No matter how much money you make or how many friends you got, you're still going to die anyway. Poor or rich, attractive or homely, we all gotta take that dirt nap eventually. Lately I've been thinking about this more and more to the point of almost obsessing over it. All I do is eat and sleep all the damn day, I feel like I'm on the verge of a breakdown and, God forbid, suicide. Can anyone give one good reason to continue this road we call life? Anything at all?

Here's another thing; I have no dreams or goals. Most people I tell that, don't believe me. You would think that surely everyone has at least one goal in life, but I have none. Zero. Zilch. The last time I had a dream of any sort was when I was in elementary school and wanted to be a zookeeper. But I've grown up since then.

Yes, God forbid.
People are driven to desperation by the pointlessness of life. There is only one way out and that is to assume that the God who created you exists. God changes everything. Without God there is no purpose and therefore no meaning and therefore no point.
“Unless you assume a God, the question of life’s purpose is meaningless.” –Bertrand Russell (philosopher, mathematician and atheist)
You can hold true that God, the One who created you, exists and seek Him even if you aren't certain that He exists. To seek God, to know God, to have fellowship with your Creator is the only possible answer.
Other people, but apparently not you, can deceive themselves or busy themselves so they can make it through another day without real purpose.

It is not about the beginning or the end. It is about the journey in between. We each learn with every new experience.We have good times and along with it the bad ones. But the journeys and rewards that we will receive in the future makes living worth it. We never know what is around the next corner. But if we never step around that corner, we will never know what is there. The one thing that you want the most may be just ahead in your path. Do not think that you are alone. At times, we have all had those same feelings. Think of the good things in your life and the dreams that you have. Just keep pushing for those dreams and don't let anything get in your way. Good luck and keep your chin up.

The point of life, is having an amzing damn time,don't commit suicide or end your life. I know life can seem not worth living but I admit it (I AM RECKLESS AND HYPER I DO DUMB STUNTS FROM JACKASS AND CREATE MY OWN, I OBSESS OVER MY GOALS AND FRIENDS) Life is fun! I think life is mainly about accepting God and living for him and teaching others his word. I recommend you try reading the bible. Religion ROCKS. MAYBE YOU JUST NEED A POSITIVE INFLUENCE! I KNOW I SOUND LIKE SOME OLD PERSON, BUT TRUST ME. MAKE FRIENDS the bottom line is, surround yourself by good friends, who support you and care about you, find kick *** music and the rest falls into place. When you have God you wont have to take that DIRT NAP, so to speak. Please take my advice.

Life is there to be enjoyed while you can regardless of what happens at the end. No-one knows what will happen in the end so why worry about it.
Have fun in the meantime.
What else is worth doing?
