"Do u ever ask yourself what you're here to do - is it just to have friends, hang out, do fun stuff, enjoy life, find a mate, have kids, raise them, had more fun, and then die?"

Some responses:

Grace: no i dont' think that hard
embarrassed to say
but yes
i dont' think that hard
i feel like i do good work
and that i'm a good friend and daughter
so i'm happy with that

me: hmm
you are either a genius
or a fool :D

Grace: hahah either/or i'm happy
foool

i have asked my self that all the time actually
i feel a need to know my purpose
besides as a container of alcohol and semen

Terry
for now, i just try not to be a drag on the adavncement of society
create some sorts of value at least
and i try not to cause others grief

i wanna do more
give others happiness
be a good father

Neal: christ
i ask myself that every day

Neal: i dunno man. i think there's more to life than that
but most people don't seem to..so it's like i feel separated from most people beacuse of it
probably more so because i'm in a career path right now where everyone else is like kids, white picket fence, yada yada yada

Neal: depends on what you want..would you be happy 10 years frmo now raising kids with a good career?
it feels like people get more complacent when they're in their mid twenteis
twenties
feel like time is running out to do something big

Neal: but at the same time..the career path isn't bad
time with your friends
time to vacation
money to do at least some of the things you want to do
if i were to quit and do my own startup, i couldn't justify training for a marathon or going on a trip somewhere at least for a few years
tough decision to make i think

ok
essentially yes
"just" is a bit negative tho
i'd be happy if i could do all those things
