That seems more along the lines of instinct, as opposed to a point. As we are beings capable of decisions far beyond those of most, if not all other currently known life forms, we (unfortunately depending on one’s reference) can choose to not reproduce/live. Since the choice exists, and one can actively pursue it, I believe it results in there being no point. Things will continue, regardless of one’s choice, be it with or without the person (or even everyone).
That being said, if you feel that is the point that goes in hand with what gives your life meaning, then I can definitely see where you are coming from.
I do have to ask though; would you say it is caring for a family and the other small enjoyments in your life that give you a drive?

I agree with Chris, I don't think that's the point at all. Additionally, I know many people who work so hard and they can barely afford to pay their bills.With all due respect, I think too many people make money and travel and houses and cars and clothes their point to life. It seems like such a waste.

I rambled, obviously. My point was. The purpose is just TO LIVE. I don't think I have a 'drive" I just love being alive, seeing the world, people etc.

That last sentence is a rather interesting notion, thank you for that. I do not know what it is exactly that I want to try. But I often am resistant to change, so I can try to be more open to it. Maybe something will present itself, thank you.

That is a rather interesting school of thought. But the question still remains, what do you feel the point to be? Even if we are part of something much larger, living or dying shouldn't matter overall for it.

What it means to me is the question I am trying to answer by trying to hear what it means to others. Thank you for sharing.

The purpose is to exist/be alive until we eventually decompose into the earth, beyond that, I can't really say outside the philosophical. Which in itself is philosophical.

I am a very indecisive person, so this speaks quite a bit to me, haha. Thank you for sharing.

Meditation makes me very anxious. The notion of clearing my mind makes my mind even more congested with stressful thoughts. I wish I could though, I can see how it can help.

@chrisbojin the next time you give it a try, chant "hu", as in hue. Just 5 to 10 minutes will do. And don't focus, allow things to flow.

Simple and very nice. I have to say, I am a little bit envious. Thank you for sharing.

As far as I have said so far, there is no overall purpose. Just what people feel to be theirs (in other words their drive). Other than that, I do not know what exactly to say... :/

Fair enough, I can see where you are coming from for that. People relying on you can help make things a bit easier, even more so for kids and grandkids (etc.).

I feel like I have more to do-places to go, people to meet and I don't feel old. My friends are younger than me.

I had a moment when it looked as if my expiration date was coming due. It was a scary week while I waited for the test results to come in. I cried a lot. But I also decided that if I was sick, I wasn't going to seek treatment, and I was going to eat pizza, drink all the vodka I wanted, and start smoking again.

As it turns out, it was a growth, but it was benign... I go back to that often, and wonder what I would feel like if it went the other way.

I am in university studying chemistry. I do not know what I want. I don’t even know if I am happy doing what I am doing. I am indecisive about everything, and often overthink. Though, once I figure things out (if I do), I will try to work my hardest to achieve it (it is very hard for me to work hard without a goal in mind). I appreciate you sharing your story, and it is quite an amazing feat to overcome such an awful disease, I am glad you pushed through and were lucky and strong enough to overcome it.

Haha, well. Let’s hope that that doesn’t happen. Thank you for sharing!
