Which, of course, reveals the fragility of the statement "the purpose of life is
to live". Namely, its doomed to failure. Our fundamental "purpose" is one we

Our choice is "meaningless" or "futility"? Like I said, "purpose" is just an
illusion. "We exist so that we can exist" is an empty tautology better
rewritten as simply "we exist".

"We exist". Okay. And now what? That's more important, I think.
