Life is Absurd

Albert Camus came up with the idea that life is absurd. When I first heard this, and the reasoning behind, I was somewhat depressed. Then I realized that life is absurd, and that's a good thing. Just think about it, the fact we exist at all is amazing. If you look into our reproduction it's a miracle that any ones born. And just look at evolution.
It is in our nature somehow, though, to search for meaning in life. A purpose. Something that doesn't exist, and this realization cripples us. What people fail to grasp, is that we can create our own meaning, our own purpose for being here. And all we have to do is follow our hearts.
If you haven't, I suggest reading Create Your Own Freedom in the right side bar. You should know, your life is in your hands.
