A thread to post quotes on the purpose of life.

This is my fave and well, I wrote it when I was in a horrible matter. I wrote it today.

"Why live a life in a bad way?
Why live a life in a good way?
Why live life at all?
Why?
Because, life is a gift, a gift of courage and love. Life may be bad at times, but why would God create a bad life?
The answer is No, and we must accept that. Dont take life for granit because it just might take you for granit.
The life you live in now, is a good life, no matter how bad or evil you are, because you have hope aside for you.
All you need is a light and a pickaxe because life is like a mine, you have to look and try to find the purpose
and always, always, you will find the answer in the end and let me tell you, the answer is good."
 
" Damned if you do , Damned if you don't "
 
"I am what I am. And that’s all that I am."
 
“Dream as if you'll live forever, live as if you'll die today.”

James Dean
 
"the rain fell all night and it kept me awake
it was still falling by morning.
it was hard to take.
and you were sleeping on the floor,
breathing free and even,.
if i ever want to drive myself insane,
all i have to do is watch you breathing
and at 5 AM, i turned the radio on,
and an old mans voice sang a short sweet song,
and then the static roared again hungry for blood
i heard the rain falling from the rain spout
down down into the sweet wet mud,
and you punched out all the windows
and the wind began to wail
and you gathered your hair behind your head
like god was gonna catch you by the pony tail,
and then the old voice crackled through the static.
and i felt young and alive
and the hair stood up on the back of my neck
we were rising from the grave, yeah yeah."

"Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life."
 
“God didn't promise days without pain, laughter without sorrow, sun without rain, but He did promise strength for the day, comfort for the tears, and light for the way.”
This is, by far, my perennial favorite of all I've ever heard. It's helped to remind me that no matter how awful life gets, all that's necessary is to turn back to God. So long as we have the breath of life in us, we have a chance for hope, purpose, and redemption. So, our destiny should be to pursue those with all determination, and live in selfless obedience, not selfish ambition.
 
Even Though Today Seems Crappy, Tomorrow's Gonna Be Worse ;)
