QUOTE(The Envoy @ Aug 27 2010, 12:13 AM) Life's purpose is the purpose you give it. Life itself has no properties - it is empty - devoid of anything true.... and ultimately, our main purpose is to be happy...  some try to get it from self satisfaction from achievements, religion, family, luxury etc |

QUOTE(adrian1984 @ Aug 23 2010, 02:24 AM) They don't even question their purpose, but human do. We human question on inner search, when you reach on top of maslow`s hierachy... But MOSTLY, people will ask..... "what`s the point of being so difficult(as in struggling to survive, to make ends meet)?" Added on October 3, 2010, 9:05 pm QUOTE(teongpeng @ Sep 5 2010, 12:32 AM) to be happy is a desire, which ironically, serves no purpose. Yes.. I`d suppose the concept isfrom buddhism right?  Frankly, as long as I remember, I once stared to the sky and wonder, why do I exist anyway? and what lies before me? what is the purpose in life? and undeniably, religion serve its role of giving mankind that artificial reason to move on... a reason that you cant deny...
