Some people believe they have many purposes in life , while others believe they have one Big purpose. A few of my friends and I had a conversation about this today. I feel my life is made up of many different purposes. It is dynamic and my purpose in one persons life may not be the same in another persons life. What are your thoughts?

I think if you only had one purpose it would make you pretty one dimensional. I do think you have a different purpose in each situation.

Great word for it. Yes I agree I hate to think the universe is waiting for me to do an act of kindness 10 years from now and then take me out (because that was my purpose lol

Do we really have a purpose? Maybe people that have kids might have a purpose to raise those children and help advance society. But to those that don't have children, maybe there is no actual purpose at all. But I think it all comes down to an individual thing.

@CRanney It really is an individual thing. Celebrities, well, they is just their career. Not their purpose. In my opinion, everyone is a celebrity in their own right. Just because someone is famous does not mean they are better then people who are not famous. We are actually all special. As for purpose, like I said, we have different ideals what we consider a purpose.

@inertia4 I think so too really. I will for example never have a purpose like celebrities do. I think it pretty much is an individual thing.

As a Christian I believe I have only one main purpose and that is to glorify God in my life.

I think that all along our lives we have multiple purposes.

I think maybe I missed my purpose in life I've never given much thought to it.

@JudyEv I've felt like that a time or two. But I am sure we havent. You made me smile today and that is a purpose that I thank you for
