Life has no meaning

Life has no meaning

A Poem by Thisismythearpy
"

Many people will agree and disagree about this, but things for me got kinda weird last night when I wrote this. This is based no the principle of Camus and accepting the Absurd. Short and sweet.

"
Stare in bliss
Into the abyss
While you slowly crack a smile 
Life has no meaning
Is what you should be seeing 
So enjoy it for a while

I'm going to be the person that says life indeed has meaning, though, it is thoughtful to think about. The fact that people try to make life as meaningful as possible CAN be proof that life is meaningless, however, life has no meaning when we make nothing of it. Sometimes, we just wait for great things to happen instead of going out and making life wondrous to live in. Although, I truly understand where you are coming from. I have had these thoughts before, especially when experiencing family tragedies. I always wonder why life has to exist if I'm only going to experience pain. The same goes with failure. There's no point in living if all I will endure are failures. But, the world is so filled with mystery and complexity that it's hard to maintain that mindset and I have come to accept that some things are beyond our belief.

Nice work!
