I know this is always the ultimate question. Seriously what do you think is the true reason that we're here and more specifically, what do you feel is your purpose?

To love and live. God created people because he loved and wanted to give life. When people know him, they are fulfilled and satisfied.

What is the meaning of life? The question itself contains a word that is a misnomer. The word "life" should actually read "death" since this existence that we all like to call "life" is really "death." We all reside in the world of the dead, in "Hades" or "Hell," if you will. And of course, the dead know nothing, hence the reason we're continually asking, "What is the meaning of life?" Since we're also inquiring of the dead, we get no sure replies.
Those receiving the gift of life and resurrected (restored to the Land of the Living) will no longer have to ask, "What is the meaning of life?" Being alive, they also have knowledge and the answer to the question before it's even asked.
My purpose while in this world is to seek the Truth and the Way to escape the captivity and imprisonment in this world.

The Meaning of Life. True it is an ulitimate question, one that cannot be explained properly. I say that the meaning of life in my opinion is to try to survive in such a place with polution, infested food and diseases. My purpose is to become stronger and believe in my beliefs, that anything i do was already known by a higher authority (God). Of course this is just my opinion.

I don't have a purpose. The reason I'm here, truly, is that sex feels good. This might sound like I'm a smart-***, but that's the truth. We aren't here to spread God's word. We aren't here to make a difference. The reason we're here is that our parents decided that they wanted a child, or a condom broke, or some such. That's it.

My purpose is to play my role the best way that I can - by helping others live through the final act.

Well the true meaning of life is different from one to another. I think the meaning of life is to enjoy your life and acomplish your dreams, but also to remember God and thank him for the gift of life

Honestly I think we are here to help, love, and take care of one another. I also believe our greatest mission is to teach as many people as we can about the love of Jesus so no one would be left behind.

I FEEL LIKE MY PURPOSE IS TO UPLIFT THE BROKEN-HEARTED BY LETTING THEM KNOW THAT THINGS COULD ALWAYS BE JUST A LITTLE WORSE AND THAT THERE IS ALWAYS TOMORROW. I THINK THAT WE ARE PLACED ON EARTH TO ENCOURAGE EACH OTHER AND TO BE EXAMPLES OF WHAT GOD SENT HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON TO DIE ON THE CROSS FOR...TO SHOW PEOPLE THAT THERE IS ALWAYS A BETTER WAY...
