What is the purpose of being alive if there is no purpose? The purpose of being alive is to live, not to be an observer of human life.

When I was younger, I used to think of my life as a series of meaningless “stages” in a movie that I was watching. I knew the story was about something, but I didn’t care about it in the way you’d care that this woman is getting married to a guy she met on an online dating site.
