Purpose

What is life without a purpose? If you do not have a purpose then it is like you 
don’t exist at all in this world. You feel as though you’re in a dark hell. Every one 
around you treats you as though you’re some kind of monster. You don’t know 
why you are so hated and why you even exist. You feel as if you’re a relic of the 
past that everyone wants to be rid of. You feel as if this pain isn’t normal.  You 
feel as though you will be trapped in this darkness of despair for all eternity. Until 
that one day you meet and find some one who accepts you. If you hadn’t of met 
this person, if you had remained alone, you would of ended up hated everyone 
for the pain they caused you.  The moment you meet this person you realize you 
to have a purpose. You’re life doesn’t seem so meaningless anymore. You were 
rescued from the darkness of that world that seems so far away now. You now 
have a purpose in this world thanks to that special someone.
