According to 'Deep Thought' in "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy", it's 42. Other than that, I don't know.😆

Seriously, though: for me at this time, I'd have to say being there for my husband.

You pose a deeply philosophical question that I think most people spend a lifetime trying to figure out.

Hi there, it is a question that many of us ask and I often have, especially when i am down or anxious, I wonder what the point is and what am I for. Okay, I am of purpose to family and friends, but in the grand scheme of things? I find that helping people, anyone in need who I can help in some small way, family, friends and strangers gives me a sense of purpose and even though I don't do it for reward, it does give you an increased feeling of self worth, better perspective and a better appreciation of what I do actually have.

Not what you're looking for?
