to acquire what you want
to acquire what you want
to poop multiple poops per day
To find meaning in something greater than ourselves
To know God and enjoy Him forever
To know myself and enjoy myself
To know and enjoy another
To really live now and continue to live after death
you are the closest thus far. so so close. become more specific
to acquire what you need
What do you want from life
To kidnap an heiress
or threaten her with a knife
What do you want from life
To get cable TV
and watch it every night
There you sit
a lump in your chair
Where do you sleep
and what do you wear
when you're sleeping
What do you want from life
An Indian guru
to show you the inner light
What do you want from life
a meaningless love affair
with a girl that you met tonight
How can you tell when you're doin' alright
Does your bank account swell
While you're dreaming at night
How do know when you're really in love
Do violins play when you're touching the one
That you're loving
What do you want from life
Someone to love
and somebody that you can trust
What do you want from life
To try and be happy
while you do the nasty things you must
Well, you can't have that, but if you're an American citizen you are entitled to:
a heated kidney shaped pool,
a microwave oven--don't watch the food cook,
a Dyna-Gym--I'll personally demonstrate it in the privacy of your own home,
a king-size Titanic unsinkable Molly Brown waterbed with polybendum,
a foolproof plan and an airtight alibi,
real simulated Indian jewelry,
a Gucci shoetree,
a year's supply of antibiotics,
a personally autographed picture of Randy Mantooth
and Bob Dylan's new unlisted phone number,
a beautifully restored 3rd Reich swizzle stick,
Rosemary's baby,
a dream date in kneepads with Paul Williams,
a new Matador, a new mastodon,
a Maverick, a Mustang, a Montego,
a Merc Montclair, a Mark IV, a meteor,
a Mercedes, an MG, or a Malibu,
a Mort Moriarty, a Maserati, a Mac truck,
a Mazda, a new Monza, or a moped,
a Winnebago--Hell, a herd of Winnebago's we're giving 'em away,
or how about a McCulloch chainsaw,
a Las Vegas wedding,
a Mexican divorce,
a solid gold Kama Sutra coffee pot,
or a baby's arm holding an apple,
and a copy of Once a Runner.
oh so it is kind of like how Achilles died in battle so that he could live forever... that's what the meaning of life is
to acquire knowledge.
The meaning of life is to make your dreams come true without regret.
there is no meaning to life. it was a trick question.
I dont understand. life is what you make it about. nothing more. An exestentialism writer like Albert Camus or someone like Soren Kierrkengaard are going to have different views on life than someone who is convinced in the absolute existence in God. To ask what is the meanig of life is a dumb question. BEcuase there is no answer. It is an opinion.
I personally like Steven Hawking's suggestion that we may well be people chasing the truth to a theory, only finding what the theory itself wants us to discover. And whatever the controlling factor of the theory is (God or some other sorce) we get to decide.
The meaning of life is useless if you're not smart enough to figure out that ...
1) You can get a free copy via any number of pdf links that have been posted on these boards over the years.
2) Parker's book is again going to print, rendering all the high-priced ebay copies worthless.

Life is not posing you a question
Life is saying, "Live"!
-Gregory Penn
Heard it on a show Aspire!
while flipping channels on a sunday morning.
To run hard and love others, simple as that
Life is trying to figure out if there really is a God, and he really is all-powerful, and if so, why he lets multitudes of dorks wax on and on about how great some book is when it is obvious to anybody who has ever read any other book that said book is an absolute pile of shit, when he could use his powers to make a giant food processor appear, into which he would stuff all the dorks, blend them, stuff them into cans, and sell them as cat food.
