I always think about this question, especially when I am going through the toughest times in my life. I am christian so what I've been told is that we are here to worship God but sometimes I ask myself some questions. What do you think about this topic?

we are here because God loves us and wants us to enjoy the freedom called life. There are rules to follow to live a happy life and its kinda bumpy following it. Especially that temptations and evil come hand in hand. But the best thing is, God is always there watching over us, always listens, always forgives, waiting for us to submit ourselves to him. He is the way, the truth, the life... To enjoy the best of our freedom completely without regrets but genuine happiness is to know him and follow him but most of us disobey, there aare consequences that goes with it, and that is why we suffer but God is merciful and forgiving,he always give chances. Thats how big his heart is. The more we commit sins, we hurt ourselves. So it is still our freedom to choose to be hurt or choose to follow him and walk a blessed happy life with him.

There are entire books of wisdom trying to answer this question. Together with other questions like who am I, where do I come from, etc they represent the basic questions of spirituality. To start questioning why are we here it seems it is presumed that we are already here. Which is not very easy to demonstrate, even if it looks like. So I guess, we should first focus on this question first: ARE WE HERE?

life is of living.. just think that you are born to live not live becaz you are born....and life is full of challenges but make sure that happyness is not one among that.. what ever situation may be, there is a path which will lead to a good and happy living. today you are in trouble but tomaro you will be more storng to face new challenges. so always keep smiling and think positive
