If you think your life is pointless, then why are you living? I know it sounds bad but there is no reason for you to live if you feel like you don't want to. Celebrate the good (and the bad) times in your life. Cherish your friends and family. Even though you may be going through a rough time, it will only get smoother up ahead. Just enjoy the life you have. If you don't like it, then don't live.
The trick to a happy life is to let the good things about it speak louder than the bad. It's hard to get me down because I stick to this principle every day.
My goal in life is to go to school and get my degree. I'm graduating in a year. I can't speed that up at all. So what's wrong if I take some time off to do something completely un-meaningful. Yes, I have a goal in life, but that doesn't mean I have to strive for it every second of my day.
@thelistman i totally agree that i dun have to spend every single time on striving for my goal.anyway,y be so fast in completing ur goal?you might be aimless when u have achieved the goal.
There is a quote which I like quite a bit- "I dread success. To have succeeded is to have finished one's business on earth, like the male spider, who is killed by the female the moment he has succeeded in his courtship. I like a state of continual becoming, with a goal in front and not behind." -George Bernard Shaw
Think about it. Once you reach your goal, are you done? I think so.
I think that you should live how you want to live. With this short time on Earth, 1/3 of it being lost with sleeping, I think that we just need to live life to its fullest and never look back.
Life without Dreams, or goals, is a life not worth living.
There's a poem I know of that perfectly fits in,
Hold fast to dreams For if dreams die Life is a broken-winged bird That cannot fly. Hold fast to dreams For when dreams go Life is a barren field Frozen with snow.
Maybe not visual Drace, but inside, in your heart. Goals, ultimately, make you actually work towards something. Something to accomplish. Without goals, you just get up everyday, go to work, come home, etc. It's a totally different lifestyle. I wouldn't be surprised if someone like that becomes somewhat depressed.
