When you are here, you wonder what is there.
When you get there, you miss here.
When you do not have it, you really want it.
When you got it, you don't know what to do with it.
Is it a human nature? Can it be concluded with mere two words?
Or is it because we the human never really look deep, and think and understand what is the underlying rational, purpose and reason for our certain want, need or lust?
If life that hard to understand? Or is it the human being that is hard to understand?
Life is simple, birth, grow, death.
How to live the life, is complicated.
Most of the time, our action, mission and purpose is not determined by ourselves.
We do not even think about it, somehow, we just follow the current.
People go to school, college, university, we follow suit.
People work and work and try to climb high, we follow suit.
But why do people do that? Survival? No.
People work hard to earn more money, that's mostly the standard answer to why do you work so hard?
But why or what is the money is for?
To make life easier, more comfort.
Why is that?
And this is the moment where the answer will not come as swiftly as before, people will think and think and think...and somehow they realize, just for a brief moment, they do not know what is their purpose of doing all this, and they can only come out with answers that do no remotely answer the question - So we have money to buy this and that, to get the kids to school yada yada yada.
And then, try asking "Why is that?" again.
They will get impatient and retort - Why is this stupid question for?
Hahahaha~
People then to avoid this answer, citing it to be philosophical and unpractical. But how can we live a life, when we don't even know what we are living for?
It is not something that complicated. Mine is simple.
"I just want to live a life where I can do what I want and in order to make sure I can do what I want, I work hard to earn more money to fund my amusement, my life."
That, for now is my purpose, to live Jacob's life as me, Jacob wants it to be...that of course within the boundary of what I can afford, financially, legally, morally.
How hard is it to know your own purpose? Not really that hard!
