What do you think this means and what is the overall tone?

And people wonder, wonder about this life we live. What is the meaning is there one at all, these are questions, questions that have built empires and destroyed them just as swiftly. Life is a quest; there is a goal though some cannot see it. Some choose to walk the path less traveled only to end up as the ones looking down and saying give me more. Money stretches the guts of pigs and makes them need more. In my travel I see the burning hills and the desperation, so desperate, desperate to the point of cannibalism. It is no surprise why the weaker ones of this world tend to end this quest before it is finished. Giving up in this quest is the same as death, though many people do not care, while they lay in the gutter on the side of the road asking for help they always seem to have forgotten there stupidity and it is a pity that I and many others say “I told you so”.
