Well here it is one of the days I dread most out of any other a monday. Which means my weekend of resting is over. Now I have to go to my job for eight hours. I strongly dislike my job at the state forest. But moneys money I need to pay for college somehow. But today wasn't so bad at work. It actually seemed to go by rather quickly. I had to go put up fencing in fire lanes around horse trails. So that any horse back rider doesn't wander away from the trail. Well that means I had to drive some posts in the ground and attach a plastic fencing to them.
It was tedious due to the amount of fencing that needed done. Not to mention just last week I took all the fences down. So that they could disk up the fire lanes. Well anyways that went by rather quickly my hands are a bit sore. But thats to be expected I guess. I worked with a decent supervisor today. She at least doesn't work me like a slave. Anyways changing subject dramtically.
I was sitting at my ten o'clock break. Reflecting on how my girlfriend and I. Have been together for half a year now. I was thinking of the things I used to care about and all my normal nightly passtimes. When I realized that before Julia. I spent my time caring about what anime I'm going to miss tonight for some odd reason. Or what video game should I buy? Well it occured to me that my life right now is far better than before. I'm actually happy and don't spend my time depressed like I had before.
Anyways onto my point. Somewhere in those thoughts my mind drifted to the meaning of life. A very big subject I know but after thinking on it for a long time. I think I came to the conclusion that ultimately the meaning of life in it's pure and simplest form is love. Our whole point to existing is to give and recieve this to others. You enter life because of love between two people. You then continue through life loving others and getting loved.
Without love in your life you don't really live. You just simply exist without love your life has no meaning. You simply are there alive only feeding your basic need to survive. If there was no love within our society it would without a doubt fail. The basis of civiliazation is to live and coexist in one another. Feeding out needs to love and give love to others. Without it we would simply only care for ourselves. Going on our need for survival we wouldn't bound and accordingly society couldn't exist.
Now looking at this from a religious point of view. You exist because of God's love for you. I'm using god as a general name for all dietys. I'm not going to preach and religion over another here. Anyways back to my point. You come into this world because of God's love for you. You live and exist to learn this emotion. Your ultimate goal being to give this wonderful gift to others and back to your creator.
Well now thats my person opinion on lifes real purpose. I'll just recap here real fast. Your here to love others and inturn recieve love. Your whole point in being is so that you can realize this emotion for yourself and add to the cycle of love. From your friends and family and onto higher beings depending on your religious beliefs.
Alright I got that wrote out and out of my system now. So well now for the rest of the night I'm looking at waiting for my girlfriend to get online. So that we can talk! I really miss here at this point after a long days of hard work and can't wait to talk to her again! I'm just going to venture around gaia or perhaps get offline for a while to pass the time untill I'm able to talk to her. So I'm submitting this now and will update again if I feel it's needed.
