just for my two-satoshi thought.... i agree with you.. live is to - fill the blank all we want to do - and in the end, die. that's reality.. if somehow reincarnation is true... repeat the cycle... same way just like you said, everyday we wake up, what we wanna do? where we wanna go? who is i will be meet? after that, we going to sleep when feel tired.. then cycle repeat..

it's already in motion and i cant denied it.. even if someone or some force can alter the reality, such as; someone found a medicine to live forever.. i dont think it will end so well or atleast it would be interesting to imagine what happen to a person that can handle the burden of life it self and soon end up die anyway.. or simple example of someone try to change the cycle ; just breath and dont inhale..

cycle is a rule and whether like it or not, must follow..
