Wads there to life?

is life all an illusion or is life real?

are friends and family real??

does the earth stay like this forever.. will resources run out anytime?

when's the earth getting swallowed by the sun and are there beings alive in outer space?

It seems like there are no definite answers to these questions and life in general is all about living to your fullest - which is determined by your culture and societal expectations. in our culture and society, does working your ass off everyday and having a so-called 'proper' job, marriage, family, house, car equate to being alive? Does that make anyone alive i would like to ask?

What about people on the other side of the globe? How do they measure success or failure or just being alive? Why does being alive matter so much.. Most people seem like the living dead anyway - those u see in crowded mrts going to work everyday and those who cant tell the difference between today and tmr in their wild nights. Who is considered alive? Hearts alive and beating might be used to describe people in a coma by some.

What defines life and why do people and animals (plants) alike want to survive? What does it take to survive and live on? Why the survival of the fittest and not survival of the most successful? Fittest in the past might equate to present-day successful. Then does this successful mean wealth, power, fame, glory -- the Benz/Lumburgini, the Landed property, the career success etc.. Why do most people gravitate towards this kind of definition when defining success? Do they say this in public because this is wad's expected of them (and secretly plan to do otherwise) - or do they say it because they seriously mean it and will strive for that to the end?

Why do some people have certain beliefs and practices whereas others simply do not care about it? Does it matter so much to believe and practice those things??

Back to the question of whether life is real, is there reality? Are friends real -- i mean they're alive and all, but does friendship last forever and remain the same? I really duno.. It depends on both parties to work on the friendship continuously.. once one party falls, the entire friendship is delicate and might falter too. same principle as romantic relationships..
what's REAL in life?

One might not be real too - to oneself. How many people honestly acknowledge their fears, their joy, their sorrows and embrace them, and face them? Many more people avoid, or choose to forgo their feelings, because emotions bring them down (sometimes). Can a human be real if he does not attend to his negative emotions but chooses to lavish in his positive emotions? Is life real then -- or a matter of well-chosen paths (as some would say).

What is there to life -- earthquakes, tsunamis, famine, diseases spread like wildfire amongst the crowded and destitute populations of today. All over the world, people seem to be caught in this battle with earth - to die or to survive depends on pure luck and sheer courage. nobody knows why, but earth seems to be lashing out its revenge on us humans who pollute the earth, who trample over it and cause it to run dry, and rid it of its forests which provide it refreshing air etc.. Is this real or an illusion? People Are dying in front of our TV sets, and international aid seems to show concern to the victims. But is this reality ? What is reality??

AHH !!! if someone actually read this long a post of i duno-what.. then please respond!
