C'est la vie que j'inhabite.

Life to me, is just a selected period of time, in which the living thing chooses to do what it wants. I don't think there is a greater purpose to be fulfilled, I just think that you're born, you live, and you die.

When people ask, "What is the meaning of life?" or "Why are we here?", I think to myself, we're here because we were born, because our parents reproduced, and their parents reproduced, and so on. As to the creation of our universe, I'm not very sure. I think that we weren't just created from nothing, or "dust", I think that we evolved, as did every other living thing. I would personally believe that there was something that created the universe, whether it be a greater being or a Big Bang.

I would also take the view that there is something out there, something greater than us, and something that influences day to day life. I guess that some people would call  it "luck" and "science", but I would say that it's something single, and existent. I don't know if there is an omnipotent, omniscient, omni-everything being out there, but I found from experience that things generally tend to get better, after time, if you will it so, and in my case pray.

When I say "Life is about doing what you want", people misinterpret me and say that it's a selfish view on life and that I'm disregarding the outside world, but I would say that if you want to help people, then help them, if you want to shoot people in the face, do that. That's your life, and the world won't stop because you choose to do either of those things.

Personally, I feel that my life isn't worthwhile unless I do help people. Everyone needs a legacy to live on after they die, and I would think that my life isn't amounting to much if all I'm doing is waking up, eating, breathing, and sleeping. It may sound like a complete contradiction, but I don't consider a selfish life to be a life I'd consider living in. I would find it far too lonely and materialistic.

In regards to philosophers, I wouldn't pay much attention to them. I find that I can explain my views on anything I need to, and if I can't, I'll form an opinion based on my experiences. I have always had a problem with people telling me what to do, it's why I always skipped swimming lessons as a child.

I wouldn't claim to know even half of the world's mysteries and problems, but I don't see much point in wasting time on theories of experiences and parts of life that I have, and possibly will, never experience.

Although, I'm sure I'd contradict myself if given enough pages to write.
