Do you ever get into that mood where you start to question the purpose of everything you do? Well, I am in that mood right now. I absolutely hate it.
But seriously, what's the point of doing anything? We will all die one day and nothing we have done, and none of the possessions we have accumulated will matter.
What is the point of doing this blog post? The most obvious answer is so I can make a good grade. But is there a deeper answer? Am I missing something? What is the point of going to college? So I can get a better job. What is the point of getting a job? So I can make money and give it to someone else for possessions I will probably never use and that will not matter when I die. I know I am being pessimistic here, but I just cannot comprehend the purpose of doing the things we do. Who says we have to do these things? What gives them the right to impose their ideas on us? I know God created us to worship and praise Him, so why do we have to waste our time with everything else?
These were just a few things that were on my mind and I thought I would share. I hope that it has some kind of affect on you. Even if it is just, "Wow, this girl is dumb." ha ha :)

I commented on "The Perfect Solution??"
ReplyDeleteWell, the only reason (based on if one is a Christian) we have to do anything related to public/work life is so we can get by in order to do God's will. I doubt that His for anyone would be so minute as to be a potato chip factory employee or something, but it could go from there and branch out into being able to spread His word in that environment.
ReplyDeleteWelcome to the 21st century, hun; the product of all things to do with the Enlightenment and the Industrial age. I'm not at all a fan either.
I mean, I do understand that everything we do is working toward what God has planned for us as individuals, but sometimes the things I do just seem so insignificant. I just have to take a step back and remind myself that everything happens for a reason and that God's will is perfect.
