existence is its own purpose, anything else is just gravy.
I see nothing wrong in having a good time and enjoying yourself. I'm all about enjoying myself. I love to party and enjoy friends but I guess for me I can find fun and joy in helping others too. But doing good and making the world a better place doesn't mean you have to go out of your way. Say hi to your neighbors, hold the door for someone, don't cut people off on the highway, find positive ways to make yourself happy. Doing good in the world just means spreading positivity and fostering community. Anything beyond that is up to you. And frankly thinking you've come into this world without obligations to those around you and those you love is ignorant and sad.
