What keeps you going.....

No matter the answer just remember this...

At the start of the universe your energy existed,

Your energy exists now,

Your energy will still be there right until the end of time itself.


Energy cannot be created nor destroyed.. All energy in the universe is a constant.

Conviction.

I get results because I risk all to gain all. Every time. Losing everything can do that.

If you're afraid of "looking stupid" then you're holding back. There's a good reason a jester makes a good spy.

It's all a game. I'm toying with it all. Without being a demanding douchbag about it. Meanwhile other idiots get it wrong and fall into despair. Pretending to be in control when in reality they don't even consider their own flaws. Little by little it eats away at people. Like a cancer. Avoid. Ignore. Push away. Again and again. Turning people slowly hollow.

I wasn't going to let that be me. Fuck the "rules" and "social norms". Fuck the obligations and entitlement. I had to challenge it more. That's when I started turning my life around.

I don't try to obtain a "goal". If you do that then you'll want another. Instead I give direction. Wherever I follow the direction of another depends on wherever they can do their own thing enough. It's something to encourage by getting people to "fight back". Do your own thing. Most others will take things as a "personal attack". I'd rather smile when people show courage. Letting myself be a target does wonders. It's even saved lives.

Most people punish courage and reward cowardice. It's no wonder so many people get depressed. All this teaches people is to ignore concerns and avoid communication. It only teaches people to suffer in silence. The fact that people don't mean to do it makes it worse, not better.
 
My equine companions and the FEW humans that I can call 'friends' along with those I love as best I'm able. I've done the marriage and children thing only to find it disappointing and unfulfilling. It is/was an interesting life experience however. I do my best to be considerate and kind to those I interact with regardless if they have two or four legs. IMO the most important thing each day is to embraced those we love (again with either two or four legs) and do our best to let them know how much we love them. Really nothing much else matters in this insane, sad world...
 
Apologies if this gets a bit Nihilistic, but nobody has a purpose. We exist, and we die. Any sort of purpose or calling is something we enforce on ourselves, and in my experience, we fall short of those expectations or let them get the better of us all the time. That usually leads to a lot of depression and questioning what our purpose is again, because clearly it wasn't supposed to be what we just tried, right?

Even as young as 21, I've fallen off the horse enough times to accept that I don't have to have a purpose. There doesn't need to be a big reason to keep going. I keep going in life just to see where it takes me.

After all, I'm always gonna experience death anyways. No need to rush it. Might as well stop and smell the roses. Gather another stupid reason to laugh. Take a walk I've never been on before.

It seems that way at first doesn't it?

You actually are correct when you say "nothing". But the context is different for me.

"Nothing matters."

Nothing, in and of itself, matters. Get it?

As for mood, actions make mood. It doesn't come before action. It comes after action is taken. That comes back to habits.

Excellent words of wisdom!
 
What keeps me going ... Creating new experiences everyday, learning something new and loving those around me whom I respect. That's it ?

Fuck I needed to read that last line. Thank you.

It's very common for people to overlook that detail. Used to sit on my ass just "waiting" instead of "acting". It's why I used to be depressed in the past. And when I say depressed I mean serious trauma.

Even I had to learn the hard way. What's important is to learn from it.
 
In life? Do you see your life having a purpose?

What keeps you going each day?
working up my way in my career in construction, kinda want to get involved with bigger projects to help contribute back to my people, and maybe help with the homeless problem when im older and got more money. only thing keeping me down rn is finding good car insurance that wont charge me 700 a month. I hope you don't ask yourself this question often as i feel it really destroys yourself if you ask frequently. I also have so many jobs i wanna try, truck driving, electrician,pipe fitter, project management, HVACR, industrial refrigeration, maybe something in cybersecurity later down the road as i get older. Just too many things i want to try, I kinda want to learn everything.
 
What interesting replies indeed.

I believe we all have a purpose in life & that we need to achieve what, G-d has set us in goals. Do me a FAVOUR keep the comments respectful please! No need to bring negative thoughts to my post please.

While I understand that you would want to avoid negative comments, unfortunately there are a lot of people who are being held together by a shoelace, in a figurative sense.
 
being slightly better than I was the day before. A little bit smarter -30 minutes, 60 minutes 2 hours of listening to podcasts or speeches - stretching my mind and being more aware of what is really going on. knowledge is power.

and my family - that is what brought me a horribly dark place in my life and into the light. The self imposed requirement to be responsible rather than let others take care of everything or avoid problems all together. And this glowing sense of pride when I have done ok. It does not have be a good day or a great one. Just having an OK day is a win.

Sprinkle some positivity on the negative world.
