What is the purpose for mankind?? I mean... we're here on earth, but what are we supposed to do??
Why is it the good people who have such terrible things happen to them...?
In the words of Thomas Paine,
"If man was to be created equally, why do poor men liveon the streets while others live like kings?"

This is a difficult question.
I believe that there is God who is my creator. Just a wristwatch has been made for purpose, so I am also made for a purpose. Each of us have our own journey and paths but I believe that our general purpose is to first love God and then to love others.
We all have different amount of material things, but material things do not always imply blessings. We know of rich people who are miserable and poor people who are happy. I think the important thing is whether they have a correct purpose in life.
