My boss raised the question this morning at the office, each of my colleagues has their own say. What about you what's your say about it? Are you living just to earn money for your family? to accomplish a mission on earth? or we just live and die just that.

Although we may often feel that we are living just to earn money for our family, I would certainly hope that each of us has a greater purpose in life. I feel that I was put here to make a difference in the lives of many and work to accomplish this by volunteering or a regular basis. I also feel that I am here to educate my children. I lead by example and help them learn in thier studies.

Its a good question, but not hard to answer. See it all depends on the level of ambition and what is important for you in your life. What drives you to feel alive. For me its my accomplishments which serve me as rewards and its my soul mate who I live for. I want us to have a good life and for her to be ok after I am gone, so that is my joy in life.

We live for the one we love. Hence, I live for the one I love... without them, there is no reason for me to continue living... God created his children to love each other...

i guess thats what we are here, to live and to die and so in order to live we must of course work to earn for our daily need if not then we might die specially if no one help us. as for me, i work for myself as i have my needs pay my expenses and etc. then in order to appreciate life we must also be happy like go to a vacation, go to a party to have fun and etc. i dont really know what my mission in life. but as of now maybe mine is to be a good mother so i can look after my kids so they will grow up as a good person i just hope so. it might help to lessen those bad people on earth.

I live for my family and say to earn money. But for all this thing in our life it's worth living for the service of all who need our help. Either love ones , family, friends or whoever concern with us. Also love in the service of God is my goal where I am involved as of these days. I am happy serving my family , our community and our church.We cannot live by bread alone but by words coming from God who can help us.As the Bible says Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and all these things will be added unto you. I put God first before me and He will do the rest.Believe me.
