Another purpose for my existence aside from my family is to enjoy the beauty of life. To love and be love. To see the beauty of this world.

Actually when you sit and think about life, life is nothing but a time pass. When you are a child you spend on sports and study. When you are in your youth you are after your love, marriage and you also produce children. When the family is growing you are after earning money for them. if its a country like India again you have to marry the children and see they are settled in their life. By the time all these busy schedule is over you reach the evening of your life.Now you become old and all relatives and friends gradually keep away from you and you become a lone traveler in the life of desert. And this is the time you turns towards some one who may save you from all this repetition again again.And that savior is the so called GOD. Therefore life is nothing but reaching back to pavilion from where you come out. Thats why our Indian scriptures say that though you are in this world doing all the worldly things always be in the GOD. one should lead a life like a water drop on a lotus leaf. The water drop keeps rolling on the surface of the leaf yet it doesn't absorb on the lotus leaf. That is life and one has to cultivate from the beginning.

Yes, you are absolutely correct. Family is always the primary reason to continue life. For me, my life is my family.

We can never say that a person can live for one purpose only. Life is like a mission, where we have to accomplish multiple things and in the end we hope for the best. Family, food, health, wealth, in and out is all a part of it. The best purpose to live is to live like you have to achieve something. Search about everything you feel like missing in your life, to live within the available means is the best purpose so far I can see.

If you are a grown up man you will be in a position to design your life and by noiw you might have understood the purpose of life. It differs from person to person - In this path some may be success full and some may fail. Again here the law of karma functions.Hence be careful what ever you perform. Always have a positive approach and everything goes positive.
