Do you have a purpose in life?

Something that gives meaning to your life? Something in life you wake up everyday to fight for? Something in your life that lets you believe all the struggles...all the hardships...all the pain of moving forward is actually worth it?

If so, what is it that something that keeps you going?

this might sound weird, but I think about a tree. no matter the weather or what’s happening around it, a tree just is. trees stand stoic and peaceful, letting life happen. when the darkness is strong, thinking a tree helps me pause and regain focus beyond my pain. then I can focus on making things around me a little better than i found them (i'm an engineer lol)

@tenente Interesting. I'd not heard anyone express it that way before. If it works for you - stay the course.
