Rather than get depressed that essentially life has no meaning, he thinks that is the meaning.

It is beautiful when you understand it. That is one reason I have been trying to get some to read that essay of his, the Myth of Sisyphus.

In Greek Mythology he was a man who out-witted a couple of gods, different ones depending on the era, and as result, was forced to push a huge boulder up a giant hill all day, then when he reached the top with no where to go, it would roll back down and he had to start over, endlessly.

Greek myth is strange there is also one that eats his children so they cant take his throne

The essay is not about greek myth, I was simply explaining the title, lol. This is basically what human life is to us, and he gets really deep with existence and the irony etc. If anything of this sort or existentialism interests you it is a must read and it is only 100 pages or so.

edited. for your further understanding.

Thanks will check him out hes not new to me i just forgot what he was about
[/quote]

Gotya. Well that essay is nothing like his books and novels, nor like any other of his essays. Def check it out!
[/quote]

But some of his books are great too, The Fall and The Stranger are two of my favs off hand, but nothing as awesome as that essay I was talking about.

Original Message So, to start out, just incase anyone wants to play, what do you intend to get out of life, or why do you think we, or you personally, are here?

Or, what are your ideas of life and this and other dimensions, universes, etc?
