I'd be careful, the spiritual world is very real. In the bible we are told that the battle is not against flesh and blood, but against rulers and principalities - demons! That was a demon laughing at you because it knows that the reason for Earth is to be used as testing ground for us to have to use our free-will to choose:

- worship and have a relationship with God

- turn away and worship other things like money, intelligence, power, fame, pleasure, self

Jesus Christ is the way the truth and the life. The harder you seek him, the more spiritually attacked you will be - test this and see.

You can read more about the meaning of life in Ecclesiastes 1 in the bible:

```

“Everything is meaningless,” says the Teacher, “completely meaningless!”

What do people get for all their hard work under the sun? Generations come and generations go, but the earth never changes. The sun rises and the sun sets, then hurries around to rise again. The wind blows south, and then turns north. Around and around it goes, blowing in circles. Rivers run into the sea, but the sea is never full. Then the water returns again to the rivers and flows out again to the sea. Everything is wearisome beyond description. No matter how much we see, we are never satisfied. No matter how much we hear, we are not content.

History merely repeats itself. It has all been done before. Nothing under the sun is truly new. Sometimes people say, “Here is something new!” But actually it is old; nothing is ever truly new. We don’t remember what happened in the past, and in future generations, no one will remember what we are doing now.
