First of all I must apologise…For it is true that most of my blogs are completely meaningless and rubbish-however more fool you for reading it! However while we are on this topic, I would like to ponder meaning. For couldn’t conversation, emotions, love, friendship all be considered meaningless by that same judgement.
There is no physical need for such things. Within the complex systems of our Earth; feelings, belief, happiness etc have no equation or influence on the world. Existence is dependent upon physical factors which are necessary for life.
So perhaps instead we must look at a necessity which suggests that for our mind/soul, all things are necessary. For even something done to prove its meaninglessness, was done for a purpose, and purpose suggests there was meaning to such an event. So if we believe that there is more necessity to life than the physical needs, we must assume that everything has point. For either in the action or reaction of an event, some point must be achieved, or else it would cease to exist itself. Therefore, the statement that something is meaningless refers to ones own opinion, not the meaningfulness of the event itself. Therefore I shall continue to fill my blogs with things that have meaning to me. Whether they have meaning to you or not is irrelevant as in the creation, they are given the purpose of self expression, so if you find any of it useful it is…a bonus!
Thought for the Day: Everything has a purpose, even if it is not being fulfilled.

And btw this would have been blogged on wednesday, had there not been vital maintenance to blogger.com shortly before midnight! grrr
Wow, that was hard to read... many, many words! But good ones...
As to the apparent 'meaningless-ness' of 'happiness' and 'friends' and such things... its actually believed that such things play a great part in keeping us stress-free and healthy, and thus alive. And sure that has the greatest meaning in life.. our base purpose in life is to survive?
But of course everything has meaning... its just some meanings are more poignant than others... and sometimes its hard to find a meaning in something... but its often worth searching for. xx
I feel this is an unfair attack and usage of my phrase here; I was only referring to the general pointlessness of clever-sounding phrases that really don't mean anything, not life in general, nor this blog in specific.
Besides that, an interesting thought. Or series of thoughts. In the grand scheme of life, the universe, the world, can we say that our existence is meaningful? Or is our existence and the associated futility of that realistically no better than absolute meaningless bollocks?
My comments are becoming longer than your blogs. This is a worrying trend.
Everything has a purpose, hence meaning...and if people fine no purpose or meaning of things that other people say then thats their problem...I don't think your blogs are meaningless...I don't think anyone writes particually adventurous things on their blog as we are generally just normal people...and to the outside World our blogs may seem meaningless. However, if read in context ie if you 'know' the person who writes such meaningless comments they are indeed meaningful.
Concluding things may seem meaningless out of context...Phew!
Also...don't take notice of negative comments that are made regarding your blog!
