OPP on MOL DRAFT (Final draft)

You know? When asked the meaning of life, a lot of people jump immediately to say "I dont know" or something like a joke. People dodge the question, and it seems a lot of people havent really thought about it. Possibly subconsciously they have, but not that they would just answer off the top of their heads. They are afraid! People dont want to answer because they dont know and a lot of people would like to keep it that way. So, to further my understanding of other people's persepctives on the MOL, I interviewed a few people. Those can be seen under this post.
My brother, obviously joking at first, ("He starts off with "Beats me!" and then I look at him and he said to procreate and advance the human species. Living the way we're "supposed" to. He has a very pessimistic way of looking at it. He doesnt like to think that we have no control and no say towards who we are.") Im sure has thought about it before. Everyone has at one point, but the truth is, no one really knows. I was happy Manny had concluded with the saying "its different for everyone." It really is!
A lot of people like to think that the meaning of life has a lot to do with happiness, or something as silly as that. People like my brother, who are overly pessimistic about life in general have a better idea of what they think it is. But does that mean that they feel better than those who dont know? Is it better to stay kept in the dark, should you question?, or should you just not care?
Jennifer is a very happy self satisfying person who ALSO loves to bring everyone else into her fun. She enjoys life, its pretty obvious, and because she knows not so much off the top of her head, but still has an idea really says something.
In school, we had given out an interview and when asked "if you were to die right now would you be satisfied with the life you’ve lived?", most of the population of school said NO. Which is interesting to me because all of these kids laugh at the question, "what is the MOL?". A lot of people take for granted what they dont know. When they finally do take these things in to consideration, that is when a lot of people have enlightenments.
While I skimmed over other peoples blogs, I found this:"Less seniors said that they cared about finding happiness as opposed to other grades." and that really just hit me square in the head. I was just stunned that I ddint think of it previously, that as you grow older, you believe that you are wiser and know more, but there is way too much too know! People think knowing more and being able to "judge better" makes them happier. But isnt a child, who is accepting of anyone willing happier than the man who cant make friends because he doesnt like her hair, or his smile, or my laugh, or anything. you know?
