We are not born to anything

Your purpose is whatever you decide it is. If you truly believe your purpose is pointless, so it is.

Or what some other authority decides it is, realistically speaking.

Apparently I was born to pay for basic needs

Some people born to inheritance of a bazzilion dollar.

Nihilist: we're born to die

Optimist: we're born to live

Nature: you're born to fuck.

🙂‍↔️✋ born to die

🙂‍↔️✋ born to live

😎👉 born to increase GDP

I also have it on good authority that we were born to run.

We are born to primarily suffer and have a few happy moments, while being a small cog in a gigantic earth-destruction machine.

Don't forget having intercourse!

Of all the wonders that I yet have heard. It seems to me most strange that men should fear; Seeing that death, a necessary end, Will come when it will come.

You will die. Eventually. So do what you can do before it comes. Just... don't regret what's left unsaid.

... if you're frightened of dying and... and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away. But if you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the earth.
