The meaning of life - walking barefoot on a blend of red hot coals and razor blades while being chased by an angry Lion toward the edge of a cliff into Shark infested waters while having people shoot at you with Mini-guns from both sides while being Kamikazed from above. From every angle, whichever way you go - up, down, left, right, backwards, forwards - you're fucked! I'm sure most of you will've come to conclusion by now that I am a deeply cynical person? I know, it's the only thing that keeps me happy! My point for this post however is to do with the worst assumption we all make in life. It's such a bad assumption that I'm sure that when you read about it it'll boggle your mind as you've never thought of this subject this way before. Are you ready? Here we go...
As the first paragraph highlights, life is a piece of shit! But whenever anything bad happens we're always told "everything happens for a reason". We automatically assume that this reason is good. How do we know that? How do we know that the reason for the terrible things happening isn't bad? We don't! This, in my opinion, is the worst assumption we can make in life.
