The purpose of life is to create a purpose to life. If you don't feel your life has a purpose, you're right. If you feel your purpose is to love other people, you're right.
We are infinitely creative, even to the point of creating our purpose for creating.

Ok, I'm sure your tired of the round about answers, but you asked a hard question so its hard to talk straight about it.
I am happy to believe that life has no purpose. I am free to be appropriate to all types of situations because of this. You should be whatever you want to be, and if that changes, change what you do. Ultimately its better for you do act like you feel like acting. Remember, have fun in this meaningless world, what else could be a better thing to do.
PS. I know many people disagree, you should know that this philosophy while it sounds like hedonism, but truly, when you love some person for no better reason than you just feel you do you will gain more insight into the nature of humanity than all the reason in the world will give you.

CC Yes I Do Feel That Our Maker Has A Purpose For Us, To Help Those That Are In Need ,To Serve Just As He Came Not To Be Served, But To Serve,And To Do What Is Good In His Sight. It Might Not Be Easy; But We Should Ask Him To Help Us Do Just That. I Always Wanted To Be A Doctor, But I Do Feel That God Has Plans For Me And I Open My Heart To Them Now, I Feel That If Everyone Did What God Wanted' We Wouldn't Have Chaos;

Your life's purpose is to develop an immortal soul that will continue the journey to reach God. How you do it is your own business, but you won't go far hurting people or being greedy and selfish. Jesus's teachings are the best guidelines.

To make everyone I come in contact with have a better day. My purpose in life is to make sure I live it honestly and clean. Also, we are not put here for ourselves, we are put here for everyone else. So, the happier people are around me, the better everyone is. Thank you.

Lifes purpose is to continue life. It is the one constant. Reason is irrelevent.
