You have no mission!?
I think that is not ture.
All human begings have some missions that is why we were born on this world.
Why don't you look for your mission?
Sometimes you are not realizing your mission.
You have the mission . |

Why should I? I am living a happy life, I don't see why I should waste time to think about something complicated. |

My mission is to live in harmony, contentment, and peace.
If the world wants to join me in my mission, that would be great! But I know this is unlikely, and a waste of time to try to make it happen.
Most people are more concerned about superficial things like money, good looks, and material possessions.
That's ok - live and learn.

I agree with you. Same amount of sillyness as "what happens after we die?"

That's not a silly question! We were born to earn money.

If I'm not (so called) "boob-oriented", then I'm not a real guy. You know as long as I'm normal and not homosexual, I'm "boob-oriented", so I can't do anything about it.
But the money orientation is the key of success in this modern society. So there is a big difference in both orientations: "boob-orientation" is what I should be naturally, and money orietation is my own realization as the best method to get power.
So for me money-orientation is more important.
PS: Come out of your strange Freud-kind of thinking which says that sexuality is the main point in love! Freud's thinking was that of the 19th century, which has been influenced by the Victorian age very much, which is strongly materialistic!!! He could only be popular because there was a change of thinking in human head that spending money is more important than saving money, he could only be popular because all men had a materialistic thiking in that time!
If a man and a woman do nothing else than sex all day, will they be happy? NO!

Not really. some guys ain't gay, but they prefer women's butt to boobs, so they are supposed to be another sort: butt-oriented men.

I admit that I used to be a fan of Frued. especially during my college years. but not anymore. but I still have a materialistic thinking. therefore, I don't think what's wrong with money-orientation.

I don't completely agree with you. imagine: a womanizer and a hooker would be very happy asthey have sex all day long and all night long, as long as this hooker dosen't have syphilis or something like that. |

Sometimes money comes from success, sometimes success comes from money. Sometimes money comes from luck - but not often. But money does not equal success.
Money is basically the usual way people in modern society keeps score. Not peace, contentment, or happiness - but money. That seems screwed up to me.
I used to be a Vice President in one of the most exclusive International Private Banks in the world. All of my customers had lots of money. None less than US$5 million, the highest over US$100 million. They were the most stressed, unhappy, frightened group of people I have ever met.
It is very common for wealthy people to live their life in fear that they will lose their wealth. I left that career because I couldn't spend my time around people that were more concerned about the score than about being content.

Oh really? I haven't thought about it yet. Yeah maybe you are right. If I want to earn big money I also have to spend much time into it, therefore I won't have that much time with friends, with girlfriend, and most important, with my hobby! I would become fat and unsporty (have I told you that I have optimal body-mass-index?  )
Yeah you are right, the most important thing is to live a happy life. You are a nice guy. |

You say the truth. Moments in the life you live one time. The mission in our life may be to help to other people, because we can to give good things and else. When you are good with you family, friends or neighbours you are good with yourself. In the beginning you have not the aim of your life clear, but you destiny will put it in the way. ok |
