What do you want in life?

[Rayder]

How bitter Rayder...how very bitter

you're entitled to your opinion of course.

I need a girl I can love for a longg time, I always spend all my energy making a lady like me then once they do I become bored with them. I feel bad because they think I used them and that isn't really the case. It sucks big time. I'm still pretty young though so I shouldn't be worrying about that I guess...

Respect last spartan, love is good stuff that's for sure. Happiness also good. Those two I want the most.

I would like to see zero terrorism in the world if that is possible. It's my ultimate goal.

That is some cheesy bullshit... Unacceptable terrorism is merely a response to the "accepted" terrorism of intervetionist government(s). I'd laugh if only it weren't so sad that people can be this simple-minded...

You'd be bitter too if you had your eye blown out by a car battery when all you were doing was checking the fricken' oil. When your fiancé gets killed in a car accident just weeks before the wedding. When your profession bites you in the ass with allergies that prevent you from continuing that profession.

When that happens to you, then you can talk to me about being bitter.

All I want from life is a hot cup of coffee. That seems like a pretty achievable goal for the morning.

Answer those 4 questions with Love

. I know its weird but I really want a family when I grow up. For a job I want to be an Electronic Engineering Technician . If I get those 2 things I would be a very happy man

Don't count on it. It's been my experience that achievements, relationships, family, possessions, etc aren't going to make you happy. There's always something else to "get".

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying those aren't great goals to have, but happiness has to come from being appreciative of what you have and who you are.

[mthrnite]

What is your goal?

Successfully raising my children. Giving them the groundwork to achieve more than I have, and to not hate me too much when they become teenagers.

why are you living?

Mom and dad did the do.

what is your ultimate goal and your are currently live to achieve it?

Intermingling with the cosmos, which I'm currently locally succeeding at.

why you are here?

To quote some Vonnegut. Here we go:

Tiger got to hunt,
Bird got to fly;
Man got to sit and wonder, 'Why, why, why?'
Tiger got to sleep,
Bird got to land,
Man got to tell himself he understand.

My goal in life is to one day rise ranks in the military and bring peace to middle east, unlike the pure economical reason that U.S. is after Iraq right now. My goal is to be a peace keeper.

I think you got it exactly backwards Szyslak. I've noticed that people only seem happy when they are currently working towards a goal, not when they achieve a goal and not when they just sit around appreciating what they already have (the glow of both things fade over time). That's why "there's always something to get", because life needs direction and change to flourish.

This may not be true for everyone, but from what I've observed it sure seems to be. Happiness shouldn't be seen as a finish line you reach, but a process you try to maintain. Of course you need balance and to spend a good amount of your life in the present, appreciating who and what you have in your life. I'm just saying that goals give hope for a better future, give a direction to your life, encourage growth, and prevent ennui.

I hope you can find happiness in your life. It's not easy for everybody and took me a long time to figure out myself.



What is your goal?
I have three goals. To build a happy life with my fiance, live a decent life, and make awesome cartoons and comics.

why are you living?
I have people who care about me and a lot more stuff to make.

what is your ultimate goal and your are currently live to achieve it?
Making a cartoon or comic that will make a devoted cult following extremely happy and excited to be alive. I'm making as much stuff as I can to achieve this and learning from as many of my artistic heroes as I can.

why you are here?
Millions of years of evolution and failed contraception.

God bless you.

Ahhh that explains it

 

[Psyfira]

I don't have any goals, never have. Well, not beyond getting a better job so I can afford my own place again. I guess I'm just too adaptable, I easily get used to things around me that I can't change, happiness in mediocrity and all that. I have no idea what I'm doing, kinda sad really.

I've never understood people who spend their whole lives chasing after money and high-stress jobs, it's just not worth it. It tears themselves and the people around them apart.

WTH? I'm the same. :0

Oh I'm not saying it's a bad thing, I'm just bitter because it's got me stuck in the lousy job that I've gotten used to

(that and my hatred of the job applications process)

 

[IainDS]

I would like to move to London to become a Graphic Designer and to get into the advertising industry.

Roll on life!

 

[moozxy]

ATM it is to write a good personal statement to get an offer from a good uni, then it'll be to do well in my exams so I can get into the good uni, then I'll have to do well in uni to get the good job, then in the job I'll have to work hard to get more...

Is this cycle ever going to end?

 

[Orc]

I don't really have a fixed goal either, that's why I didn't really answer the questions. I guess I just like living my life and the experience of the journey...

Life is a long path to a goal. Drop your heavy luggage and enjoy walking with your hands empty.

I live because i want to prove that i can go it alone by myself.

but i do hate my life, i have a cycle just like TaMs.

Wake up, School, Come home, Homework, Dinner, Bed.

I do wish my life would change.

lol, I'm home schooled! So I get up ever morning, do whatever the hell I want as long as I get my school done for the day. Public school sounds boring.

 

[Smuff]

What i want from life is to be remembered fondly

 

[onispawn]

I already have what I want.. so I guess just to keep things the same.
