life sucks, whats the point?

Answer 1

My favorite is "Like is like a penis (actually, the word used is the one that rhymes with rick), when it is soft, you can't beat it. When it is hard, you can get firetrucked.

Answer 2

Here are a few quotations:

"Life is the art of drawing sufficient conclusions from insufficient premises." - Samuel Butler

"Life isn’t meant to be easy. It’s hard to take being on the top—or on the bottom. I guess I’m something of a fatalist. You have to have a sense of history, I think, to survive some of these things.... Life is one crisis after another." - Richard Nixon

"Life seems to be an experience in ascending and descending. You think you’re beginning to live for a single aim—for self-development, or the discovery of cosmic truths—when all you’re really doing is to move from place to place as if devoted primarily to real estate." - Margaret Anderson

As Butler states, we only have insufficient premises - that is, not enough information to know for sure. Therefore, whatever conclusions we make are made by faith.

I think Nixon highlights that life "sucks" when we're struggling with things in our lives. To me, these struggles are now refreshing because I know that we have to get through the struggles (even if it's only to get us to new struggles). There's strength in looking back and seeing what you've made it through in your life. I wonder how weak and vulnerable a person must feel if s/he looked back on life and found no trace of difficulty and struggle.

And Anderson seems to realize that our journey through life can take us in many directions. By our nature we continue to go in many directions in our lives, but I assure you that there is one direction that leads to life's intent:

As for the point of life, it is for God's glory. God created us and even though we continue to sin, God shows his mercy by still providing us with life - that one day we each might come to realize that Jesus Christ died on the cross for the forgiveness of all our sins and then he rose from the dead to show that those who follow Christ are assured of eternal life. Realizing this has profoundly changed my outlook on life.
