It means that this is a life, you get through it as best you can, making the best choices possible with the information available. If you're lucky, you get it right, if not, you have to keep making choices based on the new information. If you're even luckier, you only have to do it once, if you're really really really lucky, you get a bit of happiness, satisfaction and contentment on the way.

It means that it's all down to luck. 8-)

Unless you mean in Yiddish, in which case I can't help you :lol:

Mark, I sort of know what you mean.

I look around me and wonder what I'm doing here. Not just here, where I'm sitting, but in the Great Scheme of Things. I honestly don't know, and I've been feeling I missed a fork in the road back sometime in my life that I should have taken.

It's not a nice place to be, and I can empathise. I'm currently trying to find a new path for life, but I can't for the life of me figure out what it is I want to actually do.

Take comfort that in the multiverse, you did. You are just not experiencing this *here* .

This is all just normal paranoia, and can probably be classed as “mid life crisis”. ;)

That said, the same questions get asked to myself as well. I managed to turn a hobby into work, and I kind of wonder at times if it killed the joy of it. I certainly don’t write or draw the random crap as prolifically as I used to. I still don’t know if that is a good thing or a bad thing.

Heather and Mark. Me too. It's something I spend an increasing amount of time contemplating these days. I never seem to get anywhere though. Most people I encounter don't get it and think I should stopping moaning/thinking/analysing or whatever. But is palpably something not quite right. And not just with me either....

The purpose of life is to be happy and useful.
It's up to you how you achieve that; it doesn't just happen.
Remember as well that it always possible to be kind, and where you can do no good, then no wrong either.

No, all the bad stuff does though.

I don't like this thread, you're all too philosophical.

Do you want a slightly less philosophical answer?

Ok, how about this...

In life sh1t happens, you just have to try and make the best of it and carry on regardless.

everythings all predicted anyway, I always get (prophetic?) dreams telling me what will happen in future plus I get a hell of a lot of deja vu :x

Altogether now... I knew you were going to say that.

That's all well and good, but unless you know what the prediction is, then it's useless.
And besides, not everything is predicted. The endgame may be, but how we get there isn't.

Try thinking about it in terms of connections with self, others, land etc.

Déjà vu is a cross over point of two dimensions (yes I did mean to type that).

I'm not. You're right, all the bad stuff does happen. There, I said it. No happiness bollocks from me. No "everything happens for a reason". No "it'll all turn out ok in the end". Not even, "life's what you make it". There - feel better?
