(The point of life? Damned if I know.)
Is there any point?
To most of what we do.
Toiling time away.
Ignoring fallen dreams.
We earn our own survival.
But give up a life well-lived.
No stories will be told.
That involve our daily grind.
Too many traps upon the road.
To suck away your chances.
Greed of those around you.
Forging guilt if you try to soar.
Who thought that this was good?
That most will waste their lives.
Many corpses buried.
Among their shattered aspirations.
Legends of Windemere 
Some things have been disheartening, yes. I would love to see these things change.

For me, this is more of a call to action. Don’t give up your joy for those dull pursuits.

That’s the trick. Humans have emotional and mental limits. Enough discouragement can cause one to reach them and break.
