DoTA: Mirrormatch Experiences

About a month ago, I watched a 3 vs 3 mirrormatch game with Barathrum, Alchemist and Drow Ranger as the heroes... and I thoroughly enjoyed it. As in!!!

Why Do I Wake Up Each Day?

I saw this video on YouTube: It's not one of the best videos I've seen but it did make me think. Why do I wake up each day? Frankly, I do not know the answer yet.
