What is the point?

Every single day of our lives we dream... Consciously or subconsciously... When we're small we are shown what we are supposed to do with our lives... Shown basic professions police, fireman, etc. etc... We are shown how life is once you have worked hard... How you get promoted and become a manager... And we all grow up chasing this dream... The dream to be rich... The dream to live happily ever after...

But there is NO happily ever after... no matter what you do in life you have to make decisions and these decisions (and the consequences of those decisions) end up molding you into a person... A person who has to face life as it comes to him/her...

Why do we do what we do? Why do we live to face life? What is the point of doing what we are doing everyday?

Every night I lie down on the bed thinking of what I have done today... What is the point of doing whatever I am doing... All those childhood dreams of being rich... of getting married... having loads of kids... being a good person... teaching kids... living a good life... They don't happen just like that...

The point is ... we are not doing what we are supposed to be doing... Our purpose is not clear... not when we were children not now... Obviously an arguable statement... I am helping 1000 people in Tsunami, I'm an aid worker... What about the rest 20000? What is your clear purpose? Are u part of a plan? How did you get here? What if there's a conspiracy behind everything being done in this world... What if America had exploded a bomb in the middle of the ocean... The question is Why... not How.. not when... not where... not who... but Why?

You don't have the Why? That is why you are powerless and I am powerful...
