I don't believe there is some almighty, intrinsic "purpose of life". Everyone's life and path, goals and purpose are entirely up to them and the life they're handed. We don't always have control over what happens to us in our lives. I think things just are. No purpose, no meaning, no reason, just existence.

Existence without purpose is body without soul. i totally agree with you that we have no control on what happens in our life. But i wanna say that if we are part of the system than we surely have some commands to execute. Every one has a same ultimate purpose (mark the word ultimate).

I completely disagree. I don't believe people have an "ultimate purpose or that there is a "grand system" that everyone has a "job" for. What is just is, nothing more nothing less.

My main aim of life is to make it day by day. Just to wake up every morning and make it through the day as easy as possible.

The main aim of my life is to know and realize the true meaning of life in relation to divinity-the Almighty God.Life brings new events and experiences every day to tell us that everything in this world is short lived and illusive just like a bubble of water.The real purpose of life is to know one's true nature and existence and live a life of fulfillment and divine bliss. Thanks.

My life is not even close to being blissful. It is like bad dream. The only things that keep me going is my husband and kids. I just have to try to make it through each day.

For me, the ultimate purpose of life is to live the life of purpose.

The purpose of this life is to figure out your purpose, lol. We are here to learn, grow(spiritually), perfect and experience. Each person will have a purpose that is unique to them and only they can figure it out. I believe we are here to evolve spiritualy as a species in whole.

Just to get by and enjoy everyday, everthing that goes by is a challenge. I am not religious, but maybe god has a purpose for us and we all need to find it. Live and enjoy.
