7 definitions by Ecclesiastes II
A book in the Bible written by a philosopher who could not understand God's plan. Trapped in his own thoughts he came to the conclusion that life is useless and what we do is useless. "Generations come and go but the world stays the same. The sun still rises in the east, and sets in the west. All the rivers flow to the sea, only to be swept up and start the dreary process all over again. It is useless I say useless." - Ecclesiastes.
Ecclesiastes was a pessimist who had everything he ever wanted but still felt depressed and useless.

Somewhere along the lines, humans got lazy. And like everything else, writing has been getting worse and worse since the 1960s or so. These days we are so robotic and so hurried that we have neglected what used to be an art so we can be more efficient. Texting, is the death of writing, video is the death of radio, autotune is the death of talent, and pencreatic cancer is the death of David Bowie. In fact these days I try to use big words like pancreatic, so I don't get lazy. I try to listen to older music (and trust me it's better). Time is not always progress, and texting is proof of that. We went upwards from cave drawings and hieroglyphics to calligraphy, to cursive and regular handwriting, then down to texting. George Orwell was right with his 1984. "New-speak" is more simplified. We even have a list of banished words, slowly killing expression through speech, how's that for a shrinking vocabulary. In short, texting is humanity trying to go extra fast by killing expression and as many letters as possible.
Texting, would never be used in a sentence, at least not a spoken one. No, people would try to shrink it as much as possible, to txtng perhaps. It's 2 goddamn letters yet people will do anything that will reduce the time to get the point across. The Millennium marked the coming of the end of many things, and actual writing was one of them. This is why we should go to school, because if we spent the first 17 years of our life doing nothing but socializing and playing video games, majority of the population would be illiterate. Then the first immigrant that comes from god knows where takes your potential job away. Get off the internet right now and go read a damn book if you know what's good for you.

To understand the meaning of life, first, think of the most basic lifecycles, plant lifecycles. A flower's sole purpose in life is to grow, attract a bee for pollen, then let loose new seed to become new flowers. Now move on to a living creature, the moth. Though they are known for eating clothes, many are born without mouths. They spend their lives as caterpillars, they eat, grow, explore and then become moths. Then they spend the remainder of their lives reproducing. For fish, they are born, eat, grow, then reproduce. Based on the previous statement we can assume that the meaning of life is to reproduce. But if you jump to that conclusion you may miss out on the other meanings. While the flower moth and fish only care about the preservation of their species, humans are much more complex. To say that your life has the same goals and limits of that of a fish would be idiocy, have you so little faith in your own kind? Yes reproduction is important but it is only a small part of the greater goal of all human life. I have come to understand 4 meanings of life. Reproduction is only the first. The second is evolution. We are the superior species, can destroy the earth if we wanted. But we should always look for a way to better ourselves. To grow faster, stronger, smarter. (Continues in example)
Things like phones and TVs, they hinder not one but 2 of life's meanings. What's to gain from something that isn't real? Reality is where life is, do you honestly dislike this world so much that you must constantly distract yourself from it? You are defeating the 3rd meaning, to live life in its entirety. We all have but a single chance. If something goes wrong so be it. Alexander the great died in his 20s, but did he have anything to regret, NO! He had almost conquered what was considered the entire world. While these days warlords are nonexistent, you must find a way to feel accomplished. Which brings us to our 4th meaning: happiness. Why listen to a song that you don't like? Why go to a parade that you do not support? It is useless. Time is precious and our lives are short. The best we can do is be happy and live life to the fullest. That's The Meaning of Life
