You have one purpose and that is to get reunited with God/Truth. When that happens then the life you live will be unfolding in front of you step by step and your eternity will begin. Once you have attained the imortal state of mind then your purpose is fullfilled and your purpose becomes to be a vessel for truth to reach others. In this state of mind called the mind of Christ you will live forever in a walk with the creator and realize that all things are continually brand new.

I ask this same question once in a meditation. The answer came clear as a bell.
It said I have placed you here to learn the true meaning of Love. What ever it was that was answering then told me something that really set me back. It said that I felt the way I did about certain people because I did not understand the true meaning of love. I protested and said that I did my best to love all of the people who were deserving of love.
It replied "yes that is your misunderstanding. You see love as something that you dole out in tiny little portions here and there to people who you have judged to be worthy of it. This is not love at all, it is only judgment". This stopped me dead in my tracks. I suddenly realized that what it was saying to me was true. This realization brought me to tears. It went
on and told me, "You treat love as though there is some shortage of it. It is not something that you can run out of. The more love that you give, the more love that there is in the world. Its that simple. The only way that there can be a shortage of it is if you hoard it and keep it to yourself."
It went on to explain, that "this is what Jesus was trying to tell you when he asked you to turn the other cheek, to judge not and to love your neighbor. He made no exceptions in these things that he requested of you. Why are you making exceptions, and judging some as worthy of love and others as not? Jesus fully intended for you to apply this love that you are to all, in a universal manner without any judgment of any sort". By this time the tears Were flowing freely. I was crying because for the first time in my life I Understood what the message Jesus left for us in the bible actually meant.
This has become my truth. I can't say what yours is for sure, but I have a feeling that it is probably similar.
Love and blessings

There is no absolute statement to cover the meaning of life. One sentence of definition could never/ever cover the peoples in the entire universe. Humans should focus on their purpose in life while they are here.

The only meaning life has is the meaning you give to it.

The meaning of life...well, to those who are dead and do not walk with Christ Jesus, is to find him so that you can actually claim to have a life . Once you are alive the meaning of life is to submit to the will of The Almighty and have faith in Him. Once you do that You will have life abundantly.

It is different for every person and in every stage of their lives. When you find love, you've found meaning. Love takes many forms, a boyfriend/girlfriend, a spouse, a child, God. Consider all of it. You could find meaning in religion. Read more - here's a best seller for you:

The meaning of life is to live life to the fullest. To be good, to increase your morality by sacrificing, suffering, yet to have fun, and achieve.

That's a very broad question.
Perhaps you mean the purpose of life in general or your life. Grow, discover, imagine, explore, love and you will never be without purpose.
