Purpose of life

[kılıç_mehmet]

There is no given purpose, but that doesn't mean why can't enjoy it.

To which extend can you enjoy things, until you get bored?
Or until you have no further economic means to reach new things?

That depends on the person.

I've never been particularly wealthy and was brought up in a poor (economically poor) environment. Life being so rare, near impossible, living for the sake of living should be a fair motivation. As much as life is pointless, early death is unnecessary.

If we could genetically modify ourselves, I think I'd be content to live for a few hundred more years without getting "bored." Seeing the planet, or planets if we ever make it off this rock, learning new things, witnessing new technologies and human achievements... It makes it all worthwhile in a way.

Well, I don't think I need to taste more than I did of the worlds pleasures, as I think that living for the sake of seeking pleasure does not really make life worthwile, for me at least. For that reason, I've sought out to reshape my life to fit a purpose, and to work towards purpose. I find happiness in whatever steps I can take in the realization of that purpose.
So here I am, at a crossroads.
I seek to make my life as long as possible as far as I can serve that purpose, but if I were required to lay it down, I'd do so happily.
