What's the point in life? Some say to get rich, some say to be happy. What is happiness? Life is a constant battle for a state of illusionary conrol. Easily sought, never found, and rarely knowingly chased. Quite simply, I am asking, why live? Sarghi |

No offense, Sarghi, but, is it just me, or do you have a lot of time on your hands to think? I bet if we knew the actual answer (if there is one), we'd lead much different lives. Auragon |

I think alot. More than I should. I think about everything. i worry about global warming, I worry about trees, I worry about the plight of the egyptian rat bird. I work out problems to solve great issues, and they are shoved back in my face, simply because it doesn't meet the lawyer's criteria. I write poetry, am published, then am told I suck shit. I love, and the one I love is taken by my best friend/roomate-to-be. I have wisdom teeth removed next week. I have a friend in the hospital. I was in the hospital last week for 2 days. Life blows goats with twinkies. I think too much, I worry too much, and I can do nothing about it. Lord knows I've tried, time and time again.

Well, other then me commanding you too.. If you wern't alive, unless you live like a hermit, someone's life would be altered. Perhaps your best friend would turn to violence because without your guidance they made the wrong decisions. There are lots of reasons to be alive, you just have to find yours. For example, me, I'm here because someone has to be the bad guy - and I'm just so damned good at it. ;> - SoulDemon |

I didn't mean that thinking a lot was a bad thing, I just meant that maybe you should just sit back and have fun sometimes without haveing to think how it would effect the migration patterns of a European Swallow...:) I'd have to agree with Korayn, though...well, partialy. My friends and family are the reasons why i get up every morning, and the thought that someday, I'll have a family of my own to live for.

See...you shouldn't worry. Because-THERE ISN'T A GODDAMN THING YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT! So...if you can't do anything about it, why worry, cuz' all you'll do is tye yourself in a know and just fall over someday. And thats not good. The key to living is to realize your own limits, and STOP when you hit them. Not even tought past them. When something happens, you say to yourself "Can I do anything about this?". If the answer is no, you just don't worry about it. Those are the very words I live bye--the very words that allow me to keep my own sanity.

Thats easy! The point of life is to have fun! Because if we don't have fun, then life is boring, and theres only one thing worse than a boring life-a boring death! Consider an eternity of boredom....not my idear of a good time! I'd go crazy! Prolly start talking to dead cows and the such...and i doubt if they are good at conversation! course, i don't really konw, as i dont make it a habit to talk to cows at all, let alone dead ones...because they stink. Dead ones, i mean..not that live ones smell good, but Dead ones are just disgusting. Except on Hamburgers. Hamburgers are good. Except from McDonalds, i hate McDonalds, its soooo nasty...gives me the shits like you'd never believe!! And i hate the shits....i mean, shitting every now and then is fine but, when its every few minutes, thats just irritating. But lots of thing irritate me..like people who go wwwaaaayyy off topic....eerrrr...what was the question? 68guy |

Sarghi, I'm not gonna spill some useless tripe, because the meaning of life is different for each of us. For one person, the goal in life, the whole reason of living, may be another person. For another, it may be to get out of a life situation they are not happy in. I'm also not going to say "I understand" or "I'm sorry," because while I think I might have had similar feelings, I don't know how you feel. And I know the words "I'm sorry" annoys the fuck out of me. Read "Death of a Salesman" I loved that play, and I found it elaborated on the "american dream" we spoke about on ICQ. ¤Korayn Es'Bael-Alderon |

You;ve seen me "have fun." But of all those times, how many do you think I enjoyed. I want to be ahppy so much, that I am willing to settle for others thinking I am happy. I am not. I have not been happy other than once in my life, for the past 4 years. I forgot what it is to smile. My face is changing, I am almost physically unable to smile. I want to be happy, I just don't know how. Sarghi |

Metallica, now gemme my damn Cookie!! Happiness is achieved through the realitization that everything the world would stress as important doesn't matter for dick. When you accept that aside from love and comfort (which, together, can form the best kind of fun), everything else is pointless. What is the point of money? Comfort. Power? Comfort. Sex? Love. Friendship? Love. Comfort and Love are the only two things in life that matter, and in them one can find FUN. [This message has been edited by 68guy (edited 08-03-99).] |

See, thats jsut it. Everything, every perception, every feeling, everyone. Is an illusion. Now, before you commit me. Allow me to explain. People appear as you see them, and how you see them is how you percieve them, and how you percieve them is what your brain TELLS you to perceive. SOOO, following that logic, you can be happy, in any situation if you merely THINK you're happy. Sorta like believing yourself happy. Its very strange sounding, I know, but its true. There's not any "know" to it. More of a "think". Life is about doing, not just knowing. Intereo Letalis |

Have you considered going to a doctor? You sound depressed, and it is possible to cure that. I went through a stage in my life where I hated life itself. It lasted about two years, and then it ended, just like that. I cant tell you how many times I would simpily break into tears. I cant tell you how many times I considered suicide during those years. I hated every waking moment, but I pulled through. All I can stay is stick with it. It sucks now, and it might suck for another year, but it will end eventully. Life has a way of finding its own path, sometimes you just have to sit on the sidelines and let fate take control. Baby Fen |

*Eats cookie* Now is a good time to mention that that song sucks, as does everything after Ride the Lightening. And Sarghi-the philosphies we follow greatly influence our perception of happiness. I personally believe that everything is set in stone, and free will is a joke. So while i can get depressed, it never lasts, as i realize that i had no control over it, and could do nothing to stop the bad. 68guy |

Sarghi, you know how I feel, we've talked on ICQ about this. You have many people here that care about you very much, and I am one of them. I consider you a very good friend of mine, whenever you need to talk things out, I'm here. I'll do what I can to help bud, but you might want to listen to Fen on this one... I went through something similar as well... Life sucks, that's all there is to it. You just have to learn to like it and your part in it anyway. Even though it hurts and drives you mad. Learning to enjoy life despite it's downfalls is a part of being a success in your life. We are here to help you in any way that we can, but some of it has be learned for yourself...

You seem to think everyone in your family as against you. That's what it sounds like to me. Live to spite them. Have a graet life, do what makes you happy, and when they come to ruin it, flaunt it in their face. Not the nicest thing to do, but it's true. ~Pyke~The answer to life? 42. For the second time today.

First of all, you need to talk to someone. Anyone. The other night when I was REALLY down, I talked to all the people that I really connect w/ here in BH. Your friends are the people that matter. I whole heartedly agree w/ Korayn. You never know what you have in store. When the shit hits the fan, you either gotta clean up the mess, like a big boy, or shoot the fan. Either way, it's not the fan, or the shit's fault. It might not be your fault, either. There is always someone out there that will help you out. When ever I got REALLY depressed, sometimes all it would take is a song. One song I could relate too. Sing the song, be melancholy for a little while, cry while you sing it. Some songs still make me cry when I sing them. Fate's been good to me, OOC. When I got to the point of dying to obliterate myself, I'd find a girl that would help me. Girls are so much more sensitive, plus, they fall for guys that don't like them selves, unless you whine constantly. Fun. Fun is something that only YOU can make. The fun I make is most times Illegal, but it gets your ego goin' and makes you smile. The most important thing is to NEVER quit smiling. If you quit that, you might as WELL die. And don't give up hope. I have before, and I almost did some REALLY stupid shit...but I got pulled out of that, too. Good luck. Morolis Alderon |

Dumb question: Have you told them that what you need is peace and quiet right now? Not hinting. Walking up to them, and saying, "Mom, Dad, if you don't mind, I REALLY need to be alone for a while." Worse comes to worse, spend a day or so at a friends house. If you haven't, try it. If you have, well, get someone they trust and that you trust to tell it to them. ~Pyke~Morolis: Forgot about that. I had a song for me last g'/f, for our breakup, for my life, for when I'm down, and etc. Love most of those songs...except the 1st two. :) Ditto #132 of TBH |
