i'm not sure of my view on life, i don't even know how i would define life. In my life, i try to be truthful. which is really all i try to do. i love my girlfriend, i try to always be truthful to her, i try to be truthful to her parents, and mine. my peers and strangers are no different.(in the case of me being truthful) i guess i go by feelings? i don't know. although, i don't understand how you can define life at the moment. sure, Princeton defines life as "the course of existence of an individual," but i do not know how to regard this as anything other than total crap. i wish i could state what i think life is, but i can't. though, at the moment, all that comes to mind, is "truth" and "trying." my life, at the moment, is a series of tries, in which i hope for the truth.
and a side note, just because this made me think of it... having "goals," are bad... goals imply that you want to own whatever is is. For example, say my "goal" was to be an astronaut. I would then do whatever it takes, within "reason", to be an astronaut. yada yada, i finally become an astronaut. the question i would have to ask myself, if i had this goal, would be "now what?" and then i would have to find another goal. It's almost as if i am searching for something to buy. "i want this(goal) to happen!" then "i will make this happen." and then the excitement. "I made it happen!" and finally comes, "now what?" and it starts all over... i just can't function that way.
