And the possible answer is ..

Belakangan gue sering bertanya2 byk hal ttg hidup, kebanyakan adalah pertanyaan "mengapa". Sambil terus coba nyari jawabannya.
Tapi sekarang kyknya udah dapet jawabannya. Dari novelnya Paulo Coelho yg baru gue selesai baca, Brida. Gak nyangka jg ada jawabannya di situ.
Banyak baca emang berguna ya hehe..

Gue salin bbrp kalimat penting deh di sini. Moga2 gpp ya, ga melanggar hak cipta.

'... I also know that we will never ever know the ultimate reason for our existence. We might know the how, where and when of being here, but the why will always be a question that remains unanswered. The main objective of the great Architect of the Universe is known to Him alone, and to no one else.'

'Right now, while we're here eating, ninety-nine per cent of the people on this planet are, in their own way, struggling with that very question. Why are we here? Many think they've found the answer in religion or in materialism. Others despair and spend their lives and their money trying to grasp the meaning of it all. A few let the question go unanswered and live for the moment, regardless of the results or the consequences.

'... the only possible answer to the question is I DON'T KNOW.

'This might, at first, seem frightening, leaving us terribly vulnerable in our dealings with the world, with the things of the world and with our own sense of our existence. Once we've got over that initial fear, however, we gradually become accustomed to the only possible solution: to follow our dreams. Having the courage to take the steps we always wanted to take is the only way of showing that we trust in God.'

'As soon as we accept this, life takes on a sacred meaning, and we experience the same emotion the Virgin must have felt when, one afternoon in her otherwise very ordinary existence, a stranger appeared to her and made her an offer. "Be it unto me according to thy word," said the Virgin. Because she had understood that the greatest thing a human being can do is to accept the Mystery.'

'So what's the point of looking for an answer then?'
'We don't look for an answer, we accept, and then life becomes much more intense, much more brilliant, because we understand that each minute, each step that we take, has a meaning that goes far beyond us as individuals. We realize that somewhere in time and space this question does have an answer. We realize that there is a reason for us being here, and for us, that is enough.

'We plunge into the Dark Night with faith, we fulfill what the ancient alchemists used to call our Personal Legend and we surrender ourselves fully to each moment, knowing that there is always a hand to guide us, and whether we accept it or not is entirely up to us.'
