I swear life is really complicated. It's getting worse and worse. None of it even makes sense. We live to die. Unless you believe in some form of afterlife which I personally do not. I would hope for one, but I just can't believe in it. I remember having such a negative attitude towards life. I wrote my thoughts on it. That everyone is the same, that we're all part of a giant, soulless machine. That there's no point, that suicide is the key, not in a depressive way mind you, I'm rather happy, but what is the meaning of life. There is none, because there is no meaning in something that is not eternal. That's my opinion of course.

I mean, I'm not trying to find a deity, I'm not in search for life's secrets. I want the point of my life. Though that may very well be what you meant. Logical fallacies? Mm out of curiosity do you mean fallacies such as the "straw man" or logic in terms of life? I'm trying to find my religious views, I may put more focus into this search now. Primarily I want to find what I believe. My purpose to life..actually I know what my purpose is. It's to adore someone and to love them. Doesn't everyone go through this struggle? Although honestly I haven't seen many my age think about these things much or at all. Ahead of the game? I wouldn't say that.

That's very true, but I'm not sure. I feel there's so little control because of say family. And of course society sets so many boundaries..though it's primarily the family boundaries. How has everyone here managed to do it?
