Meaning to Life

is the 'right thing to do'. Even if we did learn from our mistakes through the generations, there's only so many mistakes to be made on a personal level. Then what? Will God wipe our slates clean anyway, as if we had died and lost all our knowledge? Or do we get a whole new set of things we must learn? If those were out options, I would strongly propose that we barge into God's office and tie him up. Let us work the controls for a while, eh? Another popular belief to the reason of life, is to 'find yourself'. This one, I find particularly amusing.

I do not wish my opinions to shout out at people, 'THERE IS NO POINT....DIG YOURSELF A HOLE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE'. Killing yourself, you see, is equally as pointless as life (if anyone thinks of any new theories, please let me know). Don't be depressed, I have not been talking about 'life as we live it'. That, is co...
