Comment on what even is the purpose of life?

One: Maybe you’re depressed
Two: Maybe you’re tricked by capitalism and religion into believing everything is special and needs a grand purpose
Three: We desperately need things on earth right now, dog shelters are overrun, solar panels need to be built and sold, bus lanes needs to be put in roads
Four: Just because it all ultimately means nothing, empires rise and fall, some remembered some forgotten, doesn’t mean nothing matters to someone else, I still remember 4th grade friendships and the things they taught me. Even if I never see them again. They still matter.
