Do you ever do thinkting or asking your self about your purpose in this world? how did you know it and how did you feel that this is your purpose? Life is created for a purpose and its not an accident why we were here...

Maybe to be happy. To make happy the people i love and i care about. Thats a way of enjoying your life.

Hi champan, To be happy is also a goal. A purpose is our role in this world. We are not supposed to enjoy only in this world which is temporary. We have to know why we are made.. :) hope you'll know it someday :)

frankly speaking im also asking the same question too. i wonder why were here. like me, i always ask why if i can only do is to work and sleep and eat every day. i wanted to help to other people even my family but i can coz the money i earned is not even enough for me, i wanted to share my service to others or do some voluntary works but i cant coz im already tired from work as all i want is to sleep and have rest. and so my questions answered. now that i am regnant and soon to be a mom and since the father left me. i realize whats my purpose in life now. and that to be a good mother to my child, and let him grow as a good person who loves and believe in god and respect other people. i guess god just want us to have a good kids so when they grow up they will be a good rule model for others to follow so there will be no wars and make this world a peaceful place. though i know we cant control our child's mind but if we nurture them with love them im sure they will give out love too.

Hi homeshoppers, Im so glad that you find your purpose with your baby to be. Its a blessing for having him in your life because you learn why you are here. I hope that this will give you a fresh start in your life and fulfil your purpose with guidance from our Lord. :)

I definitely have thought about this. For me, I see life between good and evil, and having a set of challenges that I must face. These challenges are those that I have to go through to be successful in life, and giving up life is definitely not an option. To do good always and to be thankful to God is what I believe in most. And to do good to those around me, including my love ones. Hopefully, I'm always able to do good things and good deeds.

Life is the education of God's children. You are here to learn and grow. You will also teach others along the way.We learn through the parameters of our life and the people we meet. Interaction with those around you is important.If you get bored with nothing to do, THINK! How can you make this world a better place????You do know that this world is counting on you!!!

What is my purpose in this world? Or should I say, what is our purpose in this world? Our main purpose is to glorify God. Glorify Him, on the things we do? Either it's simple thing or complicated one. Glorify Him, because He made us on His own image?

Very good post! During times of silence I do think about these. Unfortunately, like the philosophers since time immemorial, the answer has been elusive. From time to time I would get these epiphanies but they do change along the way. How about you? have you found your purpose? Happy MyLotting!!
