The orignal purpose was live and prosper,to multiply and fill the
earth with God fearing people who obeyed god and did his will.
That purpose has not changed,It is just taking longer than it should
have! because of a rebelious spirit son of God who wanted the
worship that rightly belongs to our heavenly father.(Gen.1:28)
Right after that rebellion Jehovah put into place a covenant for
mans salvation.Gen.3:14,15..It has been thousands of years
since that time.Man has tried every kind of rule that has ever been
concieved..the result?utter failure,time has proven that mankind
is incapable of ruling himself without God.(Jer.3:5)Also Jer.10:23.
"I well know,O Jehovah,that to earthling man his way does not
belong.It does not belong to man who is walking even to direct
his step.So now at last we are living in (the last days)2Tim.3:1-5
Now it is getting real close for the time for Gods (purposes)for
the earth and mankind to live in peace and harmony under Gods
heavenly Kingdom.With Jesus Christ as Gods King and ruler for
a thousand years.at that time the human population will be
brought back to perfection,and the earth will again be a paradise.
So you see Gods purposes have and always be fulfilled.

Lets go back to Adam for this answer. Adam the first human made was put on earth to take care of the Garden of Eden and to have fellowship with God. Adam sinned and lost those rights. So mans purpose on earth is to serve God and have fellowship with him.

Eccl 12:13 Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Reverence Yahweh, and keep his Laws (commandments): for this is the whole duty of man.
14 For Yahweh shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be righteous, or whether it be evil.

Our purpose on earth is to serve God and to be a witness to others of God's saving grace through the death and reserrection of his son Jesus Christ.

to gain as much wisdom and knowledge as possible and teach others what one has learned so that it won't be forgotten upon ones leaving this plane of existence so the world will be a little bit better for them having been here

Truth, gave you a good answer. Do you want the real answer or one that agrees with you? "God dwells within you as you". You are litterally the life of God,spirit, expressing a part of his vision of himself.

There isn't one. We're just here. If we choose to give ourselves a purpose, great, but we're not here for a reason.
