Does this statement have an answer? The mind loves to create stories and scenarios to help provide for some sense of purpose, but does it really accomplish this? Can thought explain the meaning of life? Isn't it futile to try to answer such questions. You want to be this and that so you are ok in the next? What is the next? Isn't it just another thought?
