Your Reason to Live

Great thing about being sentient is that we can CHOOSE our reason, and Contemplate existence in the first place. No other species (as we know thus far) has the capacity to think about such things. No other animal has this skill we now know as **Metacognition**

And in no other time in history has there been such wide abundance in resources and infrastructure that so many people even have the luxury to think of such a thing.

Thus, a good reason to live is WHATEVER makes you feel good and get up in the morning, excited (or at least ready) to take on the day.

MY reason to live is -World Domination- I mean, ehm.. to Change the World for the better. And to make an immortal legacy.
It doesnt matter how hard, crazy, or wild this reason is... I cant imagine any other reason that will make me so ready and excited and persistent enough to get up every single day ... no other reason makes lifes adversities worth it to me.

Some dont need a reason, and thats fine.
Some find reason through service, creation, having fun, etc... thats fine too.

Your reason may change... and that's also fine.

Think about not just what makes you happy, but also what makes you feel fulfilled... That is your good reason to live.
