What is the answer to life?
That is the question that many of us are asking, We stumble aimlessly through wondering why we are doing what we are doing. As a child, we do so without a care in the world. But as we grow older, our brains begin to fully develop and pretty soon, we begin to wonder what our purpose is on this Earth. Are we meant for something great or are we simply pawns in the big game of chess known as life?
I have asked myself this question many times. I have sat in my thinking chair at Gateway and pondered upon the possibilities of my purpose. I sit and sit and think and think only to come up with nothing. I had begun to think this was something that I shall continue to wrestle with for the rest of my life.
Life is a funny game; just when we think we have the answer, we are hit with a curve ball, therefore proving our research to be wrong. And everything that we think will bring us the joy and happiness we desire turns out to be false and worthless. To some, life is nothing more than one large red herring.
Many philosophers of our generation and past generation have tried to uncover this mystery known as life, yet none have come even remotely close to discovering the complete answer because it is nearly impossible. Some think they already have it, while others have simply concluded that it will never be found.
I'm sure you have thought about this. I am most certain that a great lot of you are still thinking this. Either you are still on this long journey or you have given up and headed home.
I began my research for this answer some time ago, and I have found many results, most of what were dead ends. Some say it is ice cream, while others hold the belief that it is allocated somewhere in oatmeal-flavored spoons. Some are just content with the things are, simply sitting on their front porch sipping lemonade while shooting anyone who dares to trespass onto their property.
With so many theories, it is possible for one to lose sight and become jaded. We travel the world, searching every crevice for any piece of evidence, and pretty soon begin to get accustomed finding nothing to the point where we could have found it but passed it up because we were not paying attention.
Yet in the midst of confusion, there is hope. Because I have found the answer. You may find reason to argue with me, but I know that it is true. And I am willing to prove it to you and I will do so in two words.
Inconceivable, you might say. How could he do such a thing?
It is possible. It may not seem so, but once you hear it, you will be instantaneously enlightened. It is something that will shatter your mindset and cause to develop a whole new way of thinking. It's depth is so impossible to measure that even the greatest thinkers of our time would never be able to unlock it.
Some will call me a buffoon and a liar, but that is a risk I am willing to take, because I know that I am right and that they are wrong. Once they hear the words leave my lips, they will be awestruck, dumbfounded, and enlightened. They will then turn and recognize me as the greatest thinker of all time. Even more so than Hemingway or Thoreau.
Now, most of you are wondering with itching anticipation what this discovery of mine is. You should feel rather fortunate that I am willing to share it with you because it is so exclusive that not even the President should be allowed to hear about this. So brace yourselves because here are the two words that will bring you the joy and happiness that you have so desperately search for all of your life.
Chuck Norris.
