survival mode.....




Who cares!?  Why do I have to put a reason to it? Im here.
Once I tack a reason to it, Iím forever trying to live up to it. I prefer to think that there is no purpose to life. At least there is no ONE purpose to life. There are many reasons for life. Do I need any of those reasons to continue living? No. Iím already here, alive. It´s like being stranded on a deserted island. A person can question why the ship wrecked, or why they were on the ship in the first place, but it doesnít help in finding fresh water and food. Sometimes life is a matter of survival. Many people are in survival mode.

I see many people who are at work, not because they love the work, but because they need the job to get the money to live their lives the way they want. I do it sometimes too. I go in and out of survival mode. Sometimes work is just a paycheck. There is no purpose or meaning to it. Then I think of the great relationships and friendships I have with some of my coworkers. I love people really and think that this could be the reason I am here. I think of my other activities outside of work and think, ìThis is the reason I am working; For them..... all of the things I am doing may or may not be the reason I am alive. But life goes on doesn´t it?

Well every day at least I can wake up every morning thankful for another day. I can make choices about what I want to do based on what I see going on. I´m going to refrain from hanging a purpose around my neck and just live the best way I know how. I already know I am alive so now what? Well, let´s see... So many choices, so little time....
