Mine was no uncommon experience. I had read too much positive science and lived too much positive life. In the eagerness of youth I had made the ancient mistake of pursuing Truth too relentlessly. I had torn her veils from her, and the sight was too terrible for me to stand. In brief, I lost my fine faiths in pretty well everything except humanity, and the humanity I retained faith in was a very stark humanity indeed. This long sickness of pessimism is too well known to most of us to be detailed here. Let it suffice to state that I had it very bad. I meditated suicide coolly, as a Greek philosopher might. My regret was that there were too many dependent directly upon me for food and shelter for me to quit living.
--Jack London, John Barleycorn



:jesusmagic: it's our only hope

more seriously i wish solidarity lessened the pain of it rather then extending the suffering to a greater extent.

life is nothing but obligation and perseverance

He's just going through a phase. Try to give him his space. He'll be over it soon.

It all makes sense now. He's only coming over to my place to try and seduce my girl, and when the rejection happens, his plans will come to fruition and he'll successfully seduce me.

Perfect sense...

I'm onto you, Nox.

I find meaning in work when I go to the grocery store to buy food and put gas in my car.

I find meaning in life when I see someone I don't know and they give me a big smile.

You know you could plant seeds in the ground or go kill deer and eat for free, right? Did you know that you can use some of those plants to make ethanol to fuel your car? Is working just so your nice things don't get taken away really meaning and purpose? Or is it mainly fear? Does fear give purpose?

:lol:

You did. Probably multiple times. A 5th of liquor and 4mg's of xanax every night at that time made it so all I remember is a few heart to heart conversations while we were both equally fucked up. Parts of them anyways.

But not to worry. I will show how to manipulate women into sucking your dick. As long as you promise only to use it for good. .... :rasta:

I've worked in agricultural research for 25 years, so yes, I know how to grow food. 

I've enjoyed my long career in plant breeding. I live in an apartment, so I don't have a garden.

I think you've completely avoided the meat of what I wanted to get at. Whether or not you're planting things in the ground or working behind a desk for your things is ultimately irrelevant. I probably shouldn't have even typed the first two sentences.

Gratitude for what I have provides meaning for me. I personally don't fear things being
taken away from me. I know I'll lose the people in my life I love, or they'll lose me first.

For many people, fear does provide purpose! Just look at the volatile US political climate.
Fear is one way people avoid their misery & despair. Fear is cheap, easy, and over-rated.

There are many more been and gone then there could ever be now.
What does a legacy mean anyhow. 
Are you striving for real change and what would that look like.
Will your actions last once your inevitably out of sight.

Will the universe be more or less once your gone.
In time nobody will care.
No matter how brightly your light shone.
So why do we play fair.

We strive as though there is a finish line.
As if there will be winners.
That we can reach it in time.
Purposeful intent creating sinners.

Gluttony of self importance.
Hypocrisy of self impotence.
We allow ourselves delusions of grandeur.
Perspectives of nothingness seen as slander.

I am not important and neither are you.
This doesn't mean an easy shot through.
You see the choice is to strip away the lies and too look deep inside.
Then without validity, love like a mother when their newborn cries





If you can get over or ateast reconcile the meaningless of your existence(not easy or common) fear becomes just another fabrication.

Popping past the seal of "surely there must be"gives freedom to explore without hangups is amazingly confronting and freeing in equal amounts.

Tell your friend that next time he tries to apply a "neccessary" meaning to something ask him why he asked the question at all.
Keep digging into that until you laugh.

You don't "find mening" no you find THE Meaning.

Your life has purpose, and you may be astray from it or on track ewith it, but your mission is to find it and fulfill it.

The Torah story of Noah which echoes in the Bible and Qu'ran is of Noah who was called by his innermost heart to build an Ark, and warn the people that a flood was coming.

The people pointed fingers and laughed.

Then the rain came.



Find what your innermost heart instructs you to do for this life, and do it if it is safe and sane and doesn't harm others.


Find "your Ark" and BUILD IT.





There us something benevolent, life affirming inside of you, all your life, offering subtle attraction. Your heart wants it, your mind may object.

Thats the one.
