Time is ticking

@kino life from certain perspectives can be seen as an exercise in futility, a few chaotic decades with no set variable that we call our existance, there are only 2 certains in this time, we will live and we will die, once we die we will be forgotten, the vast majority of people will never be remembered and will only be slightly remembered as an inconcievibly small part of the massive machine that is humanity, there isn't any real *given meaning to life* it just happens.

So just cos no one remembers you it must mean the life is meaningless for most of us who arent celebs?

@kino I'm saying that generally people see life as meaningless because they are nothing in the grand scheme of things, they will not be remembered so why bother?

I think all of us have a role to play

One can't really articulate an objective meaning to life.

Jks

Ok first of all

Happiness is not the meaning of life do we all agree on that

How do you know?

Otherwise

@kino think whatever you want, as is your right, but I believe that each of us has to find our own meaning to our lives,that there is no grand scheme of things, that we all have to make our own paths and make the most of our futile existances

You might as well be on crack 24/7 lol

How so?

Makes you happy

I don't think it keeps you happy, though.

Thats why you gotta do it all the time

Never did it so I wouldn't know

@kino except it won't after you get addicted, theres a difference between making the most of your life and getting a drug addiction

I am sayinf this based on the notion that the meaning of life is happiness

And im sure

Even if you do everything that makes you happy

You would still feel empty

How do you know that?

@kino that depends on how shallow your intentions are

I think there was a study done on this

I saw it on the Ted talk

You basically let people do whatever makes them feel happy

@kino except that only works with surface level desires

No

Not everyone finds happiness in drugs

Some find it in friends and family

@kino I never said you would

I have a hard time believing enough study's been done on people who are allowed to do anything that makes them happy their entire life.

Only a certain period of time, not the entire life.

@kino what is the capital of delaware
