The Purpose of Existence- Jennifer



                  One’s life is based upon finding satisfaction and fulfillment in different principals and compositions of the world, it’s based upon the morals and values that structure our persona and the forms in which we please the social system that corrupts ones being. The purpose of existence is dependent on the individual vales one beholds through influential figures like family friends or a society that forces our being into finding a stable and concrete definition to our existence. As humans we seek comfortability and prefer like everybody else because of the fear of originality, we seek a world of peace yet don’t act upon it, we seek freedom yet don’t strive to achieve it, we seek a world free of oppression yet are the oppressors, we seek physical and emotional ease in values of religion, success, and love and in that form find our purpose in life. Those with an established religion find peace in the morals created upon it, we hold faith in a divine figure without question or doubt because those of an open mind need not to see to believe in the creations of our creator. As believers we find the purpose of life based on the perfect plan our creator beholds, we don’t alter or rebel to his plans but rather live in ease with our faith. But politically and socially religion is the establishment of morals and set of principles that keep control and order in a population in order to reduce levels of crime and wrongdoing, it is only dependent on which side each induvial believes. Other live to succeed and value their level of success more than any other principle, they find purpose in their existence by holding a high job position, achieving the highest level of education, and becoming successful wealthy figures. We find satisfaction in receiving the best test scores, high grades, and being accepted to an excellent school, yet others don’t seek the same satisfaction, they find it to be unimportant and insignificant to their life, it very much depends on the believer. Those of bigger hearts live to find their perfect match, to form a perfect life with their soulmate and live a life filled of happiness and blessings. As they grow up they create their ideal man or woman and live to meet them, in order to find ease and satisfaction in their life. Those negligent of love care not to find their soulmate and worry more to love objects and nonliving materials, they form their own definition and principals of love, some which may not be accepted by the norms society establishes, since a social acceptance is of a perfect husband or wife that forms a perfect life in such a world. Each person holds their own values and principals and lives their life upon them, finding satisfaction and fulfillment in what they believe is most important in the world, some are fulfilled with all and don’t only hold one objective in life, other find their purpose in life in  single principal they behold. As an induvial one should explore the endless possibilities of the world, and never establish to meet the expectation of society’s norms, live upon your own values and principles in order to find complete happiness in such a chaotic world.

  1. This is really good! I really liked how you talked about the way the purpose of existence varies from person to person and all the different scopes one may have on their existence. your transitions from view to view were very nice and seamless, so it helped the piece connect all together. I also really liked how you were able to step out and view each perspective equally. Great Job! :)

  2. I like how you used different perspectives, like marriage and jobs, to support your point on life's meaning. There is a lot to think about from this paragraph; each sentence contains a different aspect to consider and it just keeps adding on ideas to think about as the read goes on. It is like the continuous problems that happen in the world; they are still there and reoccurring but the oblivion impedes most of us from doing something to stop it. This was a great concept and your syntax was well-structured. I know that is hard to manipulate so I give you credit on your success!

  3. One thing that I really liked about this is that you recognized how hypocritical we, myself included, can be, often without realizing it. I like that you included a call to action at the end as well. Great Job!!

  4. I just want to say that I agree with this so much, and I think the same way. I think there are so many people out there that are so set on finding their purpose in life or the purpose of human existence but that is solely based on what an individual believes.

  5. It is interesting to see everyone's different takes on existence and life. I thought you did a great job stating your thoughts and beliefs. I agree that it is all up to the individual...it is our choice and ours alone.

  6. The view of life in itself depicted in your writing is nearly spot on with mine. With that being stated, I loved the use of vocabulary and the points you preached. -Joshua Kidwell

  7. It's great that you incorporated a variety of perspectives to help build your point. People don't always realism this, but when they "live upon their own values and principles" they're really creating their own culture. This makes people unique in a way. Great job.

  9. This really gets into the sort of existentialist point of view that we have been reviewing in class. It also brings in mind that everbody has a different view on life and its purpose. Overall this is a great piece that brings deep-thinking along with it. -Brian Rojas

  12. I think finding the purpose in your existence is crucial, without purpose we are just lost wandering souls getting into trouble, and that's no good. Nice work, I loved the perspective you brought to this!

  14. This was a good piece that shows how people derive their meaning in life. I especially liked how you expressed that individuals can be corrupted. This is true as we are all shaped by our surroundings.

  20. I didn't know you could write like this since I never really got to know you throughout the years! I love your thoughtful deliverance of your existential views, and I hope you continue to read and think freely!

  23. I loved your piece and was reminded of the fact that as a people we are a paradox and that each of us may strive for one specific thing like success but we all have different perspectives and define success differently.
