actually the same circular logic applies most people only have a job because there told that thats the norm so they can have the luxury stuff that they dont need (like bacon floss) to fill the points of time betweeen work and sleepteisjm said:circular logic.alinos said:umm i think if everyone spent there time trying to remove the problems you just mentioned they would be doing it for a PURPOSE(fixing the world) and not just sitting around doing nothing till they die.teisjm said:If everyone spend their time trying to fight all the bad things in the world, like disiease, war, poverty, famine etc. Then no-one would have time to make all the things, that makes live mroe than just mere survival.
Life without purpose, be it gaming, sports or kids, is just lik esitting and waiting for death.
A life with purpose purely means to have goals and not just wing it till you get to the end and winging it can often be more of an adventure than aiming for the goals society tells you to Good Job House family etc
"we (humanity) live to make sure we can keep living"
What i was trying to say is, that theres a need for other things than just making maintaining easier.
In most cases, people get a job, so they've got money for food and a house so they have shelter, i know some people love their job, and would keep it if they won a billion in the lottery, but in most cases it's just for maintaining a life. If tehre was no suck "luxury" things as bacon-floss, music, movies, tv's, video-games, sports, nice cars, crack and hookers, beer etc. then people would just work to maintain themselves, and wouldn't need more money than it took, to have a small apaprtment for shelter, and enough food to survive.
It doesn't have to be what society dictates, you can live for whatever you want to live for, be it gaming, stoning or donkey-porn, but living just for teh sake of living sound really booring.
the only way to truly live life to the fullest is to through all the material BS out the window and do whateva makes you happy regardless of whether or not that maintains your life as regularly as you want
it used to be you could get by fairly well without having a fulltime job moving from place to place working when you needed nowadays everything is more regulated and people less trusting of the new guy in town
