What Goals do you Seek through meditation?

Clarity of mind, reduced anxiety/ stress, awareness of other spiritual realms, unity with the universe, purification of the mind, pure awareness/nirvana, etc..

most definetely.
for me, it is mostly letting go of the choas, if only for a moment to connect with your inner, true self. to keep in contact is the best thing to do. humanities worst mistake was loosing connection with ourselves.

While one is meditating, one shouldn't be seeking any goals at all...
One should probably be constantly meditating, as well.

I try to avoid impure thoughts about Icelander

You're on a roll tonight. 
How much did it cost you? 

Personally, I openly embrace impure thoughts about Icelander... in fact, "embrace" is a good word... specifically, this definition of it "To take up willingly or eagerly". 
 Peace.

To sit in one spot for a really, really long time. I sit to sit. Then I stand up so that I can stand. Sitting is great when that is ALL that you are doing.

I can see it's time to bring back the cuddle parties Veritas and I used to host, but take it to the next level. It's ok with you guys if Veritas joins in right? She wouldn't be too happy about me fooling around without her. 
This is on topic right?

This is all a little too cozy for me!

I think you already know the answer to that question.

Actually, I don't meditate enough, or ever really. I am very undisciplined.
I should add that to my to do list.
Discipline!
I feel like a certain level of discipline could be very beneficial.
I need to get my health, mentally and physically to be more impecable. Not to say I am under average in either category really, but I feel like a clearer mind and body would lead to a clearer life.
So I would meditate for a number of reasons, namely to be with being.
