what objectives ought one to have. To live: Earn bread, clothes and arrange a shelter. What more is worthy: To live a life of character which, i guess, means being good to all than to be good just to oneself.

Then one ought to enjoy the life, look for it's fruits and flowers and bware of bushes. It is not simple though anymore since we started building houses and owning shares. We are now a part of the environment and environment does need our help sometimes.

it feels good to think about a life which is, apart from my job as a software engineer, filled with interacting with more people, seeing more places, observing more behaviour, recording them attentively and, may be sometimes, use the wisdom gained thus in my later enterprises.

Would it be a life lived well? I see no reasons to be unhappy. The key idea to me is use all capabilities and resting no more than a soul and a sound body requires.
