Yet we all die

Impermanent, yet that creates the beauty of life

Universal ends are purposes, the beauty of it is just a byproduct of the experience that is life

Well then I feel that the only purpose you can hold is one you give to the experience yourself, finding the love of life and taking the happiness that we are given

Sounds like hedonism, the pleasure rings hollow after enough exposure

What if everything matters, and life is not about just enjoyment?

Maybe, but that’s why you have to take the pleasure with the pain, life is never all ups, nor ever all downs. You must find the rhythm of your life

But to what end? The end is always death. Maybe to make something beautiful before it takes us away, not enjoyment or pain, but beauty as an encompassing temporary form of it all. A rhythmic song before the final beat

All things end, but life isn’t about the beginning or the end, it’s about the journey, focusing on the end is foolish, as that’s to believe that all things exist to end, but all things exist simply to exist

What if death is another journey?

What if the world does not like what I like to do? How do I make what I like matter most?

It may be, but we can only focus on there here and now, focusing on hypotheticals takes the mind away from the present, and if you focus on death so much before you die you will never truly live

Doesn’t death and its unknown give more gravity to this life though? To heighten that very sense of life?

The gravity of impermanence is part of what makes it worth living, but to focus only on the end makes it focused only on the end
