Do you ever just think about the fact that you are one in 7.53 billion. So you are essentially just a spec. A little spec among billions of other little specs on a big small spec with a bunch of other specs in some big black area with gas and dust and stuff. I don't know about you but that kinda makes me feel like nothing and totally irrelevant. But if you are religious and have faith then I guess life is just a test to see if you are worthy of going to heaven? Was that right? I personally am not religious and always had a hard time understanding religion and how heaven could be “anything you want it to be” (a summer camp leader) and bits like that. I guess I just always believed in science and evidence of evolution and stuff, maybe that's just because thats what makes sense to me . But to each his own I guess, whatever makes you happy- because what is the point of life if you don’t have happiness. So is that the purpose of life to live a happy life best you can and do your best to do good for other people? To make the world a better place, then die?
I believe that to live a life worth living, you have to have purpose. With your purpose you will find the motivation to fulfill what needs to be done to feed your purpose and to keep it relevant and alive. If you stop working for that purpose it will die as any other living thing would without care. Be it big or small, if it matters to you then that is all that matters. For myself, I have always know what I was interested in and I hope to be able to do those things in my life. By doing those things I believe that I will find my true purpose in life- eventually. Today I chose to do what makes me happy and to do what needs to be done so that I will be able to do what I have always dreamed of, even if that means doing math and physics and even sometimes homework. Maybe tomorrow I will be given a choice, one that could alter my life plans and will make me totally rethink my purpose- but I am sure that these choices and opportunities must happen every day. I believe that life can have purpose; if you are truly living life. But if you can't find purpose find meaning. Maybe the meaning will give you purpose, or the purpose meaning. Or maybe it’s just all the same...
