doesn't it bother you that everyday you wake up feeling like **** 6:00 in the morning doing preparing for work/school, doing the same thing you did last time, always bored, and then you go back home to do more work and get ready to do the same tedious routine for the rest of your life, Why? so that you can support yourself and be able to do the same routine all weekends feel short, it just goes on....and on....an endless loop of hopelessness....

From that perspective life seems overrated ;)

I thought exactly the same way a year ago, and sometimes I still do

I try to live a virtuous life, no stealing etc.

and sometimes I wonder? what would change if I started stealing? or drinking?

but yeah, I guess what I'm trying to say is, we all think that sometimes, and sometimes you just have to try to think positively

Not really, it's the plain truth.

Well, if you think of life like that, it would get you down. But why would you? I know that, no matter what I do, I'm going to have an affect on someone's day, week, month, year or life in general. Knowing this, I enjoy life immensely. I might be here for a blip, but the fact that I have that opportunity to make one's life easier or harder by my actions is enough to make me want to live life to its fullest.

Too much zen arcade listening? :P

I must agree though, most individual lives including mine seem to at least some degree, rather insubstantial when it comes to purpose. I've sort of come to terms with the idea though, and I just find myself thinking there's probably more things that would be missed out on if we die early, and if we do, then what has really been accomplished? It is all so terribly sad though.

I think that thinking in itself is rather pointless and will only make you feel worse. Find a single solution for everykind of problem and then use it whenever you feel like thinking about something. I choose Baseball bat, fixes everything without thinking! :D

It might not matter to you when you die but what about others? try to do something that could change the way life is in this world. but enjoy life while you still have yours. and i heard that scientists are trying to work on something that could extend the human lifespan to around 200 years. probably won't happen but again please enjoy life..... or else:twisted:

That's why you act in a fashion that encourages positive progression. If your actions influence those of other people, then your ideals can sort of live on through other people.

Nearly all have asked themselves what the point of life is. I have so many times. Even my older brother. In fact, my brother tried to look for the meaning of life. Even going through every religion. Finally he picked up the bible and told himself, "If this doesn't tell me the truth, I'll kill myself." Guess what, he found truth in it. He repented (asked God for forgiveness and turned the other way) and received Jesus Christ as his saviour. Then he was saved by grace (which means undeserved favor).

God said that if you're guilty of one sin, you're guilty of them all. We are all guilty and deserve hell. However, God said there is a way out of that, by accepting Jesus Christ into your life. So, there is a point in life, and that is to be God's child.
