[quote=Anonymous]Remember Mellancamp’s first big hit? Hold onto sixteen as long as you can....life goes on, long after the thrill of living is gone. Back in the day when people learned the Baltimore Cathecism (or similar), kids were taught the purpose of life is to serve God. Other religions and cultures had similar views—that the purpose of life was to serve others, or be useful. Now, we frame everything in terms of “But are you happy?” I think if that is your life goal, it is a really hard life. Yes, moments of happiness are important. But chasing happiness as a state of being is perhaps not realistic. [/quote]
