To Each Our Own

On the subject of The Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy, what is our purpose in life and what is the ultimate question of life the universe and everything?

I think it is different for each person. We are all here to do what we alone are meant to do. Some people may be destined to be president, actresses, athletes, businessmen, scientists, doctors, or whatever we turn out to be. Yes I know this is cruel because some people just aren't that fortunate in this world. They barely have enough money to get by or they end up having 10 kids that they never wanted. However, I believe that that is what was supposed to happen. If you believe in fate and predetermined destiny, we are only here for ourselves.

When Arther is asked what he thinks the ultimate question is, he answered it for himself Is she the one? Maybe his purpose was to find someone to spend his life with. Again that was only for himself. Not everyone will find the one person they are supposed to spend their life with (if they are supposed to spend their life with someone). We are always only thinking of our selves in this world. We interact with and depend on others for various reasons but ultimately that is only for our own sanity.

There are so many TV shows and media that have the story line of a one great person that is meant to save the world from destruction or whatever, but I don't think that the world can be saved if its meant to be destroyed in some way. Everything happens for a reason. We are all here to do what we need to to survive with what we have been given. Yes some people have been given more than others but thats life and we just have to deal with it.
