What is the meaning of life?
The meaning of life is to live. There is no other meaning. How does one live, though? I feel like I am Chi, a persocom. Something that's supposed to be unfeeling and unlovable. So... What do I say to that? Screw society and all the traditional barriers and find the true meaning of life. And not solve it by getting a quick fix, like what the rest of society does. No antidepressants, no drugs, nothing. All of those quick fixes suck because they do not help you in any way, shape, or form except put off the problems for a day or two before they come back tenfold.
The other night some girl came in my store, and she was playing the battered wife syndrome, how she has 4 kids (which was with her), and how he kicked them out and all.. I told her of a place, a women's shelter, which she and her kids would be safe. Of course, she didn't want help, all she wanted was for someone to feel sorry for her. I didn't feel the least bit sorry for her, although I was in her shoes at one time, minus the kids. Thank God I have none yet. My heart broke for those kids though. She wanted money for food for the kids. Instead I bought milk and food for them. She of course got mad. Must be because she wanted money for more crack or something, I dunno.. But still, my single act reminded me that I still have a heart somewhere even though I have a lot of contempt for stupid people. And she spit on it because she wanted cash, not food. Too bad woman, when you ask for money for food for kids, I will get food to you, but not money. Because somehow I knew that she was an addict, not a battered wife. Not a single mark on her body or anything else. That's suspicious, and the way she acted about the milk confirmed my suspicions about her. Sorry lady, you're a loser and what you're putting your kids through will follow them for their lives.
So what does this have to do with the meaning of life? How putting aside problems and using excuses will actually hurt you like this lady is hurt. She's got a problem, and she needs to accept she has a problem, and she needs to approach it and get past it. Once she's found a way past the problem and overcomes it, only then will she truly live on.
