The purpose of life is right in front of us: It’s
to create a reality we want to inhabit — to reach towards the better
end of our conscious experience. At each moment, in every second
of life, we are given a choice about how we want to conduct ourselves in
this world, and though it might not always seem like it, each of these
choices are of consequence. They each interact with culture to give it a
new form; a form that we are responsible for creating by either doing
what is right or doing what is wrong in that specific moment.
“Look again at that dot. That’s here. That’s home. That’s us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every “superstar,” every “supreme leader,” every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there–on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.”
