I am sure you have read or heard of this question before. It's kinda common knowing that purpose driven life has this question in its frontpage.
Now let me ask you (you don't need to have read the book), what on earth are you really here for? Who do you live for? Why do you work? why do you tire? WHo, What and Why.

what on earth are you really here for?
- I was born to be alive like this. So i live to live.
Who do you live for?
- I want to live with people I cherish like my family and friends, and lovers.
Why do you work?
- I am still at university. but I would like to work to pay off the debts of the loan I got and support my mom. On another hand, working would be nice to kill time instead of doing nothing.
why do you tire?
- Because i want to make my dream come true. I think everyone must have a goal in life. Some people here might be to be with God. Others might be for their loved ones. alot of opinions from differnt places and different minds.

When I said "like this" it's referring to myself at the moment such as breathing, walking around, etc... Maybe i didn't choose the right term. I consider myself as a normal person. It's like asking me why am I male or female. It just hapenned that I was born to be a girl and live on with my life. My life is like a wind hat accepts everything that comes around. The wind still continue to move on ahead.

Hey goodluck with the paying of the debts!
I'm one of those people here who is living for God while you are one of those who are living for their loved ones.
When you said You were born to be alive "like this". what do you mean? what are you like?

I'm here to do God's will. My life revolves around that. That is what makes me the happiest. What about you?

Hi mister2mike! I'm always happy to find other people that are traveling the same "narrow road" as I am. Of course, I'm trying to follow the road that Jesus traveled. That road led to having an intimate relationship with our Heavenly Father. No greater happiness can one find!
Psalm 1 (New International Version)
1 Blessed is the man
who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked
or stand in the way of sinners
or sit in the seat of mockers.
2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD,
and on his law he meditates day and night.
3 He is like a tree planted by streams of water,
which yields its fruit in season
and whose leaf does not wither.
Whatever he does prospers.
4 Not so the wicked!
They are like chaff
that the wind blows away.
5 Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,
nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.
6 For the LORD watches over the way of the righteous,
but the way of the wicked will perish.
