To be there for my family... thats what drives me to wake up in the morning.
My purpose in life is to try to make the most of it, by any way possible. And to enjoy doing it too, otherwise, it will be too mundane and boring.

Purpose can mean two very different things. To many people it simply means what makes them happy as if they were put on earth in order to be happy.
But purpose of life really requires God.
“Unless you assume a God, the question of life’s purpose is meaningless.” –Bertrand Russell
Russell was a 20th century mathematician, philosopher and Nobel Laureate. He was also an atheist but he understood that without God we have no purpose on earth.
If we reject God, we wake up each morning thinking of ways to make ourselves feel good. Look at answer #1 to see how shallow that is.
If we accept that God might exist, we immediately can come to the conclusion that He must have put our great need for purpose into our human nature to point us to seek Him. Therefore, our purpose is to seek our Creator.
The Christian idea is that we seek God by trying to obey His command to love our neighbor for where love is, there God is also. We experience God through our relationship with our neighbors.

curiousity! The whole oroces of life - What is going to happen and what am I going to learn and how can I make it fun for me.
I also want to change myself quite a lot and my world if at all possible and at least keep busy and creative.
I like feeling and thinking and I love reading stories and watching film stories and trying to understand human relationships.
