Better?


Purpose... gives us something to do?  A point to live/exist or a drive that allows us to exist/live.

Purpose to sustain at least. Sustain and then push beyond.


Haha... I go looking for a better youtube clip and end up where I started.

Omg Neo is fa-bu-lous too bad he doesn't play piano.

Agent Smith is a little more keyed in on 'reality' and what's going on.  More of a clue than Neo. Neo's always surprised and clueless, but has more freewill.

Interesting that Smith is saying purpose is overriding free will.  No choice then.  Just controlled by purpose.

Maybe that's the purpose of purpose.


Unless you've already made the choice, and that choice gives you purpose, and that purpose governs you and your decisions.
