Nolan that question cannot be answered. (try to think about it, and you wont be able to answer it) But God did all put us on earth for one reason. And that is to live as human beings. The future is unpredictable, therefore we should all try to make the best decisions we can and live life to the fullest.

The question itself requires God.
“Unless you assume a God, the question of life’s purpose is meaningless.” –Bertrand Russell
Russell was a famous 20th century mathematician, philosopher and Nobel laureate. He was also an atheist but honest enough to know that there is no purpose without God.
Most people are answering a different question, i.e. what are some things to do that will make us feel good?
If God exists, then I think He must have put our great need for purpose into our human nature to point us to seek Him. So seeking our Creator is our purpose.

The biological purpose of life is to make more life. But humans have the ability to choose their own purpose; Carl Sagan said: If you want your life to have significance, do something significant.

I do not know the meaning of life, but I do know the purpose of life, which is to create more gametes.

42. [Hitchhikers guide to the galxy]
In the beginnig God put us on this planet to look after his creation. Man did we stuff up! Thank God (literally) that he is a forgiving God.
Many beleive that since then we have developed a different purpose.
The bible says, more or less, that before he returns everyone will be converted. Maybe christians should devote ourselves to this.
There's my two cents anyway.
Happy Questioning

ive figured out the menaing of my life
it was always betweenm a few choices but now ive figures it out
the menaing of life is something very simple yet so complex
the menaing of life is to enjoy what you have and work for what you desreve , to cherish the the things around you but never think you dont desrve it , to always stay ontop of the world even when its crashing down into millions of peices. The meaning of life is to bring happiness to those around you at no cost , make them as happy as you want to be and even if you never have one single ounce of happiness in your life youll die knowing you changed someones life to the better. The meaning of life also includes being true to ones self , do what you need to to know youve done right , do what you must to make it but never do anything you may regret for teh rest of your life , have no regerts and live freely but cauitiously.
yes no one jack!!!!!!!!!! i wrote it myself!!!!!!
