The Cat only grinned when it saw Alice. It looked good-natured, she thought; still it had very long claws and a great many teeth, so she felt that it ought to betreated with respect.
'Cheshire Puss,' Alice began, rather timidly, as she did not at all know whether it would like the name: however, it only grinned a little wider.
`Come, its pleased so far,' thought Alice, and she went on.
`Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?'
`That depends a good deal on where you want to get to,' said the Cat.
`I don't much care where--' said Alice.
`Then it doesn't matter which way you go,' said the Cat.
`--so long as I get somewhere,' Alice added as an explanation.
`Oh, you're sure to do that,' said the Cat, `if you only walk long enough.'
Well, the Cheshire Cat is the only character in Wonderlandwho listens to Alice. The cat is always grinning and disappears and reappears whenever it feels like. Sometimes it disappears and leaves its wide grin behind. Alice learns about the rules of the Wonderland from the 'Cheshire Cat'. Just don't think of me..Please..I am the Laughing Buddha on MS. LoL.
`In that direction,' the Cat said, waving its right paw round, `lives a Hatter: and in that direction,' waving the other paw, `lives a March Hare. Visit either you like: they're both mad.'
`But I don't want to go among mad people,' Alice remarked.
`Oh, you can't help that,' said the Cat: `we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad.'
`How do you know I'm mad?' said Alice.
`You must be,' said the Cat, `or you wouldn't have come here.'

After all this classic fairy tale heard way long back as kids and is always recalled by many of us. Its interesting to learn how its obliviously gives differentperspectiveswith differentpeoplewhen they see it in differentcontextsand not as a Fairy Tale, esp. as grown-up Adults.
In fact none of the tales are fairy tales, they are lessons that we adults need to learn.
Well as long as Alice has no clear goal, She will end up going nowhere or may help others achieve their goals.
The purpose “what we do” or “why we do it” or “why we are here” is all part of a fairy tale. Just Pondering where did I end up?Oops.
