....from the time we were born into this world, we were given a task.. a task to find our reason of living...everything that happened in our life has its own reason, that includes every decision and choices we made...it is our responsibility to look for the reason why we even existed...I myself is still searching for that reason...:), how about you, did you find your reason of living???

Hi. We, in sometime of our life have ask this question, in my case, when i was in school, i said that this reason could be enjoy life, friends, etc., when i was in the university, i think that this reason could be, leave a legacy or be known for something important you did. But now in this stage of my life, i think that old those thing from school is connected, because now i think that my reason is to enjoy the life, leave a legacy, teach, share all the things you can, but with someone important a those are my wife and kids, those are my family, and that's the reason of my living. MY FAMILY.

For each and every individual in this earth, we definitely have a reason for living. My reason for living is simple and clear, to do what God has planned for me. Once we know what He has in store for us then we can say we know the reason to what we are living for. Put your trust in Him then everything will be clear to you on to what you are here for.

I believe that life is worth living. And that's the only reason to keep living. And I enjoy it.

I would say that part of my reason for living is my children. I remember a time when I couldn't have kids. I tried for years but when I wasn't able to get pregnant it hit me hard. I thought there was no reason to live without having someone there to live for. Well I found my reason to live when I became saved that God had a purpose for me in this life and I just had to find out. Later on my kids came along which gave me the biggest reason.

..it's good to hear that you have found your reason of living...as for me, I am still searching for it..or perhaps I found it already but had overlooked it..I have read a story about a fallen angel, ordered by God to take the life of a single parent mom ( her time in this world is over ) with a kid not more than a year old..the mother ask the angel if he can stay a little more with her kid until he will be able to stand on his own..the angel felt sympathy to the mother and was hesitant to do the task, so he went back to God and told him about the situation, because of this God was disappointed and ordered him for the second time to take the mother's life and punished him by turning him into a human and will not be able to return back as an angel until he learn the lesson that God wants him to know..to make the story short..after few years of becoming a human, the angel met the Kid who is now 5 yrs old with a new parents...with this, he learned the lesson...that everything has its own reason...and every person has its own purpose...

Life is very beautiful. So we must live to enjoy it; we must live to know how my children grow up; we must live to know where is the world's development; we must live to love everyone near us; we must live to know that we're happy much more other people etc...Enjoy your life at present.

I have many reasons for living........ One of them is because of my family whom I dearly love. My family makes me complete as a person and makes me happy too.

Precisely,we exist with reason,and we need to know that reason. One reason why exist is,my kids and my family. And what gives me complete reason is,my GOD. I live to worship and give thanks to the God that i believed in the heavenly FATHER. And,also i lived for other people to lived also. Those people whom i met unexpected and become a part of my life. Happy weekend

I haven't and I don't put too much weight on "it". I think it's more on focusing and just trying to be happy on your way to finding your reason, rather than actually finding it. I may be a fool but I'd at least be a happy fool. Welcome to myLot I'm sure you'll enjoy it here! Have a nice day and ++ to you!
