I exist to enjoy life; to explore and play, to be happy and to love, to not care about the past or worry about the future. This is what I intended when I came to earth. This is how God wants me to be.

I assert there is. If you can't even motivate your own existence, one day you may find yourself in a pickle.

Then you don't get what I'm saying. Deserving to exist sounds like one has to be or do something special to earn the right to exist. That is not how I feel about my life. I am not existing to seek validation from merit or judgments.

To say one needs to know why they deserve to exist also implies it's possible to not deserve to exist - like if you state why you earned the right to exist, then you have placed a condition on existence. If that condition changes, then you are in a pickle. imho.

Deserve? That's a pretty harsh and judgmental word.

That's my reaction too. Might as well ask: Why do you deserve to exist?

Also because the universe apparently grants me this ability through it's neat-o free will-based, desire manifestation mechanics. Interesting considering "existance" to be an ability, no? What lies beyond?(!)

I suppose we'd have to substitute "existence" with "life", or presume some sort of alternate existence.

There are already conditions on existence, or on life to be more specific. You have to follow certain rules to stay here, for example not jump off high buildings. My question is basically a hypothetical. As in, what is our intellectual defense as a human species, and as individuals, if there is a force greater than us? Would we fight back on the basis that, "we are because we are", or could we go deeper than that? Nature is random and chaotic, so there is no natural "right" to exist.
