It is, and it is tangible. Most of us will have to make do with considerably less obvious purpose.
I think when it comes to purpose what matters is not how spectacular it may seem to others but rather how relevant it feels to you. If it gets you up in the morning and keeps your interest, I think we should be content.

Okay world, I've had my creativity fix for today. I demand no further amusement. (But go ahead and work on tomorrow.)
