Soren Kierkegaard at one point or another made a case for the point of existence. He said that to be considered truly alive, truly existing, we must have passion.
Im sure that you can argue the line between passion and obsession. But the point is still relevant. Accepting the mundane, not exercising our amazing imaginations, not having passions, things we love, etc. thats just a silly way to live life. IMO.

I felt that this was relevant, sorry if its really not. *Crawls back to the shadows*
