by being selfless since putting their needs above yours can help ensure both parties are cared for equally. what makes love last forever? Empathy may seem abstract, but getting to know each other helps increase our capacity for understanding. Just like empathy isn’t something we choose , neither is true love (not even romantic). These kinds of connections happen naturally over time which means staying committed requires trust and faith more than anything else. There aren’t any shortcuts to feeling comfortable with another person over time because it all depends on shared experiences and ultimately bonding through them together.
10. How to know what is the right thing to do?
Answer: There isn’t any set formula for figuring out what’s right. Asking yourself what you feel inside (emotionally) and working off of your gut is a good way to start. Every person has an innate desire to do something positive with their life & if it feels like helping someone, then go for it; there isn’t any point in asking anyone else since we each get one chance at life and no one can help us through our journey but ourselves. Sometimes we do things wrong even though we try hard to get them right, but learning from mistakes shows determination. We can learn how to become better people from our personal experiences because they’re ours alone.
Hardest questions in the world
List of hardest questions in the world ever asked in life.
11. Where can I find happiness?
Answer: In order to find happiness, first you must define your concept of happiness as accurately as possible. Remember asking where you’ll find happiness is a sure-fire way to invite disappointment into your life! It’s impossible for anyone else to give it to you or even show it to you. You have all of those answers locked away inside yourself already – they’re just waiting for a key! Don’t ask others about finding happiness because they cannot offer an accurate response; they don’t know what exactly makes them happy. The happiest people in life aren’t looking for things like money & status; they’re enjoying everything right now & getting everything done at their own pace without constant distractions like television & social media.
12. Who are you?
Answer: I’m who I am! Your identity is not based on your past or how others see you. People change over time & so does their perception of you. If someone’s opinion of you doesn’t line up with your own personal values & goals, then it’s probably best to get rid of them. Someone who makes fun of people for no reason isn’t worth keeping around in my opinion. True friendship comes from having a common bond & accepting each other for exactly who they are regardless of any differences that may exist between both parties. Remember there are many different kinds of people in life but no one can tell you exactly what kind of person you are because being you has nothing to do with stereotypes. You have an identity all your own so don’t let anyone else define it for you unless they love and accept every single aspect about who you really are as a person (just as it stands now) without trying to make any changes whatsoever. When friendships come from common ground like acceptance rather than competition, those friends become family members; those relationships will last forever regardless of life circumstances.

13. What is right and what is wrong?
Answer: There’s no such thing as good and bad because it’s all based on perspective . Something which is seen as good in one circumstance might be seen as bad in another since we all view things differently. Our perspectives develop over time & we change with them. One person may see a certain action (or lack thereof) as wrong while someone else views it as right which doesn’t mean one of them is wrong. Everyone has different morals, beliefs, standards, etc., so they’re going to have varying opinions when it comes to what they think is right or wrong. This doesn’t mean there’s any value in questioning whether or not something is right or wrong though since how we view things isn’t necessarily going to have any bearing on reality. It just means everyone has their own sense of morality & what works for some people won’t work for others.
14. How do you know what’s really real?
Answer: Knowing what’s real is simple: it’s what we perceive to be real. Everything we see and hear and feel and taste and smell and everything else which we’re conscious of isn’t just some illusion; it’s what we experience. What’s really real for each person is how they experience things individually. There are many interpretations of reality, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t any truths or anything like that. It simply means different people have varying views on a single topic since everyone has a different outlook. To a degree, no one can say their perspective is more valid than anyone else’s because everyone has their own idea of what truth is. Saying whether something does or doesn’t exist based on someone else’s criteria would mean your opinion becomes invalid by virtue of who you’re saying it to. A better question might be how do I know if something exists? Since an understanding of our five senses & how those senses work makes us aware of certain elements in our lives which define our reality as being solid & without question, but that doesn’t necessarily mean those elements are true.
Life’s difficult questions with answers
15. How do you prove that you are not wasting your life?
Answer: We have no way of knowing whether or not we’re wasting our lives. The best thing someone can do is to figure out what makes them happy & try to do things which align with that in order to be content. This doesn’t mean people should live aimlessly or give up on their goals, but it does mean they should at least find something worth striving for. That’s one of life’s great secrets. People who are successful typically aren’t focusing on how others view them because they’re too busy enjoying their own experiences. You don’t get anywhere worrying about stuff like that. Life will hit everyone with challenges, but if you stick to doing what excites you chances are good you’ll be more than happy with how your story plays out.
16. Can anybody know everything?
Answer: Theoretically, yes. Knowledge is limitless & there are always new things to learn, but we’re never going to be able to know everything since we can’t live forever. Knowledge is also subjective because what one person sees as valuable isn’t necessarily going to be seen as such by another. It’s all about perspective. If someone wanted to become an expert on something it might take a lot of time & effort, but they could theoretically do it if they set their mind to it. But even then they may only know how others interpret certain information instead of knowing for themselves. Also read: Deep intellectual questions that mess with your mind.
17 What if everyone else is wrong?
Answer: Everyone will have varying opinions when it comes to different topics, so what if everyone else is wrong? Has no value in my opinion. There are times when people choose not to agree with majority viewpoints or don’t side with specific groups just because of their position in life/society/culture/etc. But that doesn’t mean they’re ignoring evidence or otherwise questioning reality. It means they have an alternate perspective. Let’s say everyone else thought color was blue & for some reason I said it was yellow. If I explained why I thought color was yellow then others would be aware of my perspective & might even change their stance on things. On the other hand, if someone simply rejected everything other people believed without any rhyme or reason then I would question how credible they were since truth doesn’t depend on public opinion. The same goes for rejecting scientific knowledge.
18. Are we making our lives simple or complicated?
Answer: We’re making our lives complicated. Humans love to do things in overly complicated ways. We like shortcuts even when they don’t exist & we like to add additional things for no reason because it gives us something else to do or feel like we’re progressing in some way. Our everyday lives would be much simpler if we embraced less…If we focused on fewer tasks & fewer activities we’d ultimately have more time & be more relaxed since so many of our daily problems can be attributed to never having enough time/money/resources/etc. You can get a long way by simply embracing minimalism. It’s not about living with nothing, but instead focusing on doing what matters most without getting caught up in meaningless details. It all comes down to managing your time effectively by working on necessary tasks, eliminating non-essential ones & avoiding distractions. There’s no sense overcomplicating life unnecessarily just because we’re attached to unnecessary elements such as busy work, social media, news stories etc.
19. What does death feel like?
Answer: We don’t know. Death is a concept we’ll never be able to feel since we won’t ever experience it, but there are many people who have given explanations for what they think death feels like. Some say they had near-death experiences. However, the last thing we feel might just be our brain shutting down which could explain why people see bright lights at times. That said, some also claim they had visions during their final moments. It’s hard to say if these experiences are real or not, but either way it doesn’t matter because they can’t tell us how it actually feels. Life isn’t about being dead or living through something so terrible that your entire life flashes before your eyes…It’s about enjoying what you have & living with purpose & direction.
20. What is the ultimate truth?
Answer: This is one of those unanswerable questions. If there were an ultimate truth, why wouldn’t everyone already know about it? Let’s say someone told us what it was then what would be our next question? It’s essentially a never-ending spiral of possibilities because humans are naturally curious. However, I don’t see any point in asking unanswerable questions since they only lead to more unanswerable questions. What good can come from pondering concepts we’ll never comprehend (if indeed such things exist)? We should instead focus on how we’re going to use knowledge/truths we do understand. For example, if science tells us something new about life/reality then we can use that knowledge constructively instead of thinking what if life isn’t like that? or why can’t science prove such things? We have enough people in society looking for answers so let them do their thing. The truth will always be whatever we want it to be. To some people, truth is whatever they believe it to be.
