They say we all come into this world with a goal to accomplish.
And we actually put obstacles in our way to keep ourselves
from accomplishing them. To try and overcome them.
Some people actually come into the world to be a PAIN. If we
don't like them, SO WHAT!
But what if it is one of our LOVED ones? We should appreciate them for taking on a life of misery in order to teach us patience and tolerance.
I like The Way of the Warrior. And I read the other day, that
there is a mission for a warrior. Warriors change the WORLD!
And nobody even knows who they are.

Why would you ask such a tough question? Couldn't you have asked my favorite food or something? :)
My purpose is to develop myself mentally, spiritually and physically to the best of my potential. Further it is to love and raise my son to the best of my ability and to try to shape him as he grows. I am supposed to serve my world and my creator.

To enjoy what I have and not what I may desire.
I do not strive for any particular purpose in life, however I do
have a very purposeful life to those around me, family and friends.
Life is a beautiful ride.

My guess would be to learn from the hard lessons in life that I have dealt with, and also be able to deal with good things in life in a proper way (i.e. learn from mistakes and don't get arrogant or snotty when things are going well--remember that things could always revert back).

My purpose in life is to be the best mother and wife I can be and lead my children in the way of th Lord by teaching and example. first and fore-most. Secondly to help others either by volunteering at the local food bank or helping to get food to them. and third to pray for all who are in need regardless of who they are. Very first is to live for the lord and to be his tool.

To collect the most toys??
OK, that was a hack answer I know.
Truthfully, I still don't know what my purpose in life is just yet. I'm enjoying the journey though...

Well, that's a very deep question, isn't it? I think that for me personally it's to continue to grow and make changes in myself to be a better person. And my greatest purpose is to raise my son to be a loving,caring, human who cares about others and the world around him.

In literal terms, just be a single group of cells in a multi group of cells world.
The purpose I choose for myself in society: Write what I see, debate with what I see is wrong in society, and help as many people I can.

To discover, to educate, to never stop learning and passing on knowledge.
And, according to James Joyce who appeared in my car one morning after one of my friends gave me a funny brownie, to write. Closest thing to a divine revelation I've ever had.
