Why go on living?

The point is what you make it.

I have a large-animal sanctuary. Because of what I do, these cool critters get to live out their lives doing cool critter stuff instead of being killed and eaten.

Sure, maybe it's not curing cancer or bringing peace to the Middle East, but it's something.

Go find your mission. (Hint: it ain't slaying pussy.)

Because breathing is pretty cool.

Work to get money. Money gets me experiences. Experiences bring me knowledge, enjoyment, fulfillment.

Once you get to a point where you have kicked most of your goals, you then turn to improving the lives of others which is a very satisfying endeavour. Each to their own though.

Why not?

Mooj: Andy, don't let them bother you. It's ok not to have sex. Not everybody's a pussy magnet. You are, ah, what are you, 25? Andy: I'm 40. Mooj: Holy shit man! You gotta get on that. Life isn't about sex. Life is about children, and passion, and spirit! Andy: Yeah, life's about passion. Mooj: It's not about fucking and balls and pussy. It's about love. Andy: {sighs} Mooj: It's about people. It's about connection. Andy: (nodding) It's all about connections. Mooj: It's not about tossing salad. It's not about cock and ass and tits. Andy: (uncomfortable) Hm-hmm. Mooj: And butt hole pleasures. Andy: It's not about butt hole pleasures at all. Mooj: It's not about these rusty trombone, and dirty sanchez. It's not about rainbow showers and camel-toe slide, and your Cincinnati bowtie, your Arabian goggles or the hot carl and pearl necklace, or pussy juice cocktails, and the jagged-head dildos, and the double-decker pussies. Andy: (scared) OK. I, y'know, double pussies and-- Mooj: Shit stained balls, and cum swapping, and the hanging brain, it's not about the rattlesnake wiggle, and the alligator fuck house, donkey-punching, the tea-bagging-- Andy: Mooj, just please stop.

You have to figure that out for yourself

Because a dopamine kick is better than no dopamine kick.

Because we're the impossible mathematical spawn of life that shouldn't exist. Embrace it. Live through the impossibility to its full extent.

There is way more to life than love

Religion. Knowing that you're here for a reason and that someone is looking at you pushing you to keep going is my key to living happy.
