    Have you found your purpose in life, yet?

    Have you found your purpose in life, yet?
    Have you found your resolve to do something great with your life?

    Have you chosen a path to follow?
    What are your final goals in life, or what goals do you wish to accomplish through out your lives.
    Like "Why you're here" or "What am I suppose to do".

    It's sort of like asking the meaning of life for yourself.

    It could be either Good or Bad.

    Or are you still looking for your answers?

    I know most of you are still young, but have any of you guy/girls put any thought to this?


    I want to see what someone else's goals are if any, and the comments of others.

    I wrote this thread to compare and contrast them with my own. I want to try to broaden my own goals, and adjust them for the better.

    Interesting topic

    Have you found your purpose in life, yet?

    I have found paths in my life I wish to follow, whether they are my complete goals is yet to be decided.

    Have you found your resolve to do something great with your life?

    Not yet, right now I am concerned about getting in a situation where I do not need to worry about finances and the like.

    Have you chosen a path to follow?

    Right now I am still learning, I want to carry on with the traditions my Northern Ancestors held dearly as well as provide a better tomorrow. I want to encourage Eugenics as much as I can so people do not have to suffer what I have been through, if I ever have kids I will do my best to give them the best future possible. I plan of moving to Sweden as they have the highest quality of life, most of my interests come from there, it is close to Norway which I feel is my real home. Plus they have the most beautiful women in the world.

    What are your final goals in life, or what goals do you wish to accomplish through out your lives.
    Like "Why you're here" or "What am I suppose to do".


    Other than what I have stated, I do not know where I see myself in the next 10 years and what will be my life accomplishments. I have always wanted to write my own novel and I started it but I didn't have it saved so I have put off writing it but I do remember a lot of it and plan to re-write it. I also hope to record my own music, right now I do not think I have the ability to write something great but I shall continue to practise.

    It's sort of like asking the meaning of life for yourself.

    It could be either Good or Bad.

    Or are you still looking for your answers?


    I think I will never know what I am looking for until I have found it.

    I know most of you are still young, but have any of you guy/girls put any thought to this?


    Only for the next 10 or so years, I have no clue what I will be like as an old man, but I would rather be "Hated for what I did" than "Forgotten for what I didn't do" if you get what I mean. I guess one of my goals is to get my name written down in the history books along with Adolf Hitler, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Varg Vikerness etc...

    I want to see what someone else's goals are if any, and the comments of others.

    I wrote this thread to compare and contrast them with my own. I want to try to broaden my own goals, and adjust them for the better.

    As I pretty much said, I am trying to find myself too but I think I have also gained a bit of perspective through my experiances.

    I don't believe people have specific purposes in life unless they struggle massively to make it so that they do.

    I don't believe I will ever make myself a purpose in life. I have small goals here and there, but if I never complete them, then that's fine. I try not to expect too much of life so that I don't feel like shit when it doesn't turn out how I want it to.

    Haha, gimme a break, I'm just a teenager. In the long-run, I have nothing I specifically need at the moment. Except money. I'm trying to save my pennies. I'll need someplace to live too, someday...

    Nope. Don't get me wrong, I have loads and of loads of career options, and I know that I could probably fulfill most of them if I put my mind to it. I just don't know which one is "mine", so to speak.

    I'd like to travel the world. That's probably the one I want the most.

    To die some meangless, pathetic way...

    Or are you still looking for your answers?
    No. I don't expect to find answers, therefore I cease to ask questions about life.


    How about telling us your answers, too, Draken?

    Interesting thread indeed. I'm glad this thread was brought up.

    Have you found your purpose in life, yet?
    Honestly I would have to say no. At this point in my life, I'm not sure what it is or why I'm here in the first place.

    Have you found your resolve to do something great with your life?
    There are some things I thought of pursuing when I get older after I graduate college after going through some tough times I've had. I thought of becoming a cardiologist, a counselor for kids, or something that involves helping people.

    Have you chosen a path to follow?
    I haven't chosen a certain path to follow yet. I'm still young and I'm open to anything that comes my way and learn about it or experience it.

    What are your final goals in life, or what goals do you wish to accomplish through out your lives?
    I wish to be truly happy and know that I made somewhat of a difference to people in my life. When I'm older and when I have kids, I want to not see my kids go through what I went through as a child. I want overcome many fears that I have in my life and I really want to know who I really am.

    Or are you still looking for your answers?
    I definitely am.

    I know most of you are still young, but have any of you guy/girls put any thought to this?
    I do all the time. As I get older and since this year I'll be turning 17, I have a year left to decide on what I want to with my life basically. I think about many things actually, but definitely this.

    Have you found your purpose in life, yet?
    Yes, my one purpose in life is to guide people, in every way and aspect. To guide people to a better path, it may seem impossible, but I am one person that has made the impossible seem like nothing to those that know me in real life.

    Have you found your resolve to do something great with your life?
    Yes, and chances are not many will know.

    Have you chosen a path to follow?
    Yes, I have chosen a path to follow.

    Or are you still looking for your answers?
    Only a few.

    I know most of you are still young, but have any of you guy/girls put any thought to this?
    Of course. I have put much thought into this, enough to figure out a few things here and there at least.

    Nope.

    They only thing that makes me feel alive is performing on stage. So I do it. *shrug*

    Have you chosen a path to follow?
    Yes, and it's not yours. Trust me.

    What are your final goals in life, or what goals do you wish to accomplish through out your lives?
    Rock til I am dead, sex as many people as possible and live life the way I want it.

    Or are you still looking for your answers?
    Nope.

    I know most of you are still young, but have any of you guy/girls put any thought to this?
    Yes, if you were older than me, sure. But you're not.

    No one can find a specific purpose, despite what they say. People make their own purposes and go off that. They make pretty speaches and what not, but when it comes down to it, everyone just wants to be happy. That's all there is to it. As for me though, I've yet to figure out what I need to be happy. So I guess I'll say no.

    Have you found your resolve to do something great with your life?
    The fact that I desire to be content is all the resolve I need. I can't give anything more specific as I haven't figured out what will make me happy yet.

    Have you chosen a path to follow?
    Mine.

    What are your final goals in life, or what goals do you wish to accomplish through out your lives.
    Like I said, I just want to be happy.

    Or are you still looking for your answers?
    Like most people my age and beyond, I don't have a ****ing clue how to be happy, so yes, of course I'm still looking for answers.


    I've said it before and I'll say it again: we're just living so that one day we can die laughing.

    Until now!

    "something worth living for is something worth dying for"
    that's my philosophy, and what I'm willing to die for is God, Jesus Christ. I'm willing to die before denying Christ, and more so try every single day to walk out what the Bible teaches and live my life according to the Bible
    Have you found your resolve to do something great with your life?

    I believe if i am going to do something great in my life, it'll be worth waiting for and working hard for, and letting it come in it's own time

    Have you chosen a path to follow?

    Yeah, Jesus Christ's path, to best i can


    Or are you still looking for your answers?

    I always have questions, i think we'll all have questions and they'll all be answered when we die

    I know most of you are still young, but have any of you guy/girls put any thought to this?

    I'm 21 and I'd say I've put a lot of thought into the meaning of life and what life really all boils down too, what's the real core to having a good life, and i believe through my meditations that having a good life is having a good heart, because if you're a good person, you'll be remembered for being a good person so what if you're poor? I'd rather be poor and have a big family and a few close friends than having to push some of my friends out of my life so i can have a great job that pays well, money doesn't bring happiness, just brings comfort.. I think a really good movie to get what I'm saying is to watch Family Man.

    Have you found your purpose in life, yet?
    I think it is really conceited of anyone to think they have a specific purpose in life. We are animals, and follow basic instinct. My purpose in life is the same as all other animals: reproduce and provide for an eventual family.

    Have you chosen a path to follow?
    Despite my last bit, there are paths I want to take. Right now, I have two goals: Getting an education and partying as much as possible. Obviously, this will change in my future.

    What are your final goals in life, or what goals do you wish to accomplish through out your lives?
    Realistically, I would like to carve out a nice piece of a professional career, have a family, and a good social life. Beyond that, are the unrealistic ones: Have success in music and become rich.

    Or are you still looking for your answers?
    No.

    I know most of you are still young, but have any of you guy/girls put any thought to this?
    No. It isn't really an issue.

    I have at least one thought on this subject at least once a day. I keep wondering, wondering what I'm suppose to do, Is there a purpose for my existance... and so on.

    I know I'm not at the end of my list yet, so I can only answer the questions as to what I learned about myself and the world.


    Have you found your purpose in life, yet?

    I have an idea of what I should do. I decided that I should help and protect people from any means of mistreatment and as much violence as possible. I have seen people getting pushed around and decided that if they don't have an example to show them the right way and stand up to problems in the world, I should be that example. And in turn, I threw my pride away. It didn't matter if I lost the fight, the only thing that did, was showing them I wasn't afraid, and others shouldn't be either.


    Have you found your resolve to do something great with your life?

    My resolve clarified my purpose even more. I want to keep the innocent from being tainted by the fallen. I saw several children kidnapped in large department stores at different times. When I couldn't save them, I looked at those who could, but didn't. They just ignored them, and went about their business. My resolve came after seeing that. I decided that when others do nothing, I'll stand up and defend those who can't.


    Have you chosen a path to follow?

    I'll defend and protect the innocent and try to keep them from being tainted by a corrupt world. I'll show others the right way either by letting them see me do it, or by giving them my hand and pulling them up.

    What are your final goals in life, or what goals do you wish to accomplish through out your lives?

    If I live long enough, I'd like to open an orphanage, because I was an orphan a long time ago. I want to teach them that agreeing with the majority is not always right.

    Or are you still looking for your answers?

    I'll probably never find all of my answers. I found some, but the list is not complete, and probably won't be until I'm dead.

    Many want to just make themselves happy, saying screw everyone else. They ignore others' pleas for help, and act as if they heard nothing. That's not right, but that's how the world acts most of the time.

    Many others don't help, because they're too afraid to try. Some see and do nothing because they are unsure of the outcome. "Will I be injured?"; "Will I be doing wrong?"; "Will I do anything at all?" They only need self-assurance of what to do in order to do something at all. It's not their fault; it's no one's fault. They just need someone to show them the way towards the light.

    I can't make them help; I just try to show them they can if they try. I'll give them a helping hand and reveal to them that that is the way to true happiness.


    For me, I decided that I won't ever be truly happy. I can't, I've seen too many people's lives be destroyed by others to feel 100% happy. Until this world realizes that everyone is equal in every way, true peace can never be attained. Only the next best thing; living with a peace of mind and hope for the future.

    "There is never a bad peace or a good war" - Benjamin Franklin


    So I'll keep fighting and striving for a true hope for the world.
    I know it's futile, but that's not going to stop me.

    People help others to make themselves happy. Don't try to decorate that. No matter how good or how selfless your actions are, you're only doing them because your inner self is telling you it's the right thing to do. Satisfying your own moral needs is a way to make yourself happy and therefore everything I said remains true. And before you say it, even if helping someone doesn't make you 100% happy, if you feel it right to help them, you'll still feel happier than if you ignored your morals.

    Until now!

    I haven't found my purpose in life, but I've made one for myself. That's how I roll. There's no one who can tell you what to do, and if you constantly listen to what others say, you get nowhere you want to go.

    So, I do my own thing. It suffices as my "purpose".

    About the big questions, I haven't found answers; and I don't expect to in this lifetime, simply because I don't think we're meant to know.
    But they will come, I think.

    They will come.
    I remember when you were happy with a RADISH.

    Did someone spoon-feed you that? Cause that is pure bullshit. Are you going to live you're life and praise a man that was delusional? Jesus did live he was slaughtered because he was insane.

    I hate religious hypocrites, there are fun to fxck with ~ might be because they lie alot, and they hold faith in something that isn't real or tangible.

    Aiselne; this is an official warning for flaming/flame-baiting.

    The rules are blatantly obvious, yet you continue to break them.

    Please refrain from your rule-breaking, as you may well be fast running out of chances here. Please check out the rules, they're not too strict.

    Thanks, no replies will be made to this post, or warnings will be issued.

    Yea, heh, maybe your right. Maybe in helping others find happiness, I'm searching for my own happiness that I lost long ago...

    My own resolve to defend and protect others, is... because I think I want to be forgiven. It may sound like something that Cloud said, but it is true. I let several of my friends disappear because I couldn't stop them... I let a little girl down not and was unable to save her... and several other incidents too.

    Helping others and protecting them is my atonement for what I couldn’t do. My hope that others will be saved, confirms that I want to be happy. Without happiness as a goal in life, I think you loose your real self. If you follow the teachings or goals of others, and don’t find your happiness, than that is not your true resolve.


    Yep, in the end, I want to be forgiven..., by them at first, but now myself included.

    I think I just redefined my own resolve.
    Maybe in being forgiven through my atonement and repentance, I'll find true happiness somewhere on my road, where others intersect. Whether it be in the middle or the end, I think it’ll be there, waiting for me, along with the happiness of those I meet along the way…

    Have you found your purpose in life, yet?

    I've found a purpose of sorts, but I doubt it's permanant. As I've said before elsewhere, there are certain people who really bug me in society. People such as over violent ice dealers who're willing to sell it to the younger kiddies. My purpose is to either change the way these people do things, or cause enough rukus for the real authorities to take notice. I'd also like to make sure I have a lot of fun along the way.

    Have you found your resolve to do something great with your life?

    I have. But for me, it's more a a feat of will. I will never give up for something I truly believe in. Sure I will bend to keep others happy and stuff, but ultimately if I see something as being the right thing for me to do, you can consider it already done. And I have a habit of not being able to stay dead.

    Have you chosen a path to follow?

    I have, and I believe it has already been summed up through my actions. I support freedom, and the individual, but within reason. Some actions are unjustifiable. Order is need but cannot have a stranglehold.

    What are your final goals in life, or what goals do you wish to accomplish through out your lives?

    I want to be happy, I want the world I live in to be a better place. I want as many mates as I can get my mitts on, and I eventually want the world to be peaceful and understanding. I know I'll never see that happen, but it's a great goal to strive for.

    As for now, it's getting past my higher school certificate.

    Or are you still looking for your answers?

    I look for some answers still, but that's mainly as there are so many questions. The biggest questions I ask myself, are if I'm doing the right thing, and if my actions are really justifiable.

    I know most of you are still young, but have any of you guy/girls put any thought to this?

    This is one thing I really focus on. I feel the need for purpose, but I wish for it to be valid. And I'm not fully sure my purpose is all that valid yet...

    i thikn i have onyl i just dont know what to do. my parents have one standard for me as i have another and its hard for me to choose which one to follow.


    Have you found your resolve to do something great with your life?

    i know what i want to do. i want to be an actor/singer. but ive only realized how i really want to help people, but i dont know what to do or which career to take.


    Have you chosen a path to follow?

    well obviously no, this is the decisoin that will change my life forever, and the whole time ive grown up wanting to be an actor it wasnt until the very end that ive had mixed feeling about my future and this is very hard.


    What are your final goals in life, or what goals do you wish to accomplish through out your lives?

    in the end of the day i want to be happy. but i dont want to be selfish only doing what is good for me. i really enjoy helping people as much as acting and im in such a delema.


    Or are you still looking for your answers?

    most definatly, maybe i could be a daycare teacher partime during college.


    I know most of you are still young, but have any of you guy/girls put any thought to this?

    ive put more thought into this than anything else in my life to this moment and i dont want to end up making the wrong decision.

    Have you found your purpose in life, yet?

    I think I have. I have been told by psychologists and counselors that I have a profound understanding of how the mind works, why people react to things the way they do and ways to help alter someone's thinking so they can see things from different points of view. I plan on getting a minor in psychology and become a free counselor for teens or anyone that needs it. However I will also have to pay the bills so my major in college will be Information systems management.

    Have you found your resolve to do something great with your life?

    I don't ever see myself making one big mark on the world. I hope to make lots of little marks. It's really all the little things we do. For example, helping someone carry groceries to their car even if you've never met them before. That one good deed not only makes their day brighter, it may inspire them to help someone else.

    Have you chosen a path to follow?
    A path? I don't follow one set path. That is too constricting. I make plans for the future but I am a go with the flow type of person. Things happen in life and nothing ever goes to plan. Sometimes you can get back on track but other times it's just easier to go where life takes you.

    What are your final goals in life, or what goals do you wish to accomplish through out your lives.
    Like "Why you're here" or "What am I suppose to do".

    Like I basically said above, I want to help people however I can. I don't like to just throw money into charities. I want to be right there with someone helping through a hard time, or like I said above, just helping them carry their groceries.

    are you still looking for your answers?
    Like I said, I am a go with the flow type person. Where ever life takes me I will go. My plans for how I want to help people might change. But the fact that I want to help never will.

    Have you found your purpose in life, yet?
    Not really that sure, but I think, at the moment, my purpose is to finish my studies.

    Have you found your resolve to do something great with your life?
    Yeah. But there are so many things that I'm good at that I fail to be the best in a certain field. I don't want to be just another mediocre student who never contributed anything to something or somebody.

    Have you chosen a path to follow?
    Not yet. I'm still searching... patiently.

    What are your final goals in life, or what goals do you wish to accomplish through out your lives?
    I just want to live a life good enough that I'm able to support those who have supported me in the past. When I finally come to an age that I can be independent, then I'll return the sacrifice my parents took for me.

    Or are you still looking for your answers?
    I'm still young, so there are still a lot of questions that need answers.

    I know most of you are still young, but have any of you guy/girls put any thought to this?
    I put a lot of thought into everything, especially this kind of thing.

    Have you found your purpose in life yet?
    Although I am probably older than almost all of you here, throughout the years, I have found that what I have done the best at is helping others. From a very young age, I was always the one to 'run to the rescue', so to speak. So maybe that is what I was put here to do. Who knows. When we are young we all have so many different things that we dream of doing, but unfortunately rarely get to do all of those things. So I don't know if a 'purpose' is the correct word to choose from, but I do believe that we are all here for a reason. And one reason for all in my opinion would be to be good to one another to make the world a better place.

    Have you found your resolve to do something great with your life?
    Not really. I guess I just take each day as it comes and hope that each day is better than the next.

    Have you chosen a path to follow?
    The straight and narrow path has worked out pretty well for me. I try to enjoy life the best that I can and be thankful for every extra day that is given to me.

    What are your final goals in life, or what goals do you wish to accomplish through out your lives?
    Again, at my age, certain dreams and or goals are long past and gone. But I know that I can look back at many different stages of my life and know that there are so many that I have helped, been there for, and hopefully left my mark of being loving, giving, and caring, so that those that have been a part of my life may one day do the same for someone else.

    Or are you still looking for your answers?
    No. I have no reason to search for any answers. Again, for whatever reason I am here, I've done the best that I could possibly do to be a decent person and respect those around me.

    I know most of you are still young, but have any of you guy/girls put any thought to this?
    When I was a teenager, as most do, there were the dreams of being rich and famous. Then as each year passed, and as I matured, I didn't dream as much. I just live my life from day to day, and whatever comes my way, I will take it on at that time and hopefully it will be an exciting time. Don't get me wrong, I think all young people should find something in life to do that will make them happy and they can enjoy their work. That's the smart thing to do. I just chose a different path, but can say that there is very little that I regret.

    Have you found your purpose in life, yet?
    Hmm, interesting question. I have found something that i believe that will help me have a purpose in life and that is through writing stories. It helps me to connect with my imagination and allows me to safely let out my emotions. Plus, people have said that they like my writing, which is always good

    Have you found your resolve to do something great with your life?
    Yes, most definitely. End of next week, i graduate high school and im dedicating the four moths of holidays i have before uni to start writing a novel

    Have you chosen a path to follow?
    Kinda, i'm going to uni to study to become a secondary school teacher. But i'm aiming to open and live more as well, after living 17 years of predominate isolation and shyness.

    What are your final goals in life, or what goals do you wish to accomplish through out your life?
    To be a successful novelist, a good friend and to meet that special girl who i want to spend the rest of my life with.

    I know most of you are still young, but have any of you guy/girls put any thought to this?
    Most definitely, ive been thinking about it a lot lately, especially now that i'm moving out into the real world. It's both an exciting and frightening concept. But i look forward to the challenges

    Have you found your purpose in life, yet?

    absolutely, yes i already found my purpose in life!

    Have you found your resolve to do something great with your life?

    yeah, i can say that it's not really hard, yet al lot of people will say it's hard and unbelievable when they not try it yet in the first place. I can also say that this is not only takes as ong as im alive but it also for where am i going after that...
    i got peace, love and joy!

    Have you chosen a path to follow?

    yes, i do! i chose to live in a simple life (for most people think) and i don't have to be famous or be something to be great, it's all about the end of our life and not of what you gain here in this world... (i'm not against of all ambitions we can get here on earth, but we ought to consider when we are about to get done on here...)

    What are your final goals in life, or what goals do you wish to accomplish through out your lives.

    well... i want to serve the Lord by becoming a vessel to others that thought they are hopeless.. i want to be an encourager to tell them about the Lord Jesus Christ...i want to show to them that there's still hope when things are tough...even though many people will going to say and treat me something that is humiliating and makes me hurt. I want t love more people because God loves them (even though they don't realize it) i want to be a counselor to help them emotionally...

    It could be either Good or Bad.

    it could be bad all the time, because people can hinder it, but it will be so good and rewarding when it's time...

    i don't care what would others say, but i do believe that someday, it's all worth it... how can i work so hard in this world if i will just leave all of them when i die? think about it...

    Have you found your purpose in life, yet?
    Yes, I have. A psychotic on no doubt, but it's a purpose no less.

    Have you found your resolve to do something great with your life?
    I should hold my tongue here as well, I am in every sense psychotic, and could easily be thrown in a nut house.

    Have you chosen a path to follow?
    Yes, I have chosen to stay to myself and increase my own abilities, friends aren't necessary.

    What are your final goals in life, or what goals do you wish to accomplish through out your lives.
    ...Sigh, annihilating the human race, and the earth along with it, the only way to annihilate a species quickly is to annihilate their only home. That or just be a videogame programmer, storyboard writer, or just a personality charter...
    It could be either Good or Bad.
    In the eyes of the beholder, good for me bad for them. However, the latter is mostly just a win/win.

    I should answer carefully:

    Have you found your purpose in life yet?

    Most definitely, yes. My purpose in life is to learn, maintain things and to move in and out of various systems.

    Have you found your resolve to do something great with your life?
    I should say that I've found the resolve, but not yet used it. Doing something great takes perfect timing and I'm somewhat lazy.


    Have you chosen a path to follow?

    Philosophically? Yes.
    Ethically? Yes.
    Morally? No.
    Professionally? Yes.


    What are your final goals in life, or what goals do you wish to accomplish through out your lives?

    Goals are easy to piece together and easy to knock apart. A Taoist does not have what is traditionally considered goals. I have a definite direction that I am gravitating towards, but no, I'm not challenging life to defeat me.

    If I were to dare to set a goal it would be to continue for as long as I can.

    Or are you still looking for your answers?
    I'm always still looking.

    I think I need to redo this a year or so after my last post. Things have changed quite a bit.

    Have you found your purpose in life, yet?
    Currently I feel my purpose in life is to live well, have fun and hope it rubs off on others. I find I'm a lot less self righteous than I once was, but I still can be to some point when riled up or provoked. Either way I seem to not give a shit nearly so much as I once may have. Also gaming. Gaming gives fun and joy to an at times dull life.

    Have you found your resolve to do something great with your life?
    Yeah, if by great you mean nothing special. I'm happy, my friends are happy for the most part and who needs to save the world or something if everything's cool?

    Have you chosen a path to follow?
    I have, and I wouldn't have it any other way. I decided I like to live as I do as there's good money, low stress most of the time and I can generally live quite happily and comfortably.

    What are your final goals in life, or what goals do you wish to accomplish through out your lives?
    There's a lot of people I want to meet, a lot of drinks I wish to consume, a lot of games I want to play and in some cases beat and I hope to one day just live a fairly simple life as part of a family. Sounds pretty sweet.

    Or are you still looking for your answers?
    Not really, no. I do still get curious about a lot of things, but if I can't get the answer at least semi-easily I'm quite likely to just not bother caring anymore.

    I know most of you are still young, but have any of you guy/girls put any thought to this?
    I used to, but now it seems kind of pointless. If you've found happiness more or less, why would you need anything more?

    I did this once before, by my ideas changed, as I mentioned would happen in my original post, so I'm going to redo it.

    Have you found your purpose in life, yet?
    Nobody will ever find their purpose in life, because in most cases of living humans, the mind never stops working. If the mind works, ideas flow, and if ideas flow, purposes change continuously.

    Have you found your resolve to do something great with your life?
    Choices that you make with your life are what get you to do great things. In order to do great, one needs to make the right choices. I haven't murdered or raped anybody, so I'm pretty sure I'm making the right choices.

    Have you chosen a path to follow?
    I will never choose a path to follow, because everybody is different, and therefore, all paths are different for every individual. So by that theory, paths in life don't necessarily exist. How can I choose something that doesn't even exist?

    What are your final goals in life, or what goals do you wish to accomplish through out your lives.
    The furthest I look into the future is about a week. I don't see myself in a year, let alone 50 years. I'll let time work that out all by itself.

    Or are you still looking for your answers?
    There are no real answers.

    I know most of you are still young, but have any of you guy/girls put any thought to this?
    I put thought to it by asking what is the purpose of a baby who dies a few days after birth? Is it's purpose in life to poop a few times, cry a few times, and then keel over dead? That's why this "purpose in life" crap pisses me off. What makes people think that just because they're alive, they have a purpose? What about the destiny of that innocent baby?

    What about the homeless drug addicts? Was their purpose in life to become addicted to drugs, and shortly afterward, to lose their homes, to eventually freeze to death on the chilly streets of New York, or Chicago, or Philadelphia? Purpose doesn't exist, and anybody who says differently is an egotistical asshole. When no more people are suffering, go ahead and say that purpose exists, but until then, I will not buy your bullshit.

    Have you found your purpose in life, yet?
    I honestly believe I serve no purpose, beyond the fact that my mum and dad wanted a child, and that I was the result of that. I may have no purpose, but I have reasons why I want to continue life. I want to understand so many things... what is it like to work hard, be lazy, to fall in love, to grow to hate someone, to have kids, to growing old, to achieving something... I want to experience everything at least once.

    Have you found your resolve to do something great with your life?
    The last few days have pushed me to look into the future and determine what it is I want. And, out of everything I thought of, I would put having a child right at the top. Haha, I don't want one NOW, but maybe in 10 odd years from now. I think that will be the greatesrt thing I could do.

    Have you chosen a path to follow?
    I'm fed up with the amount of paths I can choose, so I'm zig-zagging all over the place. I try to stay on the good ones though - trying to avoid the bad stuff.

    What are your final goals in life, or what goals do you wish to accomplish through out your lives?
    Haha...

    - Have a child. I have great things in mind for them - and names.
    - Fall in love with someone I can trust 100%. No more heart break.
    - Become a games designer with my own studio. I DO have names sussed already. ^^
    - Dangerous sports. Oh yes. I want to sky dive, bungee jump, white water raft, climb a cliff without gear... you name it, I'll do it.
    - Stay positive, no matter what shit comes my way.

    Or are you still looking for your answers?
    I have many questions, and each answer I'm given leads to a chain of many mre questions I want to ask. So... yes.

    I know most of you are still young, but have any of you guy/girls put any thought to this?
    100% thought into this. I love thinking of things like this, and ways you could view discussions like this - through religion, philosophy, basic ideas to complex ones... Not a day goes by where I'm not thinking of something like this.

    Have you found your purpose in life, yet?
    I think i'm really close to finding this. Ive finally figured out what I want my major to be when I get into school in the fall. I guess i'll take it from there and see.

    Have you found your resolve to do something great with your life?
    I'm already writing a book,although I havent even finished the first chapter and its been like 2 years almost,guess i'm looking for my muse. But yes I do wish to accomplish great things with the career path I choose.

    Have you chosen a path to follow?
    I know i'm on a path,yes. So I guess thats a yes but I am still debating some things but for the most part i'm pretty content with myself and the way things are going as of late.

    What are your final goals in life, or what goals do you wish to accomplish through out your life?
    Meeting the right person and someday have a family,I also want to have a successful career and perhaps have my book published someday.
    I know most of you are still young, but have any of you guy/girls put any thought to this?
    It's been on my mind a bit lately probably because when summer comes I need to sign up for school for the fall and all that jazz so its really been on my mind.

    Have you found your purpose in life, yet?
    Honestly, I had believed earlier that I have found my purpose in life. It, at the time, made me happy, and now I have no purpose. Yet, everyday I search for that specific function that I was made to be for.

    Have you found your resolve to do something great with your life?
    I have always been told that I would do something great in my life. Being raised on greatness, I only wish for simplicity. I don't want to save the world, I only want to be happy, and be with the friends I have.

    Have you chosen a path to follow?
    I have no specific path in life. I dont plan any step in my life, and I simply take in the day as it comes. I've learned that planning too far ahead is usually a bad thing.

    What are your final goals in life, or what goals do you wish to accomplish through out your lives.
    I havent thought too much on my final goals. I do know that I want to learn how to play the Super Mario theme song on Piano, though.
