Question

great answers my friends :)
thanks Gee, sandhya and sophieb

very good answers!

Answer 1

I am wondering why you capitalized "Creator" and "Life's." Are these typos or are you saying there is a hidden meaning in your question?

I suspect the latter, after reading some of your other questions.

If you are saying that A mission in life is to be creative and do the best you can at anything, then I would say "yes" to your question.

But I don't think it's the ONLY thing to life. We all have our "missions" be it career, family, education, or asking unusual questions,

I lean toward atheism, so I don't feel that a great "Creator" is in the sky some where. I must create my own missions in life. I must be useful, productive, and be a benefit to those around me who depend on me.

I think most of us can justify existence by being compassionate, caring, and open-minded when it comes to our fellow human beings. I do these things naturally because (partially) I worked as an RN for 25 years. One quickly learns compassion and caring when choosing a career like that.

Open-mindedness is something that has to be worked on. I consider that concept to be one of the most important missions in life. Just think if we all were actually tolerant of the religion, race, or politics of every one else. Can you imagine how much less war there would be?

Unfortunately,not every one thinks that way. Those are the people struggling and fighting in the name of a religion, or politics, and are completely closed minded.

A shame. They don't know what they are missing.

Answer 2

According to the dictionary there is only one "Creator" (with the capital C and that's God). Creator with the small "c" would be someone who makes things or initiates them.

I don't know that creating is for everyone; some people are right brained, some left brained. I've always been an initiator, and even things I suggested many years ago (sometimes got laughed at) are now on the net and people aren't laughing. I wasn't the wealthy person who could pay for trademarks though. But maybe I'm practicing my creating skills for my next life in which I will excell (I'm joking, of course, about the next life...but who knows?).

Answer 3

Michelangelo said of his sculptures:

“Every block of stone has a statue inside it, and it is the task of the sculptor to discover it”.

I share this philosophy, and a birthday, with this very wise man. Science tells us that matter and energy cannot be destroyed. They only change states. So what is the concept of creation?

Thought is the Creator, and Life is the architect. Thought is the one aspect of existence that has the quality of being totally contrary to science. I believe that is where creativity is born. Life makes it possible to tap in to that mysterious well of creation and bring a unique thought into existence.

Creation of life, creation of thought, creation of wisdom. These are the great missions of mankind.

Answer 4

One of Life's great mission's'?

Wikipedia says: A mission, from the Latin missum (English: sent), is a specific task, often religious, which a person or group has been charged with or adopts as their main purpose.

So you are saying that there is more than one mission in Life? And that the greatest is to be a creator/one who creates. That we are charged with a specific task of creating or that our main purpose is to create?

Interesting.

I think that we create our own reality in which is our own Life. Thus, it is not a task or a main purpose. It just is, as long as we have Life. Do with it as you will. Choice is our task really.

Answer 5

I think so.

Any one can destroy, but it takes more to create. I've seen on the news were kids go out and spray paint all over the neighborhood, what had they accomplished, at the most, an hour of fun at the expense of everyone else. But take a father who goes to work, pays the bills, loves his wife, and spends time with his son and/or daughter. He created a created a child with goodness in their heart.

Answer 6

yes its one of them, but life has many meanings and "missions" its impossible to know what they mean exactly or what the correct way to be a creator is.
i say just live life the way it gets thrown at you you cant choose your path because you cant see whats coming

Answer 7

... a Creator of something positive to improve someones life. Absolutely, I agree with you.

Answer 8

Oh yes, to create yourself and re-create yourself many times in this life till we get to that place we are suppose to be.

Answer 9

I would say we don't all need to be creators or inventors to have a purpose. To be a contributor, now that's important.......

Answer 10

Not for everyone.
everyone has their own great mission.
Some people are creators instinctively, others are about 'n about for other purposes.
