Humans are social creatures by nature; they're always in need of friends and companions. Most of our lives depend on interaction with others.Strong individuals are the core of a strong community, something that we should always strive for. We all know that God the Most High has brought us to life in order to test us. Thus we are here for a relatively short period of time and that weshall meet God one Day, so we need to use our present life for what is best for us in the hereafter. Once we know our purpose and our goal in life, we should seek ways to achieve them so as to benefit our own selves.My lotters,your opinion please?

Each of us has a purpose in life.We meet people in every stage of our life but not all of them will be our friends. Some of them will be our friends today but later on, they will be our enemies or we may loose contact with them. As we age, there will be few of them who will stay as our friends forever. I am so happy that my friends since I was in daycare are my friends until now that I'm already a working professional.For almost 19 years, we maintained our friendship. We separated when we went to college for we enrolled in different schools. Despite of that, we still keep in touch with each other. i think, the secret for a long lasting friendship is to be true to your friends, understand each others uniqueness and behavior,and don't forget to keep in touch with each other always. So treasure your friends.

In our life, we can learn that we are also a social being. As you said, we interact with others, we live with others, and we succeed with the help of others. There is no man who can stand alone. That's the reason why when Adam was alone, he was not happy. We need others. Knowing the purpose why we are here is the top most situation where we can appreciate our existence. Knowing that we are here for a purpose will help us align ourselves, our dreams, our ambitions, and our cares to our purpose. Our purpose really is to glorify God, who created us and allowed us to be in this world. We give glory to God when we do His will in our lives, wherever we may be, and whatever we might be doing. Life is just a journey, like an eagle flying in the sky, knowing that his time will come when he can no more flip and flap those wings.

The purpose is so we can help one another. The most reclusive one would be a better person if he let even one person to have a chance to do any good deed for him, or if he let himself interact and give others the opportunity to have his help if needed. No human being is created in vain...

First of all, I believe we are all unique. I don't believe that God tests us but that we all have opportunities to learn and grow. Sometimes we learn what we learn... the hard way so it may seem like a test. Because we are all unique it's important that we learn what we can about ourselves. If there truly is a God I believe he would want us to be happy. That being said, I believe we all need to find ways to work or serve that contribute to our happiness while we strive to make the world a better place. When we discover that we will most likely discover our purpose.
