Have you ever noticed?

That the older you get the more you realize that life is really just pointless. Lately I have been thinking about who Athene really is, and trying to find her. I get lost in the thoughts of why do we live life? What purpose does it really serve? Is it all really just to grow up, get an education, work, have a family, and then die? What is the point of it all?

I figure that the only person I can be is me, although I am not really sure who me really is. They say life is short, and to live it happily...but I am not finding life to be short at all. Sure, there are a lot of things I want to do and see and learn...but what is the point of doing all of that? Just to say I did it?

I used to think I wanted to live forever, how much I could see and learn if I did...but what is the point of seeing all and learning all? There is no other greater purpose. Define happiness. What is happy for me may not be happy for those around me, but where does happy really get you? If you are religious then you die to go be happy for eternity, but what is the point of it? Is it pride? or greed? After you have accomplished everything you wanted to what's left?

More reasons why I have found life is pointless.
