To point or not to point.. Is the point...

A couple of days back I was talking to a friend..
I was telling him about a movie I watched.. The movie is named " Hello Sister,Good bye Life".

The movie had nothing great except that when I was flicking channels I saw this really really cute guy and I continued to watch the movie.

Coming back to where I started from, I was just telling my friend about the movie. I started describing the plot. And how the story evolved, when suddenly he pops up saying .. Does all of this have a point?

And I never realised that I was just talking, telling him about my day and a not-so-great movie that I watched. I did not think whether there was a point or not. I was just talking. Simply.

I then said, " Why does there have to be a point? Why cant we just talk"
To which he replied, "Because there has to be a point toeverything. Other wise there's no point in anything"
" Why?? Why can't things be abstract?Why do they have to be specific? Why do we want there to be a point in whatever we want to do?"

To which we kept talking and tossing things back and forth for a few minutes and then changed the topic.

I write this to understand,as my question still remains unanswered, about why does there have to be a point to everything???

It has to be rational to an extent, I understand but I dont understand the concept of the point.

Hoping some of you can shed some light.

The Abyss

Some where within
so lost I am
Where I see and hear
not a passing soul
All I feel is this force
That pulls and tugs at me
from deep within to ..The Abyss .. Unknown

It makes me feel
so weak within
so frail
so pale
so lost ... within ..The Abyss .. Unknown

It's dark and cold
some where within
all black
no mist
no fog
no rain
no smile
no tear
no fear
no thought
just a stabbing pain ... within ...The Abyss ...Unknown

Yet some times
I feel a flutter a within
that proves to me
some where beyond
lies a place
that will define me bliss... beyond .. The Abyss... Unknown.
