KatanaViolet Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 A sence of self and a sence of accomplishment. I've been a screw up all my life. I think it's due time that I find something that gives my life meaning. A goal that I can strive for and accomplish. That's one of my reasons for going to Japan. I never been much of a school person, and I was really wondering what I was doing in university until I took Japanese. I have a wonderful sensei, and I am just absorbing the language. I finally found something I'm good at. And now that I've set this goal for myself I want to accomplish it, so then I can prove to myself that my life does have meaning. It might sound lame, but it means more to me than you know. The hard part is, chosing between Japan and my boyfriend. Because there's no way that something like that would work for either of us. It's bittersweet... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starwind Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 I'd have to search for self respect and self confidence. To those who know me here, this may sound a little off, but I'm not a confident person. I really am my own harshest critic and I believe that nothing I ever do is good enough. My GF tells me that I'm an idiot for doing the things I do and acting the way I do about it sometimes. The thing that has always frightend me most is myself. I even hate myself at times. Sometimes even simply for being alive, for burdening some one else with my problems, that's why I keep them to myself so often. I don't believe anyone really wants to help, I just think it's them being nice or considerate, but doesn't really want to hear, so I simply say there is nothing wrong so I don't cause them to worry. I want to find a way so that could be true, but I can't seem to find it in myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm very easy to please and have no motivation whatsoever. I got a tv, a computer, good friends, good food, good life. I don't ask nor want any more. I don't want to go on some hunt for 'truth' or 'the answer' or 'Bush's Brain' or some other nonsense, I just want to live my life in content mediocre obscurity.

jigglyness Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 I would search for a place without stupid drama. like with the stupidest things that can cost a life or hurt someone, whether yourself or someone you love. I admit, we humans are stupid at time, but I would really pretty much give up alot for a place like that...I guess it's really special for me because I find myself hating people in general for all the stupid things we do and all the unnecessary drama we cause.

And for a stupid teen, I really did appreciated life like that. I like how you used the words, "content mediocre obscurity." =] Then horrible **** started happening in my family, and that really makes me lean towards what [B]Jigglyness[/B] said. **** happens. And damn, people always having a cow, starting drama, making not only their lives miserable, but others, too. I don't think you're asking for much, Jig, sounds reasonable to me. And if your life, or your [B]perspective[/B], stays as good as it is, Ziggy, I'll be happy for you. It's a good attitude to have. Instead of searching for world peace or whatever, I guess I'd search for good health to benefit my family, friends, me. It's possible to have. (I reluctantly add that a little drama in life keeps it somewhat interesting, and can make you smarter.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Retribution Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 [size=1]I wouldn't search. I'd just live.

eleanor Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 [color=darkslateblue] Not really something you can search for, but a fulfilling life. I hope that now during my youth I'll appreciate hanging out with my friends while doing spontaneous things with them and having relatively little worry, and I hope that later on I'll know what accomplishment feels like. Stuff everyone would live for, ya know? Other than that I think I go pretty far to obtain money. Once I chugged down water filled with salt for twenty bucks. I almost died, but I was twenty bucks richer.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fasteriskhead Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 [quote name='Boo][size=1']Where is the point?[/size][/quote]That right there's the one question that we're probably never going to get beyond (or, if we do, it's likely not going to happen in my lifetime). Gun Preacher got to this before me. A resolution to that question of the "point" (or, at least, something that exposes the question as a silly one), now taken in the broadest sense, would be the thing I'd seek from the thread topic. [i]Why this? Why any of this? Why is this silly, terrible, beautiful world here at all? Why is there anything that exists rather than, instead, a totally unrealized nothing?[/i] I don't think this is a question that can be answered, at least in the usual sense of a "why" followed by its cause. This question has be thought about over and over again and worked through at its own pace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why strive to lift a mountain when instead you can strive to become stronger. I'm basically saying 1) don't bite off more than you can chew, and 2) in your quest for your dreams, don't neglect the imperatives (paying the rent, getting a job, etc).[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I myself, am not quite impressed by that goal. Why would you want to live... just to live? Where is the point?[/size][/quote] Goals? or destination? There's a difference here. As for myself, I set goals for something to shoot for, not always reaching it. Much like the teachings of Bruce Lee. The point to living just to live pointless? Yes and no. We, as humans, all need spice in our life. Something to zest everything. But we can always choose to live in necessity. Authors such as Annie Dillard, discuss this topic a lot. We live in choice. Never. Never. Simply living life as it is. Anyway, the one thing that I would search for would be the search for passion. Not the passion as you would find doing certain activites, but the passion for living. I would go to extremes in searching for this, for this is one of the infinite reasons to why we are alive. Why we live for the things we do. "[I]O me! O life! of the questions of these recurring, Of the endless trains of the faithless, of cities fill'd with the foolish, Of myself forever reproaching myself, (for who more foolish than I, and who more faithless?) Of eyes that vainly crave the light, of objects mean, of the struggle ever renew'd, Of the poor results of all, of the plodding and sordid crowds I see around me, Of the empty and useless years of the rest, with the rest intertwined, The question, O me! so sad, recurring - What good amid these, O me, O life?

Baron Samedi Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 [size=1]What is worth searching for? How long do I have? What will it take of me to find it? I don't think there are too many things truly worth searching for, not in hte manner you describe. And it's not like many of these things can be 'found' or acted upon anyway, so it's kind of pointless. But something that I [b]do[/b] think is important, or would like to 'search' for is a feasible solution to all humanities foibles. Why are we how we are, and how can we make ourselves better?[/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dark king Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 well i am already searching and i have already found a lot of it but there is still plenty out there to learn. i`m talking about truth, i search for it every day and my sacrifice? well i`m not sure if i`m actually sacrificing anything, only being able to accept that what you find is something you have to keep in mind. i`m not going to enlist every truth i found so far or anything but i think it is a noble thing to do and by accepting it after trialing it to be the truth is being open minded and it has a sense of honor to it, just plain simple truth or the most complex truth i want to find them all and accept them and fusing them with my own self and gaining. you only gain from the truth same as i would never lie because we invented that just to reject truth. it`s worth it and that`s a truth.

The13thMan Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 [FONT=Century Gothic] [COLOR=DarkOrange]I will search for true love. I believe people need love to live. There's only one letter difference after all. ^L^ I'd sacrafice a lot, but not all. It's insanity to sacrafice it all. For example, i wouldn't sacrafice a person's life for it. I would be tempted, but in the end i would know that i only have a love because of the death of another person, love can't be based on something so grim. Though i would sacrafice my xbox and guitar. ^J^ And maybe my computer, maybe. XP Later. [/COLOR] [/FONT] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
