Ask HN: Why do you exist? What is your biggest goal?

I am curious to know why you choose to exist and where you want to ultimately go in life, in immaterial and material terms. You need both to live a fulfilling life. What made you choose this path? How do you keep moving forward?

I exist to understand the seen and unseen, to apply it to serve all organisms of Earth, and to one day have a beautiful family of my own. I am 20 right now. I have a long way to go but, I am literally having the time of my life trying to do the impossible and get the girl at the same time.



It's all totally pointless. So might as well try to change the world and such.

Like Kirk said right before he finally died (about doing something hard that made a difference): "It was fun".


I want to alter the world for good in some small but tangible way. Right now I'm trying to do this through creating better technology.
