Why for who? I don't have a why, except that I like being alive. God doesn't exist so he has no why. My parents wanted a third child...that's why they did it.

I have many purposes and they change over time. I had purpose from day 1 - I wanted boobies and food! (o Y o)

I like the Pursuit of Happiness.

I don't particularly care if I ever catch up with it, because that would require a lot of effort starting a new pursuit.

I love my family and they love me.

I have a fine old dog who adores me. She begs a lot, but other than that, is a fine beasty.

I survived two cancer operations when I was 12. I have psoriasis. These two kind of balance out the Karma thingy.

I do not like to travel, but had to travel quite a lot before I was smart enought to realize it is mostly a waste of time.

I like to fly the old Piper, but only when the weather is good.

Neither my wife nor I can cook worth crap, but we both still try. I can make really, really good bread. She can make really, really good.... (i'll think of something... give me time)

My wife and I tease each other and laugh and act like children every day.

Life is fun. Life is good. I have two wonderful kids who are off on their own pursuit of happiness. Two wonderful grandkids who are too young yet to realize that there is more to the world than themselves.

There is no big "meaning" to life. I just get up each day and try to have as much fun as I can. I would be nothing without my love and life mate. She is my reason for living and loving. I am her foot warmer. (grin)

Heh, we have similar purposes. That's unexpected.

Reproduction.

When I was 14.

That's the Purpose. As for the Method, I agree with SVW.

There is no meaning to your or mine or our lives.
We're just vessels for DNA. And DNA only wants to live.

"Wanting" is something that is created by nervous tissue according to all available evidence. DNA isn't made of the right stuff and it doesn't have the characteristic electrical patterns by itself.

That's true. DNA is necessary but not sufficient for wanting to exist, as far as anyone knows.
