You are right, but not entirely. There is no universal one true reason to exist. You exist because, you do. But there is also no reason to really fall into despair over that fact. There is more to life than just plain existance. Everyone just forges their own reason to live. Some live their passions, some live for their families, I just live because there is even less reason to die really, and I have hope that someone will give me reason to wake up every morning, go to work and do my best. I think you should too.

Read for daily dose of existentialism. On an honest note, well written. I empathize. I personally have never found myself stuck in a rut trying to find the meaning of life and purpose; the closest I can relate is that I do not enjoy doing nothing. As in just sitting around not really doing anything. Not because I constantly need distraction from some profound and potentially grim truth of existence, but because I just don't like wasting time. I could sleep in bed all day as it is the weekend, or I could sweep the house and feel proud looking upon these clean ass floors every day. That's time put to good use.

This is tangentially about a video game, but not really at the same time so I decided against posting it in the video games discussion. Gonna toss it in here instead. I'll warn you now it's long and doesn't have any meaningful conclusion, it's just me pouring my thoughts out.
