live, love, give to others...which when you give from a selfless heart...I believe you get rewarded...and find happiness and peace...
I believe the reason so many churches are in trouble...is because they have gotten away from their purpose of giving to the community...to the poor, hungry, widows and orphans and have become political...therefore, they are struggling, losing members...and their members are wandering around lost and unfulfilled...because they are not learning about God at church, they are learning about judgement hate, and how to win political battles.

The purpose of life is what you chose to make it. Some of the most rewarding purposes seek to make life better for others, both here & the ones that will be here in the future. To really appreciate anything one must must have experienced the opposite emotion. To really know happiness, one must have experienced sadness. The same goes for things like wealth & love.
I suspect our purpose is to get off this rock & populate the Universe, leaving the Earth to the meek.

The purpose of life, as ironic as it may sound, is to find a purpose and a meaning to it, one that could fulfill you in a good way. And that is different for each an everyone of us, so is not a questions you should ask to someone else, but a question that you should ask to yourself.
For me, the purpose of life is to learn. Knowledge. Love. Share the good things, and overcome the bad things.

Your happiness with your life is what you chose to make with it.
The purpose of life is to make more life. Sorry if that is not deep or meaningful enough, but that is the way the universe is.
What do you think you need to do to achieve true happiness and peace in your life? Now go and do it.

The purpose of life is... To Create... the purpose of life.
Happiness is nothing more than a simple choice... When life comes at you from all angles, and you don't know what to do, just remember this question...
Will I feel better if I choose to be happy right now, or if I choose not to be?
I think we all know the answer... Peace and Love to you!

Well, I believe that we are all hear for a reason. To figure you out why you are here, you must first figure out who put you here, which I believe is God. If you believe God put you here, you should seek His truth, which will guide you to your purpose. I believe I am here to first and foremost serve God, and then to be a good wife, to be a good contributor to my society and when the time comes to be a good mother.

The purpose of life is to find the purpose of life

Understand life, how it works and that it isn't meant to be fair. Find someone to love, pursue your interests, and make the world a better place.

it is not the first half of what u posted even though a lot of ppl seem to think so
Life is a test, our purpose is to worship God. We will one day be judged...and then our eternal life will begin or continue depending on how u look at it (I don't want to get into semantics)
