A Radical Dreamers journey through despair: and life in its own form.

Why do we live? I mean really. Why do we live? We were chosen to live. Like a lottery before being born was played. And we were picked to be born. Why? What for? There are no winners in life. We don't get out of life alive. We all have the same result...death.

Stalin, and dorothy from gundam wing, said it best, "One should not fear death. Death is merely the end result given to you at the time of your birth. The death of one is a tragedy, but the death of many is a statistic". The people who have a hard time grasping the fact that all life dies, have never experienced death.

People worry about death because they feel they did not live life to the fullest. Yes you did. Your life was a rat race to nothingness. An episode of reality t.v. all in futility. A radio broadcast on an empty station. You hear people discuss how "Before I die I want to see such-and-such". Why? Your memory will not carry on with you when you are gone.

No one will care if you saw it, nor will you be around to argue with them about this. So I ask again "Why do we live?" I like to think there was life before I was born. As in there are people alive that will never be born. We managed to be born. We will reproduce more of the chosen ones to live, and so on and so on. All we do in life is bring more life into this world, and attempt to impart knowledge upon them. That more than likely they will not follow.

The human race is in fact a dying breed. Well not necessarily dying out, but a race with no true future. Immortality will never occur. All we can do is prolong this life. Again I ask Why? What you do will not alter the future for anything but a time. Time is something we do not have much of. I also like to think that we only make improvements in life so it won't be so hard for people to get to death. Advancements in medicine just so we can be healthy enough to die of old age. So I leave you with the question for you to answer... "Why do we live?" or maybe its "Why do we struggle in vain?"

I'll leave a real comment addressing the above in a bit, in regards to other matters... happy.gif

I know there's a few more words and I will award for "whilst" +4

Revelation: +54points in your second comment without even realizing it! Nice! And +4 for the first comment puts you up to +58.

"Come 'on guys! Let's go to the spatula of doom!"

Whoa.
Stepping away from being all hyped up on bad hotel service and a Chinese restaurant not wanting to serve me because I'm too "white"... That was really good. =) It was perfectly brief and got the point across. I actually enjoyed reading it. =) +100 (you win for today) =)

So hey there Justin, Gwyneth here, (hence the "G"wink.gif. In all honesty I'm glad someone around here noticed the female presence... wink.gif

What you wrote about reminds me some what of my family, the nice one's and then the not so nice one's. Time is so precious and I am sorry I have forgotten who said this but, "You will never be more beautiful than you are now" and this is thanks to time that makes us so fragile and so unique. I think life is rather comparable to one's favorite hobby, it should be done with passion.

But no pressure to others, sometimes mundain is passionate for some. Oscar said it best, "Simplicity is refuge for the complex". But I personally do love spontanious things...

I think perhaps we struggle in vain because of feelings. Man tends to forget that feelings are like the wind and change far faster than any words could ever describe them.

Dilly-Dally, Shilly-Shally, there's plenty of time for 'not supposed too...' and never enough time for now. Today has enough troubles of its own don't trouble yourself about tomorrow. It certainly won't bring it faster...

*winks* Hope to talk to you soon Dylan Fitzgerald. *radio out* btw, I like you're red ritual attire, very cult like... wink.gif
*busts out laughing*

You can try to come to terms with the inevitable death, or you can ignore it till your last breath. Either way, your breath is what matters, present is what is important, someone searching for immortality or to leave something permanent in the universe will fail, that is a hopeless goal. Those who wish to enjoy the present and what life comes to them, can be content.
