Humanity,

I shall get back to my quest on life, and the question of "what's worth living".

I bought a new CD, "Humanity" by Scorpions, and there is a track with the same title "Humanity", and it goes like:

You're a drop in the rain Just a number not a name
And you don't see it You don't believe it
At the end of the day You're a needle in the hay
You signed and sealed it And now you gotta deal with it

Another sad picture.

There are two views, one is looking at one's life at a finite contiguous (closed and bounded:) ) interval of time during which the person is living, and another is look at one's life as a point, and absolutely necessary, in the continuum of humanity.

There is no absolute answer to the two point of views, otherwise, there would have been one. So choosing your point of view, is merely a matter of comfort. However, it shouldn't be difficult for one to list the set of values each view brings to life, and to picture a life based on each.
