If nothing matters it is there to make it matter.

The point is, we don't know why we are here at all.

One could explain this away with many a vain theories, but in the end it all boils down to the real existence -

1. how are you feeling now?

2. is it good and pleasurable? Or is it hurting and painful?

3. if it is good and pleasurable, can you transfer that feeling to other beings? Or you'd rather keep it to yourself, pretending that you have achieved some higher state of consciousness, though you have not achieved it actually?

4. If the feeling is painful - how can you, for God's sake, pretend to be a proponnent of something that does not really ameliorate suffering in this world, but simply ignores it or refuse to accept it as an something that really hurts other beings?

I can never abandon my belief that life does hold meaning and that we are in constant search of it. Read 'Man's Search for Meaning' by Victor Frankl. That book has helped me put my life into context and see that there is inherent meaning in existance. You can put humans under the worst possible conditions, strip them of their life (not biologically speaking, i mean profession, house, etc.) dignity, family, body, and mind, yet they don't give up. Read accounts of concentration camps..you can't get any more hopeless and meaningless than that, yet people survived. I can't hold the pessimistic attitude that life holds no reason and realizing that it means nothing will open up a world of possibilities...it's the exact opposite, meaning does not limit your exploration of life, it only expands it. We don't have the right to give up and say it's pointless. If you truly believed that, you would've killed yourself long ago.

Receptors in the brain bringing knowledge. And I say this because I was going to say that knowledge brings forth emotion but that's false because you already have it at birth as you cry and laugh as an infant not knowing what anything was until your brain could capacitate the information little by little until you progress to learn more giving more capacity to intake what you read hear and see.

To experience knowledge.

Everyone needs a solid, steadfast goal where he's heading at.


Experience is just that - experience.

It does NOT bring us any closer to what the real state of affairs is.


Experience also can be wrong. Experience can be falsified bt the inner being. It can be what one wants to happen or experience, not what one IS and WILL happen as a result of his/her attitudes/actions.


Experience can be downright false.

yeah but that doesn't take away what you experienced or what you are going to experience.



I saw a gorgeous man this morning. He seemed all gay to me!

I thought I could approach him in earnest, and start a new relationship.

Alas, it was just my imagining things. The guy isn't not gay at all.

Can you draw any conclusions fro this?

i cannot draw any conclusions to what you experienced for i did not experience it.
why do you need to come to a conclusion for this?
