Am I Too Rational?

[PetarKa]

Can you rationalize why you want something?

I've been thinking amd thinking for quite some time. I've trying to find a reason for why we want the things that we want. For example, I've trying to answer the question "Why do we want growth, fulfillment, and happiness?" I mean HOW? Can you even find a logical reason, is it possible?

Looking for a logical reason has made me nihilistic and feeling lost for some reason. Am I too rational?

[Pav]

Logic is a house of cards. When you trace back your reasoning you will find one of two things; either your reasoning circles back around itself, or you reach a position which you hold to be true without any rational justification.

Reason is a useful tool, make use of it when you need to, but realise that it alone is inadequate for understanding the universe or indeed yourself.
