I've not figured it out myself. I occasionally think i've got it figured out but that passes.

Have you got it all worked out?

Yes, I was. I don't know what "Abortus" has to do with it.

If you're talking about abortion, I guess my folks couldn't afford it. That or I was born for the lulz. Personally, I figure the second one.

Why am I here? That's a difficult question. Perhaps I have been sent on a divine mission and I'm unaware of it, perhaps I am merely the product of a random world, or perhaps I don't even exist and my ostensible perception of things is just a phenomenon caused by much more absolute and cosmic things.

I guess that thus far my purpose in life has been to help others realize their own. Even now at this moment in my life when I've decided that I have to focus on myself more, I realize just how much I truly thrive off showing benevolence to my friends and family.

No, I insist. My purpose destined since birth is to ensure the evils and moral degradations that are homosexual marriage, legalized abortion, and the like are wiped off the face of the earth. Only then can the rapture of the holy begin and I will be lifted back to heaven to serve alongside Jesus in His kingdom. It's true, it is.

Wait! I just realized, that's my purpose - to feed, water, pet, take to the vet, medicate and otherwise cater to my feline overlords - Tessa, Sophie and Emma. They give my life meaning and purpose. Without them, I'm simply a wandering human, a bit of biological detritus adrift on a sea of useless endeavor.

All hail Bastet.

Perhaps it can be viewed as such. Though with the way I see it, when my actions benefit others in a healthy way I notice that they tend to pass on the feeling of "goodness" that I feel whenever I myself have helped them. As such, it creates a ripple effect. Ghandi had a saying: "Be the change you wish to see in the world."
For me, that is reason enough for me to be here on this Earth.

Because mom and dad had a good time.
Your nation is like a son. What it does right is your merit, as well as what it does wrong is your fault. When you praise it, be lucid and avoid exaggeration. Praising it too much can make it indolent. On the other hand, when you criticize it, be harsh, but do not ridicule it. Do your best to improve it, not through derision or disdain, but through good examples and dedication.
