OK so... There are some questions my World Literature professor posted after our discussion on Egyptian literature:
1. Are all human achievements futile after death?
2. Who discovers one's purpose to live?
Well, here's a short thing of what I have to say about such:
1. Humans achieved so much so well in their journeys through life. But then again, after death, it all does become futile. Why so? Simply because a new life means a new beginning. Some people, if not all, believe that there is eternal life after one's earthly death. And because of such it is the reason that all things must be back to Square 1 and begin everything from the start. Only difference is, this start has no end, and it will continuously go on.
2. As for the discovery of one's purpose in life, it is simply self-discovery. We go through this journey called life to find our purpose of existence. "Who are we?" "Why do we live?" "Exist?" It is for us to find out. No one can find out all these but ourselves. As we continue to walk our own "yellow brick roads" to the fulfillment of these things, we will be in a never-ending cycle on search for our purpose in living in this place we call Earth.
'Til the next blog, peeps! :))
