My purpose is to pillage the village, drink wine with mirth and sew my seed in as many fertile valleys as the maidens will permit me to enter. Also I wear a cool hat with bull horns on it. What's yours?

My purpose, living, trying to have fun and be happy. Do what I want to do, say what I want to say, ect.

Those aren't purposes - those are desires...

If you lived in a communist country you wouldn't be allowed those desires to their full extent...

Ahhhh one of the 'great mysteries of life' questions. Right up there with 'is there a God'?

Give as much as you can, take a little as you can and understand who you really are.

You still haven't said whether you're referring to our lives in general, or to our participation on this board in particular.

To find the Holy Grail.

Knowing -Cp, I would bet he means life in general, but if this board is your life, well....

I guess my purpose is to bring out the worst in people, since I seen to be so unknowingly good at it. :)

If you have to ask then you just don't "get it".... (sigh)...

My purpose? To make the world a little bit better than the way I found it, even if it's only my own little corner of the world.

OK, that's your purpose on this board.

Don't you wanna win the Ohio State tavern pool championship?

I don't do bars, and I don't do Ohio. So, no.

"Is there a purpose?"

Another good 'mysteries of life' question.

We are spigots of creativity, like God, but with limited means.

We aspire to create the impossible. Like God.

But instead we venture forward, lost.

Our paths return us to where we have always been.

Purpose is an illusion. As are all of our ideas about ourselves.

Our only purpose... ... is to be ....ourselves

Well, I had a purpose but I just abandoned it. Now I want to find Hagbard and bear his children.
