Why do we exist?
To perpetuate the species?
To evolve? To become one with a god? or this is me, Just to get thru six, seven, eight decades and not really know anything at all. Love you all, but literalists need not reply.

7. We are units of information. Our purpose is to create, preserve and pass along that information.
We pass information through our DNA to future generations, through our stories and art, through our everyday actions that affect others, through teaching others.

8. Sorry to be literal
but there is no "why." There is only how.
Our DNA exists to procreate itself. We are the vehicles it created with no forethought, intelligence, or intent to do so. |
