Your real purpose, as a mammal, is to be born, survive to adulthood, produce offspring, then die!
Because human beings are mammals with highly developed brains and the ability to make huge differences to their environment, they are able to create and destroy and to make the world a better or worse place for their descendants. If you want to see yourself as a purposive being, then leaving your small corner of the world a better place than you found it would be a good purpose to aim for!
The poet W H Auden once said that we are here to make life better for others, but as to what the others are here for, he didn't know!

Yes. I have the mission to resurrect a temple, do good to others, work hard and find nice moments to remember. I like people like you.

It's really good to hear that someone like you really knows what you're born to do. I hope I know what's mine, too. I've been thinking about this for the past few months but I still haven't come up with something.
