i really struggle with this attahment that people have to life and our purpose. dont misunderstand, i would like to live for a bit longer but when it happens it happens.
we seek a purpose - some form of permience - to justify ourselves. we waste so much time i just think we should all learn to 'be' |

If chocolate didn't melt, how would anyone have come up with "chocolate milk" or "hot cocoa"?
Nah . . . the world is renewed precisely because chocolate melts away.

Yes, but for what purpose does life strive to reproduce?

"Transitory" could be its meaning.

"Life" in general has no purpose other than surviving long enough to perpetuate itself.
Greater purposes are individual to the species, with homo sapiens possibly striving to find other purposes in life besides basic survival and reproduction.

Things are transitory; life is forever. The difficulty is making the two one.
