Questions of the Universe

Today, we were faced with deep questions on life that we would not ask ourselves on a regular day to day basis. A basic theme that I seemed to follow was the purpose of the creation of the Earth. Why does the earth exist? if there is an above deity, what was His purpose on designing the world? If we end up dead somewhere sometime and either go to heaven or hell what really is there to live for? What is the point of effort, hardship, happiness, sadness? What is the purpose for our individual existence? Not much was said about this question as so much of it stems from our own experiences and beliefs. It is also a question that is not posed often. But such an interesting one, nonetheless. I think really it boils down to the journey that matters than the final product. In our current world, we are so focused on the result, that we sometimes forget the importance of the moment. This is what I was able to extract from our conversations. I feel - some people may have conflicting thoughts - uplifted to be on this earth and to be alive. I feel like so much can result from the different pathways that we are all walking on.
