The Purpose of Life
The Purpose of Life
'Why do we eat?' 'Why do we sleep?' 'Why do we work?' The answers we would get to these questions would be similar. 'I eat to live.' 'I sleep to rest.' 'I work to support myself and my family.' But when it comes to what the purpose of life is, people are confused. We see their confusion by the type of answers we receive. Youths may say, "I live for booze and bikinis." The middle aged professional might say, "I live to save enough for a comfortable retirement." The old man would probably say, "I've been asking why I'm here most of my life. If there's a purpose, I don't care anymore." And perhaps the most common answer will be, "I really don't know!" How, then, do you discover the purpose of life?

The Purpose of Life . . . Some would say it's "To distribute as much worthless spam as humanly possible. Note that I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt, but that may be a mistake on my part. In any case, there's zero chance of receiving any true enlightenment by visiting the web site you're pushing. Better to read something by Bombay's very own homeboy, Salman Rushdie. The Satanic Verses would be enlightening, or one of his other books, such as the one this was lifted from: "Insults are mysteries. What seems to the bystander to be the cruelest, most destructive sledgehammer of an assault, whore! slut! tart!, can leave its target undamaged, while an apparently lesser gibe, thank god you're not my child, can fatally penetrate the finest suits of armour, you're nothing to me, you're less than the dirt on the soles of my shoes, and strike directly at the heart." -- Salman Rushdie (from The Ground Beneath Her Feet, 1999) |

It's to gain knowledge and seek happiness regardless of what other people say you should believe in. I have strived long and hard to get to the place I am. You can live without without purpose If you chose, I've got a lot more to see and do. -- Would thou choose to meet a rat eating dragon, or a dragon, eating rat?
