I answered in the way that I did because, to me, sex drive and love explain why we came to be here. I didn't answer what we should do now that we are here because, to me, that's a separate question and I didn't want to contaminate the spirit of your thought with unsolicited answers, but, I see better now the exact way you intended it and I value your own reply very much. I'm very interested in others opinions too and for now, the answer to why we are here uses more time than I have available to answer in completeness, so my short answer is, referring back to the 'what we should do' rather than the why of being here, is, we need to learn to get along, peacefully, without causing damage to others, since we are here anyway and the 'why' of the question seems pointless to me, but I understand why people wonder, as I did when I was younger.

You won't be contaminating anything with your off topic thoughts. It got ruined, a self destruction happened this morning in my own head.
I like your post here. So you noticed, my emotional state from yesterday. This is weird, man, this morning I'm noticing that I'm in a wrong place asking a wrong question, then I'm seeing your pretty avatar. It looks nice. I just wanted to experiment a little, y'know, my head was stuck so I thought to myself, why not?
Does asking why annoy you, separate you from the person you're asking to, or does it unite us? Y'know, us at large. What would happen if someone were to go find a stranger and ask "Why are we(the two strangers) here?" The person can take a step back and one could ask instead, "Now that we are here, what we should do?" Sounds like almost the same thing that they would be doing.

I had been reading quite many threads elsewhere before I made this thread, and hours, days later, they hit me with this big emotinal waves. This makes me wonder why I'm made this way, how can I make it easier? To be honest, I don't even have a word to describe how I feel right this moment. One particular posts stood out, she was writing about her childhood, the circumstance that surrounded this lil girl was horrid, yet, to my eyes after reading the story, it was like she was born good. Exceptionally good and pretty soul.
I can't go on. I'd love to read more posts/reply to this thread too.
So, I'll pause and leave with one random additional thought.
I think about "Why are we here?". then I almost always think "How can I surge up within myself? (Everybody else seems to be doing fine with this...
)"
