What's the Point?


What is the point of our life?

That question can be asked in a macro sense as well as a micro sense.  The macro sense being seen as a collection evolution and the micro sense can be seen as an individual evolution.

Both approaches are simply conjecture and one's opinion.

From a macro sense, I would suggest that our life should evolve towards perfection, from the standpoint of what perfection means to you.

Is that perfection intellectual or technical and scientific and would it include knowing everything there is to know and becoming disease free, thereby living forever.

From a micro sense, I would suggest that one's life should revolve around being the best that you can be relative to your own standards, not the standards of others or by comparing yourself to others.

I would also suggest that one should ALWAYS treat others as they want to be treated, meaning an end to competition and jealousy.

A start to make this happen, would be to stop being greedy, or grow with inflation so that you never fall behind or never get ahead...  you simply remain constant while improving yourself in other areas:

  • Respect for life
  • Respect for nature
  • Respect for all animals
  • Respect for people regardless of class, culture, gender, race, beliefs, or education
  • Desire to learn one new thing a day
  • Desire to have an open mind
  • Desire to live a healthy life
  • Measure twice, cut once
  • Be grateful for life daily
