what do you think we were put on earth for?
Who created us and when, how?

"Dum Vivamus Vivamus!"
(As we live, let us Live!)
Live, laugh, love...all else is the scenery on the roadsides of your life. Stop and look, learn, interact, and grow. But while you are on your journey be careful to have as much fun as you can. Retain that awesome sense of wonder you had as a young child, for it will serve you well later on. Refuse to grow up, for to grow up is to open the door to growing old. You may age, yes, and that is good, for with age comes wisdom, but, for heaven's sake, do not get OLD! Age with dignity and grace.
This is, as I see it, what God, our Father, intended. The words above are a very simple plan, and when followed, we can grow as individuals and as a group. If we follow this simple plan, we will be happy and helpful and eager to promote peace and harmony worldwide.
But it is a challenge, too, which is plain to see as we watch the news on TV or read the latest edition of the newspaper. Some simply can not, or will not, enjoy their journey, and take a more difficult road than they need.
A wasted day is one in which you did not laugh, did not learn something new, or did not love.
How is your day going so far?
Peace!

'put on earth for'? Ah, you're asking two questions -- What is our purpose AND what is our meaning.
Since we are not created and not put here, we are purposeless. There is no purpose to life. However, we can fill our lives with whatever meaning we wish.
For example, I go to the store and buy a bag of water balloons. Their purpose, the reason they are designed, is to hold water and be thrown and then pop when they hit something. They are a water delivery system. But just sitting on a shelf, they're meaningless. I buy a bag, go home and fill one, because I want to tag my mom with one as a joke at the family picnic -- I've now given it a meaning, one of joviality and playfulness.
Since we are not created, and there is no creator, we cannot possibly have a purpose. We are here strictly as a consequence of naturalistic processes.
However, despite our purposeless origins, we ARE here, and we ARE self-aware and we ARE conscious, so we may choose whatever meaning suits us best, be it religion, knowledge, service to others, pursuit of money, intentional cruelty, or something else.

1) The meaning of life is to be a good human being.
2) Originally looks like we were put on Earth to mine gold.
3) A Nibiruan called Ea (then become Enki), created our 'species' in a lab through a DNA manipulation.
Source: circa 3000 years ago Sumerian Tablets written by a Master scribe from Eridu, called Endubsar who wrote down the very words of Ea.

We were put on the earth because it had been emptied. The purpose of life is to tend this planet. The reason we exist is to take care of earth and move on.
The meaning of life is to love, experience and learn.

Life has no meaning or reason it is simply life, we are born we grow old and we die, after that no one really knows what happens to us, it's just a speculative belief we all have that's all. As who created us well you can live a thousand life times and you will never get the answer you are looking for.

We have many choice on how we'll live our lives here on earth... but life after death only has 2 choices: a heaven and a hell.
Compared to eternity, our life on earth is like a vapor as we were made to last forever in eternity.
- therefore -
Life is a test, a task and a temporary assignment.

God created us in order to have a relationship with us just as a parent decides to have a child. He desires that special relationship with us. He has prepared an unimaginable eternity for us if only we will choose to be His children and love Him back.
