    Is life about finding yourself or creating yourself?

    The guy who sculpted the Thinking Man had it right. He created himself trying to find himself.

    Deep stuff... or it isn't whatever.

    True in order to find ourselves we must first create ourselves, but also wrong because how would we know what to create if we did not already know ourselves from having found ourselves?

    I don't know dizz

    All I can say is that Waldo of Where's Waldo fame would probably answer with finding yourself.

    Thats very true.
    I mean how do you even find yourself if you dont know where to begin there for you must already know yourself a little bit

    Biggest trip is just don't get real heavy in any of this shit. Be good to yourself and other folks. Avoid assholes, feed kids, laugh every chance ya get and if ya find a philosopher slap the shit out of them before they ruin their whole life trying to figure out something that don't need figured out. helpful things to remember: some drugs are lotsa fun, swimming nekkid feels good and so does sex. Ice cream is great stuff. Dogs and cats make real good friends for cheap. That should get you through most of it. If it seems more complicated add fibre to your diet...ya probably need a bowel cleansing. Good Luck

    IMO everyone is destined to learn what life means- upon completing it. Until then we're supposed to be too busy living it to be bothered worrying about the meaning of it.

    Haha i like this.
    I mean my biggest issue at the moment is trying to find myself ,and figure out where im going what i want out of life.
    And what i have to offer life.
    But i mean maybe your right i should just enjoy life for what it is be the best person i can be.
    Maybe after all of that and after i stop searching for who i am ill just stummble into.
    Haha butt i mean who know.

    Or maybe finding your self consist of knowing who your not...
    Hmmm
    Which means in a way you know who you are because you know who you not.
    Damn, im taking myself in circles

    The moment I realised that life is short and meaningless and I was a tiny speck in a vast universe was the most liberating of my life. It really happened in a moment, too. I've been free to create something great ever since.

    life is all about finding someone old who you don't love, marrying that person, killing that person, and then spending their inheritance on YOU, your drug of choice, and all the things that YOU love and make YOU glamorous.

    i think you're just being trite and tedious but I'll indulge you. You're living in one or can't you walk down the street where you live?
