Waking up to live on a beautiful planet full of life is reason enough for me to get up in the morning. When I hear those birds chirping and my cats playing, I am happy to be alive.

Anyway, all the "grand purposes" I've heard of aren't really for this life, but concentrate on some after-life that may or may not be. No one really knows for sure, so I'd rather live a good life now and hope that virtue is truly its own reward.

Why do you wake up every morning? Is it really for a distant, invisible being that lives outside of our understanding? Or do you have reasons that you've not really had the chance to explore before?
