you have hit on a very very important question

what is the point of living when we are going to die anyway in the end.

I would love to see a poem by you contemplating that, I certainly will be thinking about that today.

What's the purpose.....

   I really don't know what to say. Maybe because this hits so close to my own heart. I was disabled in '96...hit 'n run vehicle/pedestrian. I didn't write to comment on myself, but I wanted to say, I feel that way almost ALL the time. When you are no longer of worth, (or you 'think' you're of no worth), it feels like I'm just existing. This poem is very sad, but I like it because it is real...I know, and fight that feeling all the time. In fact, writing is my therapy.                                                                     -Sincerely-INAHA(Diana Evans)
