Personally, I find the lack of a predefined purpose in life rather freeing.
Also, I don't like the notion that I might, upon death, find myself conscious in some as yet unknowable state. That's a scary as fuck thought. Good or bad, heaven or hell, that idea is not a fun one to me.
This is it, right here, for better or for worse, for as long or as little a stretch of time as I end up with. That I am comfortable with.
