Have you ever felt like not-looking before crossing the road?
But then instinct kicks in and you end up looking left and right before crossing, after all. -
Will I end up making this thread so depressing today that nobody wants to come in anymore...

Why do we live on?
why not? because we live, we can hope.. and with hope, there can be joy... for if a child who has been born in extreme poverty, in a hut made up of refuse, where his family scrabbles through a mountain of garbage for existence, can have the courage to smile, to have the determination to hope for a better future.. to dare to want to be happy.. we should strive to live on, and seek our own happiness too
If you live for somebody, what happens to the purpose of your existence when that person dies or leaves?
we choose another purpose.. no matter how hard it is, we do.. and really, we will.. because i've seen it with my own eyes when it happened to a friend of the family twice.. and each time, she picked herself up and went on..
herein lies one of the many paradoxical things in our lives.. we can live for someone but that should not be the sole purpose of our lives.. for in that, we could place an undeserved burden on the other and on ourselves which we, may be happy enough to carry, but may ultimately become a burden which is too much to bear...
for love should be liberating, i will walk the path we will take because i choose to.. just like she walks that path because she chooses to.. not because we are obliged to... and if one of us leaves or dies, the other has a memory of where we have been, and will continue the path chosen..
If you live for yourself, what exactly does living for yourself mean?
as like the other answer, it should be tied in with living for self and for others.. the selfish and narrow view would be to satisfy one's own needs and wants.. however, that would be a shallow and ultimately self-destructive way journey through life..
some have found that they find a sense of self-fulfillment and self-satisfaction when they live a life of service to others.. in that in service to others, they find a sense of peace and satisfaction.. something which a pursuit to satisfy themselves only led to a dead end..
maybe "living for yourself" in the selfish term, is a trap to some.. especially those who still believe in goodness and humanity.. but to others, "living for yourself" by seeking to do good, they really do
So... why do you live on?
because i can.. because i want to.. because i believe that there can be joy to be found, uncovered and created for both myself and others.. where in a world, joy is in short supply, maybe in my little way, i'm making this world a better place? i can't do much.. but if i can do some little good and make some people happy even if only for a while, why not? -
But what do you hope for?
For atheists and probably freethinkers as well, there's nothing after death and everything ends there. If you're unlucky, you become fertilizer and food for the hungry; if you're lucky, you end up as unidentifiable ashes in an urn (hopefully with YOUR name and not anyone else's). K, that's just bullcrap. Anyway well, perhaps you have someone carrying on the work you were doing, someone passing on your words of wisdom, someone living on fantastically because of your influence, but when you die, these things cannot matter to you anymore even if you wanted them to. Or, in the end everyone dies anyway so whatever you do there'll certainly be a period somewhere.
Argh. Why do I keep asking this question over and over again.
But all that said, it's not like I've given up or anything okie? I'm still alive and living. Maybe a reason I live on is to find out why I live on. Ha.
Well ah, my uncle's words somehow called out a phrase in my memory... somehow.
The money you have gives you freedom; the money you pursue enslaves you. -
We live on to experience and share our joys.Originally posted by MooKu:Good morning.
First question of this Tuesday:
Why do we live on?
If you live for somebody, what happens to the purpose of your existence when that person dies or leaves?
If you live for yourself, what exactly does living for yourself mean?
So... why do you live on?
We dont live for anyone. But that someone may seem like the sole point of purpose. And if that person is gone, cherish the memories you guys create and left behind.
If you live only for yourself, then you have wasted a life. -
