To quote Carl Sagan, “We are a way for the cosmos to know itself.”
To “live”, and by “live” I mean experience and creat Art. I don’t need more nor less.
If I made it with honesty and care, it may not change the world, but it surely changes the people who will do it.
Any hope that your art will change the world?
curiosity
Spite a bunch of fuckheads and make some cool software whilst not forgetting to have fun along the way.
To spend time with the people I love.
To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate the beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch Or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded!
- Ralph Waldo Emerson

Honestly, your comment sounds a lot like the “original sin” shit that the Christian church tries to push.
Well I’m probably wording it wrong or you’re reading it differently.
But, what I mean is every individual has their own journey towards their maturity when they realise helping others is the way to go.
To enjoy myself. What exactly that means, changes over time.
Pretending that working my ass off to make a ton of money (not for the sake of it, but because I don’t want to work my entire life) will eventually pay off.
The purpose of life is to live.
My purpose in life is varied and technical and super-great.
I don’t have one. I just do what I can to be a good person and that’s it. And I’m ok with it.
To spread my genes around, mostly
Stop licking every railing in the Eaton Centre, please.
To get as close to my true self as possible.
Why do you think there’s a true self if you’re not close to it?
