today morning i was thinking why are we here for? As we all have been blessed with human body there must be some important task for us by supreme power.i don't think we are here just for making money or for building home or for 9 to 5 job. There must be some solid reason we are here for.what do you think?

We are here to enjoy God's loving grace. To enjoy the gift of life that He gave us and to see how wonderful the world He created.

I guess we are here to help each other and praying to God. It is simple words, but i guess this can make your life complicated with happy sad, sour, or maybe sweet...

..hi.. I do believe we all have missions why we were sent here on earth.. We may not have the same religion or belief but we all look up to a Supreme God who created and who have planned everything ahead.. Being a believer of God, I do believe that God has His own reason why I am here right now.. Maybe, I was sent to experience the reality of life, to help others, and to experience how to be given help also.. for now, I knew that the definite purpose why god created me is to spread the gospel in any way I can.. I didn't come here on earth to eat, drink, and be merry.. Instead, I am here for a very important role just like the others.. I don't think that we are sent here just for nothing.. In one way or another, we have the responsibility to discover why we are here in the first place.. It is time that we realize and analyze the things that we've been doing in our lives.. this way, we could assess how we should live according to the Will of the Supreme Being..

Someone else brought this up in a discussion here on MyLot..Probably months ago. And I really liked their answer (I forgot who said it originally though, so unfortunately I can't give credit where credit is due..sorry to whoever's idea I'm stealing right now! lol!). They said that it was God's way of showing us free will, with all the people in the world - some who are on the "right track" and some who aren't..so much. I thought it was a really cool idea (of course they articulated it much more .. eloquently than I did, obviously), because I had never really thought about it. It just goes to show you how most everyone starts off with such great potential and it's interesting to see which paths they decide to take in life and where it leads them. I think life is definitely beyond making money or having an everyday job. I think it's more spiritual and internal than that, but I can't explain what it means. I don't think that life's about figuring out the "meaning of life" because it's a pointless thing if you ask me. I don't really think there IS a meaning to life, to be honest. Life is what you make of it. I don't think there's one lesson that we all are supposed to learn, one purpose that we're all supposed to fulfill. I think it's about .. choosing your path in life and going with it and seeing where it takes you.
