The Question of the Lost Questions

"Working to make our survival easier has become a reason for living by itself and we have forgotten, bit by bit, the primordial question. We have forgotten that we still don’t know why we exist!"

                      - James Redfield

      I wonder how many people ask themselves this question? And how many are too busy with their day to day life to even care why they even exist on this planet?

      Studying the people I come in contact with, I noticed that a vast majority thinks that they live to go to school, get a degree, earn a living, find a partner, get married, make a few children, grown them up, see them settled at their own home, and then? Then what? Die? That’s it? Is that all there is to life? Really is that all? There has to be more!

      Sometimes, I wonder, "what does an old man think looking back to the life he has lived and forward to the years he still has to live, looking forward, expecting only to die". This might sound more or less morbid, but it’s a fact of life we have to deal with. What’s life all about, from the moment we are born till our last breath?

      Interesting question, for now I don’t have the answer. At least I have a question. What about you?
