Late Night Thoughts

Sometimes I wonder to myself why do we exist.

2 am at midnight, when I am trying to sleep but cant sleep 1 bit, thats when I think whats the purpose of life. Everything was going well even before organisms appeared on this earth. Then what was the very reason of evolution.

 Take Birth--->Grow up--->Give Birth--->Die

Then what was the meaning of all this cycle. And if thats how it should go is the wish of god then what is again the purpose of millions of stars with planets totally inhabited. Among trillions of planets we might surely not be alone. It just cant be earth where life flourished .Then why in million year history we still remain undiscovered. Or are we seperated from other intergalactic organisms because we are a potential threat to the universe. Is everything a simulation??....Are we living in a virtual world??....Or is this all an alien kid's science project for school. And thats how these thoughts keep popping in this mind Astronomy has been truly been fascinating for me back since the time when I use to gaze at stars as a 5 year old kid. The more I have learnt about space since those days my eagerness to know even more has grown only stronger. Some nights I feel frustated about how I would never be able to go beyond earth in this life. All those trillions of stars are waiting to be discovered. How would the physics wprk differently there drives me crazy. What we know is not even a drop out of an ocean. I feel sad when I realise that would remain unknown to me forever. Cosmos by Carl Sagan and Neil Tyson are both just the web series for you to watch if you have interest in astronomy too. Moving through each episode will just keep you doubting more and more that for what purpose we exist
