I look at it like learning an instrument. I do it because it's fun, and the=
 goal is to be good at it so that it will be even more fun. There are sever=
al practical benefits of learning Lojban, which I'm sure others will enligh=
ten you about, but the real reason I do it is because it's an end in itself=
.
