Why are we here?

Do you ever wonder why we are here? Is there a reason? Is it to love? Is it just to exist? Thousands of years ago there were people just like me and now they are gone. I wasn't there with them because i didn't exist. Now im here. I often wonder what for? At this moment i feel great, but there are times that i don't. Now that im 60 i have many questions. I dont believe in eternal punishment because that doesn't make sense of a loving God. I wasn't here from time eternal until now and its something i ponder. If we are here to work, exist and die i often wonder the meaning. Some people suffer immeasurably in this existence and some have more wealth than is necessary. So why the disparity? I'm neither. I'm just grateful at this moment as i finish writing my thoughts over a cup of coffee. I hope by the end of the day i make some kind of difference whether big or small and find meaning in everything i do. Humbly yours, Bruce!

Meaning is an illusion. You don't need meaning when you're happy, it's what you chase when you're sad. Truth is that we do not know what we need, meaning is what we call the void we try to fill, and God is the only one that can fill it.
