Purpose in Life
Sure, without a doubt,
I have plenty of effect and impact
In my little life,
And that gives me plenty of reason to live,
But, without question,
My main purpose in life
Is to simply
Prepare for my death.
My wife, on the other hand,
Has a different perspective,
She wants to feel she’s had a good life,
While I just want to have a good death.
