A sculptor chips away at rock to show the image hidden beneath. As such, humans are trying to rid themselves of false ego, attachment to sense gratification and fear. Human bodies may become manifest, develope and then die, but the human soul is eternal. As such, many lives are lived by every soul until one's true self has full control over the body. Along with that, one must rediscover a love of God and an exceptance of all good and bad happenings with equal grace. Only then can a soul be elevated to the spritual realm, to exist eternally.

there is a life streaching from 1 to 75 where you live. live in song and dance and laughter. if you are hindu or buddist u will believe that you shed this body and take on another. death of the body is natural what is supernatural is that the spirit/soul never dies. enjoy it as it lasts and understand life/death better.

We are living in the world because that's the only place we can live.
Living is something we do between being born and dying. One can just sit around and wait for death, or choose to live an interesting, productive life.
Which do you prefer?

I like to have fun sometimes, don't you?
If I'm riding a motorcycle, playing a fun game, or spending "quality time" with a hot chick, that absolutely balances out everything else I have to do to stick around for that.
Just because it ends one day doesn't mean we shouldn't do it any more than you should not eat ice cream because eventually you'll finish the cone.

This is probably a rehash, but the purpose of your life is to help make a better afterlife, which is a long theological concept, but look up Eutopia and that will will be a good start to help explain what I mean.

To learn and appreciate.
This points out evidence of an afterlife, to learn and grow and aim for the reward of a good afterlife.

Well, a secular answer is that there is no good reason except that biological life likes to reproduce.

Isn't one day of life better than never having experienced it at all?
