What is the purpose of your life?
Yes I know, it's a heavy, pound-cake topic for a light and frothy Monday morning but deep philosophical questions wait for no man!
See I was just wondering how many people out there feel they know what they're life is for, or why they could / should / would be existing on this earth (in 50 words or less).
Some folk could see their lives in terms of religious purpose, some will just snort and say, "I exist, so, like, whatever man!", others will go into a wild panic when you ask them and start mentally circling themselves with questions on life, love and liberty until they look like a small dog chasing it's own tail and losing badly.
I was wondering if each and every one of us has a purpose or if there's a few with a purpose and the rest of us are just devastatingly gorgeous window dressing? I know a lot of solipsistic people who are busy nodding joyfully at this sentence, thinking how wise I am for something that doesn't exist.
As for me? I've always suspected my purpose is largely to be a side-kick. Provide laughs, make people think, but never be the one who get's the awards or targeted by insane, stalker snipers.
I'm not here to save people, become president, bake apple pies or lead us all into a new age of spiritual enlightenment.Though I am terribly good at reading maps, should any of the chosen one's reading this decide they're still looking for a wing man! (CV to follow).
What's your purpose do you think? And what are you doing to make it a reality? And are you going to eat that last banana, cause if not...
