If you try to find definitive answers to those questions, you'll just drive yourself crazy, and it's not worth it.
Just do the things that make you happy and be with the people who make you happy. Don't sweat the small stuff. Look for beauty in everything. Be good to your body, mind, and soul.

It depends on how simple you perceive that question. Life may just be simple or as complex, it's always up to you. You control your own life, God just throws in some events to make it all the more interesting, or else it would be like maths with just +, -, * and /.
For my perspective, i'm here to do what I feel is neccessary. It may be to help others, or the inversion. We all do that at times. That's why there are happy moments and there are sad ones. Some say the meaning of a good ending in life is that you obtained what every human should obtain (a good living, a house, a family, a wife/husband etc.), but that's what other people think. To me, if you have done all you can for the world and you are happy with it, that considers a good ending.
Anyway, we are all too young to think about this. We are 20+ years old, my dear girl. Just chill and live life as we want it. :D If you don't stop thinking about it, gray hairs will start sprouting and you will then wondered, how was my teenage life like?

I've been across a good deal of desparate people over the net, and I hope you're not one of those. Despair however, is a natural component of human life; it shows us our vulnerabilities so we can get to enjoy our strengths...the right way.
I'm no priest; no pastor; I'm no rabbi; no sheikh; no guru either, but I can tell you this: God may have one general purpose for the existence of the human race, but he sure has a special purpose for the life of each and every one of us; we only have to find out what that purpose is, and you can't do that without returning to Him. I know I've found mine, and finding it sure doesn't mean lying back and watching the world go by. It is then when serious work begins, and that's what gives your life the meaning you're looking for.
These are not just words, my friend; life experiences have proved this theory over and over again. As for the general purpose behind God's creation of man, the probabilities can be infinite. In my humble view, most important of those can be the founding of a new Heavenly breed, worthy of His nature and presence; worthy of being called "His people"; the future inhabitants of His Kingdom who ultimately deserved it.
I say this because the messengers and messages that have related to Heaven have all (basically) called for moral refinement and piety towards the creator. The obvious reason for this is that we are the candidates for future sharing of Heaven with Him, and for being his deserving children, and no longer "servants".
God in this sense is more like a man founding his family, and with the exception of dying, God, like man, has to hand down an inheritance, and to do so, there has to be those who are worthy of that inheritance; don't you think?
Take my advice and don't torture yourself with this wonder; He hasn't brought you to this world to preoccupy you with such futile speculations. He has on the other hand told you what he wants from you; it is that which you should try to pursue and excel at.
This of course, if you believe that there's a creator who brought everything to being, and that He's God, who loves you and wants you to be His child. This notion is the exact anti-thought to all that results in despair, because it is the fountain of hope, and if you have it, you should at least realize some purpose for your life.
Good luck to you.

Pardon my English. I am not from an English speaking country
Why do we come to the world?
In the beginning there was nothing - Zero. After a while, "differences" and "sameness" arise within this zero. Differences caused zero to became -ve and +ve and it continued to split in to the opposite sides until it became -ve infinity and +ve infinity (we call it the universe). "sameness" is acting within this differences in the opposite direction. Needless to say, both differences and sameness have won many battles but the war is still on. The total sum of the universe remains the same zero!
We come to this world as a result of a trait of a subset (due to the action of sameness) in the differences. The main characteristic of this subset is to "replicate" and to "stay put". All living things from viruses to whales have this tendency to replicate and will fight for their lives using immune system to physical activity.
In order to achieve maximum efficiency in given circumstances (produced by the differences), various means were developed by this subset which had the trait to replicate and stay put. Human beings have one of the most advanced of these means. Hence we are armed with great information processing abilities, self enjoyment and other perks for living compared to lower life and so on.
As the subset adopts the fittest means for survival and reproduction, some members of the subset fall behind. Hence it is quite common that with the analytical and processing power provided to us as human beings, some members will probe in to the possibilities beyond the collective aim. You are doing that.
The purpose of staying alive and trying to reproduce more beings that will carry ones traits is the effort of "sameness" to control the actions of the "differences". This purpose was born at the same time when "differences" was born and tried to bring chaos.
This is not even confined to the living world. There are constant efforts to level the mountains in to plain lands and so on by geological process.
If don’t like it, try to invent a process by which you can convert everything in this universe in to energy (E=Mc2). The -ve and +ve charges will cancel out each other and the whole cycle of life, death, beings, changes, etc. will stop. - until differences start to appear in that nothingness again

If you can look back over your life, at any time and not just a the end of your life, and you know that you have been a good and loyal friend, a loving and accepting spouse, a committed parent with values and a moral compass, a devoted child of parents, I think that you can feel that you have accomplished a great deal.

Life is about living period. Living can sometime be sublime and sometimes seriously suck. But it is your journey to make of it as you choose.
We are born because we are a pernacious, adaptive and fecund species. The biological imperative is continuation of the species. At base we are born to breed, raise the next generation and die. Everything else is a bonus. When the journey is over, the light goes out and we fertilize the crops to feed our progeny.

Three passions have governed my life:
The longings for love, the search for knowledge,
And unbearable pity for the suffering of [humankind].
Love brings ecstasy and relieves loneliness.
In the union of love I have seen
In a mystic miniature the prefiguring vision
Of the heavens that saints and poets have imagined.
With equal passion I have sought knowledge.
I have wished to understand the hearts of [people].
I have wished to know why the stars shine.
Love and knowledge led upwards to the heavens,
But always pity brought me back to earth;
Cries of pain reverberated in my heart
Of children in famine, of victims tortured
And of old people left helpless.
I long to alleviate the evil, but I cannot,
And I too suffer.
This has been my life; I found it worth living.
Bertrand Russell

This is my point of view. I come to this world not by choice, but how i live my life is by choice. Life is all about me, myself,how i approach life, how i take my life and how i make my life? I will never know about life until i take it seriously, until i live it with totality. I always live my life with this" i can, i will and i must" Meaning that when i do something, i will tell myself, i can do it, i will do it, and i must do it.I still in the progress in doing better.A person share with me something,"dont count the day, until u give ur 100%" Everyday ,i can be better of myself, but not the best. In the end, i get the best of myself.

sometimes when one is trapped in the moment, everything becomes so one sided, and we cant really see the import of life, but we are all connected by our common bonds... as humans... mammals...vertibrates... animals...living things....but when you look at life as a whole.. it is easy....sex brought you into this world, and life is about sex, but sex is about change, because over time the genetic material mutates...living beings that do not have sex never change....so really life is all about changing and adapting... at the end of your life you get a chance...a chance hopefully to see what your life was really all about from a perspective that gives you the most wisdom to understand it
