All of us have purposes in our life's work. For example, we all work towards a goal by working for it. But what if that goal is unattainable no matter how hard you work for it? That is when the question of "what is the purpose of life?" comes into play. Furthermore, people become disillusioned when the realize they cannot reach their full potential. Likewise, "Never Let Me Go" contains characters that realize that their purpose in life is to donate their organs to the "normals". Kathy, who is shocked that she cannot be "deffered" from donating her vital organs when she speaks with Madame and Miss Emily realizes that she is not viewed as a human being by the outside world. In fact, Kathy's and the rest of the donor's "rock" is the donations they give. Each one of us has a rock to push up the hill, and it the quality of our work that keeps the rock from falling down the hill over and over again.
