The cool earth below my feet feeling tough Stepping on sharp rocks just because of my luck Wondering my own self worth Feeling more useless than dirt Lost in a world of hate...

I cannot believe that the purpose of life is to be &quot;happy.&quot; I think the purpose of life is to be useful, to be responsible, to be compassionate. It is, above all, to matter and to count, to stand for something, to have made some difference that you lived at all.<br /> <br /> - Leo C. Rosten
