Where is Neo-Socrates when we need him? I find it very interesting the human need to have questions settled rather than open. Why must there be an answer? Why are we so resistant to evidence of our fallibility? It's disturbing how many out there seem to be seeking validation as opposed to truth, or really validation masquerading as truth.

My preferred answer to why is there, or what is the meaning of, life is why must there be a reason? Whether there is a point or it's all just a happy accident that simply exists is sort of irrelevant. What you do know is that you are alive here and now and you should use the opportunity to make the most of the experience. So much time wasted on finding an unnecessary answer just so that you don't need to feel the slight anxiety of an open question.
