Is life worth living? Sometimes, I feel like my life is not worth living, and Im just wasting my time. Im not really happy and dissapointed in the life that I'm leading. Does anybody feel the same?

There are many people who ask this question or would like to ask it. Leo Tolstoy, the great Russian writer, wrote a short story entitled "Where Love Is, God is". There is a line I already remember when I hear people ask about purpose in life.
(The main character, Martin, is speaking to a traveling preacher)"
""I no longer even wish to live, holy man," he said. "All I ask of God is that I soon may die. I am now quite without hope in the world."
The old man replied: "You have no right to say such things, Martin. We cannot judge God's ways. Not our reasoning, but God's will, decides. If God willed that your son should die and you should live, it must be best so. As to your despair ? that comes because you wish to live for your own happiness."
"What else should one live for?" asked Martin."

Same purpose as all other living creatures I suppose. We just make things more complicated. Born.... educate... work... reproduce.. die.
