Why Do You or Did You Believe?

[Jenny A]

Jenny, and Rythm, - the official line is evolution/ no reason behind life.

Without an overpowering reason to continue in life when the pleasure/ good does not come even close to the unpleasant/bad experiences, why would one go on?

If you have been in a place where life is that unpleasant, I'm very sorry. I've had times when life was bad, but not when I expected it to stay bad forever. I want to go on because life is either good or going to be good.

I am a very practical guy, when you stand back and look at life objectively and dispassionately, leaving here looks quite reasonable.
After all- all of us do leave one day don't we?
It is just a matter of timing.

Well yes we do all leave life one day. But, I find that reason for making the best of the days that I have. I do all sorts of good or pleasurable things that end or are likely to end. I wouldn't quit them in the middle just because they will end.

Beyond that, I am important to a number of people, and I wouldn't walk out on them intentionally.
