If you feel like going through hell and back, and ending up higher up than where you started, you might like to look up "existential despair."

But honestly, theres alot of things to live for besides religion. I don't even think people live for religion very well, but thats just my own opinion. The thing is, it works for some people and not others...

I myself believe it comes down to your own happiness. And thanks to civilization, society, you also have a debt to other people and leaving this place better than you found it. (unless you like being self sufficient...). I find this in conflict with my own wants alot, I don't want to support society in it's current form because at least where I'm at... I feel like it needs to be tore down and rebuilt. But right now theres not much of a choice, alot of people say I'm in the prime of my life which oddly means I have to play by other's rules. I don't see things ending well.

You know why I keep on going? Because I have been wrong before, and I hope to be wrong again. Because I can better myself from it. It's a struggle to the heights, and I don't care if I end up at perfect or not. All I care is when time comes, I can look at whoever or noone, and say "I don't believe you could have done better yourself."
