Im in my mid 20's and until now I still can't have a clear picture of my life's purpose. My teacher once told me that she felt pity for me for I live life without knowing what its purpose is. How about you?Do you know what's your purpose here?

For me I main purpose of man is to live a life that is pleasing to God. Because the main purpose why God created all things is for his own pleasure (please read the Bible in Revelation 4:11) "God created all things for his own pleasure". God main purpose why God created man is for his own pleasure but sometimes because of sin man lives a life that is not pleasing to God. Because of sin man forget and even they do not understand the real purpose of their existence. Romans 3:11 says that because of sin no understand and no seeks before God, and it is God made a way that man will be back to God. So for me the main purpose of our life to live a life that is pleasing to God, where ever we will be what ever we will be doing it must be pleasing to God.

The picture of the book you attached in your discussion is a very good book to read the purpose driven life.

Before, I thought my purpose was to be a paralegal, them I had a hard time finding jobs, so I had to work in the mortgage industry which was not fun. Now, I know my purpose is to be the best Mommy and Wife I can be. So, I strive to be just that.

I also experience the same problem as yours. I also do not know what I want to do in life. Maybe this the reason why I can't stay long in a certain company. After a year or a couple of months working in the company, I resigned and apply for another job. At my age, I already worked in almost 10 companies now and with different job descriptions. Well Lanshang, I just hope that we both can find our purpose very soon. Goodluck to both of us!..
