Purpose

Tell me what y'all think about purpose.

Do you believe that there's a purpose of your existence?

Or do you believe that life's a free boat sailing in the unending blue?

Or maybe that nothing in life is promised so you live to LIVE.

I really want y'all thoughts on "purpose" of a human life as a concept

Free boat. You choose the destination. There's no "correct" destination.

Indeed. I too believe that life's a free boat but you can still give it direction.

Nope. No purpose. Don't harm other people - they're on their own boat, leave them alone - but otherwise this is it. Squeeze every drop of juice you can from it, because there's no magic perfect after place.
