What's The Point?
May 12, 2010
Why do we do things that are pointless?
Because we want to?
because they're fun?
Because we're told to?
What's the point?
If we do it because we want to,
why do we want to?
what would we gain from it?
What's the point?
If we do it because it's fun,
Why is it fun?
Who says what fun is?
What's the point?
If we do it because we are told to,
Why should we obey?
What's the worst that could happen?
what's the point?
Trying to find a point in things,
Is usually pointless
So, if everything is pointless,
Then what's the point in life?

I really like this poem..u were asking questions that I have never thought of, which made me think about the anwsers haha:)
Why do you ask so many questions?!!! acceptance is the key, conforming to others wants is what we want because it makes us feel happy and accepted. If we question what we do, we have nothing. We have no answers because the answers ARE what we do...not WHY we do it. It just is, no answer is constant that's why we can't answer and we are constantly changing what we do and how we do it...that's life. But I am glad you are questioning it and finding the conclusion...it's pointless! Enjoy it :)
