The beginning

Life......What is it actually?
The constant question that would plague any one is what is life actually? What is the reason of this life we are living? These questions didn't spare me. There was a time when I would waste time, actually constructively just thinking what is life. In my thought process I came across different theories. One of these theories were life is a plan. A supper flawless plan. Every action in your life has a consequence. A reason. Every action you take is preplanned. Every step you take is pre-calculated. And the consequence can be foretold. Its the knack of getting to know the basic pattern of the course which life can take. Life can be linked with artificial intelligence. A logical action and the consequence.
That theory was there when I was a 16 year old kid. After that I started to think more into this matter. Life was not just some logical inputs and a preplanned output. It was more than that. It was something which was beyond my scope of understanding. It was something else. Then some where I read if you want to know the meaning of life, live it for someone. Someone really special. I tried. But just couldn't find that special person. There was another proposition, live life for yourself. You'll come to know the meaning of life. But for a guy like me living for myself was stupidity.
So if I couldn't live this life for someone special, or for my self then what was the reason of this life I was living? It didn't make any sense to me. One day I was having a little chat with my mom on this matter. We had a good debate on this, which eventually I won but her one point struck me hard. There is always a reason. So to you your life may be nothing but for another person your life may be something great. What if you were able to change someone else's life. Touch someone else's life. There were always a possibility of change for the better.
