I always find it humorous and, ironically, simultaneously tragic when others say to me that if life doesn't have any built-in purpose, no inherent value, then it has no purpose or value at all. I hate to see people get caught up in the idea life MUST have a built-in purpose and value and, if it doesn't, they are bitterly crushed. It doesn't seem to occur to them "no inherent purpose" and "no inherent value" means one is free to define it for oneself. Your purpose and value is limited only by your own imagination. Many human beings are absolutely terrified of the personal task of defining life for themselves and, I believe, are all too ready to grab onto the first person or philosophy or religion that will provide them with some cookie-cutter "method" or set of rules. "Please, please, tell me what to believe, what to value, what to do", they plead. To me, that's a horrible betrayal of personal uniqueness and potential. Your life is necessarily "Do-It-Yourself". It deserves its own maximum depth and breadth of experiences, understandings, its own beliefs, its own values, its own expression. No, you have no inherent purpose - you have no inherent value. Rather than a depressing thought, I find it incredibly liberating. I can live for whatever reason I wish, I can be as valuable as I wish and, most importantly, when those reasons and values no longer work for me, I am free to change them for something best for who and what I am and wish to be. I guess the lesson is, take control of your life. If you don't, there are plenty of others without your best interests at heart who are more than willing to take control for you. It will no longer be YOUR life, it will be theirs.

My purpose is to lead a life with connection and magical relationships, especially with myself.

Wasn't it Woody Allen who said "My purpose in life is to find out what my purpose in life is."

Anyway, this one post explains my current reading list.

As usual, you make a grand and glorious idea bite-sized, with spice.

Over and over again, so much about self-realization and growth comes down to this simple formula: truth = ease.
