Question: What is the meaning of life?
(Take note, when you are doing a free write, you just have to pick up a writing instrument and write for 5-10 minutes STRAIGHT without stopping. I have not edited this. It is just a flow of thought)
How is anyone supposed to really know, though? I mean, honestly. Unless you have interviewed every single person on the Earth (6 billion? More?), then how can you define it for everyone? You can't. For example, the meaning of life to a docotor might be to save as many people as he/she can while maintaining a positive influence, while the meaning of life to a crack dealer might be to deal as many drugs as he/she can and get really rich, whatever. But until you can actually get inside someone else's head, how the hell are you supposed to know? My hand hurts. I think the problem is that so many people only believe in their meaning of life and don't stop to cnosider others. They are so effing close minded that they always think they, and no one else is right. So what if someone's ultimate goals are different? They're pursuing their life, not yours. Maybe the reason we have so much conflict is because people can't accept that the connotation of being right can be different for different people. Can I stop yet?
