On a cosmic timescale, facilitate a world with minimal suffering and maximal fulfillment.
Help each other.

I don’t have one. I just do what I can to be a good person and that’s it. And I’m ok with it.
Nothing. Purpose implies the potential for failure and while there are certainly circumstances that I would consider personal failures, there are none so great that they would invalidate my existence.
That said, I have a vision for my life and the state of the world that I would like to see realized. I want to see a world where climate change is taken seriously and recognized as the imminent threat that it is. It will be waiting on the other side of every economic crisis or war that man chooses to wage.
To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate the beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch Or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded!
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
To be exploited in every way possible.
I used to be flourishing as an artist. Now I’m just trying to not end up in a camp within the next 4+ years
ideally producing scientific research and art but in practice I’m just trying to minimize my own suffering :/
Pretty sure that’s what everyone is doing. It helps to help others, where we can, in my experience. Focus on love, beauty, goodness. We can hyperfocus on the ugliness and easily fall into the abyss of despair, rather than the abyss of freedom (within personal constraints, obvs).
To be happy and enjoy things, and to make others happy in return! ❤️😌
To spread my genes around, mostly
Stop licking every railing in the Eaton Centre, please.
Spite a bunch of fuckheads and make some cool software whilst not forgetting to have fun along the way.
To spend time with the people I love.
I don’t know.
It’s to overcome challenges and become a better person. To not live like an animal, to have morals, strength of character, treat others well, help other people.
Basically the opposite of what the TV and social media is telling us.
Is it?
The purpose of life is to live.
My purpose in life is varied and technical and super-great.
