    I was told this short story many years ago

    A young man finds out that a very wise old man resides at the top of a nearby mountain, so he decides to climb it to look for the old wise man.

    Once at the top he meets the elderly gentleman. The wise man asks the young man what he’s looking for? The young man says ‘I was told that you are very wise, so I have this question for you, What is the meaning of life? ‘

    The old man replies ‘ You want to know the meaning of life than follow me..’ and both proceed on foot toward the bottom of the mountain where they find a lake.

    They both walk until they are waist deep in the lake’s water, the young man wonders what this has to do with the meaning of life, but suddenly the old man puts his hand on the young man head and thrust him under the water, the young man struggles for a while submerged then finally frees himself and starts screaming at the old man that remains calm and says ‘ This is the meaning of life, if you had not freed yourself you would have perished!’

    It’s been pretty f~~~ed up so far that god c~~~ better start been a nice c~~~ to me . But i know he has f~~~ed with me to witch he has made me a better person . If i had an easy life with a silver spoon up my arse i would of ended up been a real prick like the majority of the arseholes in this world . So i should really be grateful to god for that and guess it is like he has given me the front door key . Hey he might have it planned like in revalations that i will be one of those c~~~s riding out over the lands to f~~~ s~~~ up . Yer i would say thats why he has f~~~ed with me so much .

    for me, the meaning of life is enduring suffering and surviving. I live at the mercy of other people deciding my fate. For the moment I am not my own man. But I know my sentence is almost up. I must continue this way for 3 more years. Then I can be free.

    I have 3 years to prepare. Then I will be free of the c~~~. 1147 days.

    it has already been one year since my child support changed and I was left homeless at the end of march. It had been one year since my younger daughter told me she wanted me out of her life. one year of heartbreak.

    I can take more, much more pain than this.

    What thou sewest thou reap, your daughter is headed (like all Western women) to a lonely manless life of endless bitterness.

    Glad you’re here May-7-2020, showing unhitched men what they’re in for when they hitch up with the world’s worst generations of women to have walked the earth freely scorning and denigrating men.

    In my life women are f~~~ed off and spiritually dead.

    There is no magic in MGTOW, just recognition of the truth and logical decision how to avoid dangers. The red pill is but the truth, it is no magical potion. Do not think in this modern world men have no longer have natural enemies, men are prey to women and government.

    I thought it was always 23 ?!?

    Seriously, The meaning of life ?? (to ME anyway is,….)

    Biblical: To have Health;Wealth;and be Wise.

    Solomon (The son of David) upon inheriting the Kingdom on his fathers death is asked by God what it is he wants.

    Solomon’s reply: To be healthy, wealthy & wise. 1Kings 3:5-15

    There is a difference to being WISE and being Smart;

    Wisdom is intelligence correctly applied.

    Marry again, Hell NO ! ( Even JESUS was hung on a cross just once)

    To advance our species as far as possible. This is done through helping others and yourself grow mentally. For instance dumping women who are not actively on the same page. (Almost all women.) And dumping stupidity wherever it is found. Whether it be blind patriotism, religion, keeping up with the Jones’, or wherever.

    I’m still trying to figure that one out. To live day to day and spread the wealth of the wisdom I’ve gained over the decades. I may never figure out any meaning other than to take care of myself and look after the ones I love.

    I like the answer the Dahli Lama has for this question:

    “Can I, um, ask a question?”

    “Please.”

    She spoke with complete seriousness. “What is the meaning of life?”

    In my entire week with the Dalai Lama, every conceivable question had been asked—except this one. People had been afraid to ask the one—the really big—question. There was a brief, stunned silence at the table.

    The Dalai Lama answered immediately. “The meaning of life is happiness.” He raised his finger, leaning forward, focusing on her as if she were the only person in the world. “Hard question is not, ‘What is meaning of life?’ That is easy question to answer! No, hard question is what make happiness. Money? Big house? Accomplishment? Friends? Or …” He paused. “Compassion and good heart? This is question all human beings must try to answer: What make true happiness?” He gave this last question a peculiar emphasis and then fell silent, gazing at her with a smile.

    “Thank you,” she said, “thank you.” She got up and finished stacking the dirty dishes and cups, and took them away.

    I hear you brother, women have become mean and heartless but there is some hope.. Check out one that fights for us men , I ended up joining this site because of her website.

    Sorry to hear that brother, you are therefore part of the 16% that does not believe. Life on earth is not fair but it does not mean that there is no higher power.

    nd says ‘ This is the meaning of life, if you had not freed yourself you would have perished!’

    So in other words the mean of life is to live. 🙂
