Dear Geek:

You care a lot about having a purpose for your life beyond mere survival. You care about having a mission, something meaningful to motivate you, to bring passion to your life, something to make life more than mere survival. You mentioned your “world-improvement potential” and you wrote: “When a worker from the assembly line goes to a child, awakens his interest in technology (for example) and then the child becomes a master in some field because of that interaction, then the worker’s impact is much greater than anything he could have done on the assembly line.”

That interaction you wish to have with a child is the interaction you wish another had with you when you were a child, isn’t it? You wish that someone older than you would have removed you from the Assembly Line kind-of-life you had, a life where you were nobody special, and lead you to a life where you were someone special?
