POWER: Waiting for Godot by Samuel Beckett

I'm questioning the purpose of human life...

Waiting for Godot, written by Samuel Beckett, was written in the 1953. This book is focused in the idea of the suffering of being, because both protagonists, Estragon and Vladimir, are waiting for something to attenuate their boredom, and for this reason I think that Godot can be interpreted as one of the many things that people wait for in life. 
In my opinion, this novel is irrational, and it doesn't take into account the chronological plot, the logical language, the themes, etc. I think that there could be different interpretations of the novel, such as the religious one, that makes us think that Godot is the representation of God, and the tree can represent the tree of death or the tree of life. Also, there is a political interpretation, because there are some people that think that the relation between Pozzo and Lucky is that of a capitalist to his labour, it's like a Marxist interpretation, and also I found that there are som that have understood it as an allegory for Franco-German relations.
