Really wondering this today. What are your opinions? Is life worth it?

Dear SignOfHope,
I think you are asking perhaps the most profound question human beings can ask and hope you get many responses to your post. And it is more that a mere abstract question, isn't it? Although I cannot speak for anyone else, I personally find meaning in helping others, not only my fellow human beings, but even animals. I live in a desert, and there are always some creatures that could use a drink of water or some food, even the ants. When I help anybody I feel somehow at one with the universe. It is very hard to put into words. And there always seems to be some creature that is in trouble. Today I saw a spider stuck in a puddle of water and so I helped him get back on dry land. And there was a butterfly that had gotten itself tangled up in a plant and I was able to free it. A famous philosopher once said that human beings could bear anything if they had a reason to exist. Anyway, that is what gives my life purpose. Hopefully many people here on the Forums will share their ideas. I think that even asking questions, like yours is very heroic. I wish you only the best! Sincerely yours, Yao Wen |

2) You got to learn to live for yourself too I learnt this the hard way.... I learnt not to be suicidal but to love myself even if I don't have a purpose in life.... just to hang in there.... even if there is no motivation.... with the hope that this too shall pass.... what is life but a struggle for existence... and the fittest survive.... |
