What is the point?

Everything has a point or rather should have a point. If the universe originated from 'nothing', a 'point 'must surely have succeeded. A 'point' comes after a 'nothing' and 'nothing' comes after a 'point'.
Confused? So am I. This point has always baffled me and I have been constantly asking myself questions like ' What is the point?'. But let me try to explain. we try to search for a point or a sense of purpose to remove the pointlessness in our life, but what worries us more is the pointlessness that follows after the point is reached.
It has been years when our geometry teacher taught us how a fixed point is necessary to draw a circle. And yes it has been years that i have been searching for the same point about which my life could revolve.
There are times when you have to face 'it'. They call 'it' as 'a deafening silence'. This deafening silence is not just an oxymoron but is strangely palpable. It brings you to a pointlessness and then you start wondering if 'pointlessness' is the only 'point'. It has been long that i have been wondering that 'what is the point?'.
There are many like me who ask this question to themselves daily. But this has to remain unanswered, for if it is answered than what is the point?
I am amazed how a 'point' can be so important that people keep searching for it throughout there life. I amazed how a 'point' can lead you from the infinitesimal to the infinite. I am amazed how a 'point' can take you to another 'point' and you could thus move on a continous graph of life. The infinite is full of points but then you have to search your's and complete your circle....
