Do you do things with a reason?

Question

As in, my husband says that I ALWAYS do something for a reason and if I don’t have a reason to do it, then I don’t. If that make sense 🤦🏼‍♀️
Also as in day to day activity or life choices.
Like for instance:
You are low on groceries and you go to the grocery store to buy food (reason-food to buy) 
Hope I’m not sounding crazy or some sh*t lol

Answer

Science has answered this question and your husband is right. No living species expends energy without a reason. It may not be clear to you or others what the reason is but there always is one even if it is that the action used to always result in a desirable consequence (although it may not anymore). We won’t continue to engage in that action for long though if there is no longer a desirable consequence. We learn to behave this way for survival. We can’t expend energy on actions if they don’t result in something we need or want.
