Or, what is it that you must be doing in your life?.
Are you living it?
It's a question one must ask at one point in one's life. Why were we born? What is our calling? Are you fulfilling the reason for your existence?
Asking because we must know our reason for being before we die.
The next question is - Are you ready to die?

No, I know why I am born for.I know my calling.But I dont have much resources to full-fill it.I am slowly gathering resources to complete my dream.I am not scare to die as I believe It just another beginning.
But I wish to complete my dream before I die.

I was born to discover who I really am and express myself to the best of my abilities. And yes, I am doing just that.

@Starmaiden I sparingly use the word amazing but I believe this is the appropriate time to do so. That is simply amazing! I am glad you discovered your inner self. None more wonderful.
May the roads rise up to meet you.

Am not yet ready to die; I still enjoy life and praying to God to bless me with longer life.

I'm not ready to die yet. I fulfilled my working life. Not I'm living my retired life. I would like to spend as much time with my husband as I can.

I did get to watch a story of a British couple boarded a plane, and for some reason, the husband turned pale on his seat. The flight attendants desperately tried to do the Heimlich Maneuver, to no avail. The pilot requested for a medical emergency.landing on another city. But before that, there was a surgeon on board and he spliced a little on the old man's neck so he would get the necessary oxygen. He lived.
When asked why he was still alive, he responded - to give my wife a smile each day. Wow.

Janice, sometimes, one has to change gears, slow down and stop by the layby, read the road signs.
Young people, when at the crossroads of life, hastens to take the wrong road. It is all right to stop and assess your situation,determine which direction you ought to go.
Don't hurry. Enjoy the journey. Most often, the road less taken brings one to green pastures.
Praying you find your corner of the sky.

I think I was born to serve my parents. Now that they're gone, I want to do more, something that is meaningful and I hope that someday, I can have my own resources to materialize my plan. I included that in my prayer that maybe, before I die I'll able to fulfill that.

Blessed are the parents whose children care for them. Blessed are the children who keeps the fourth commandment, for long life is for them. And a fruitful life at that, if we have to paint colors to our God's sacred instruction.
You will have your resources in time. To everything, there is a season. When your season turns lush, be ready.

That is a tough question to answer right now as there are just too many variables that flows through my mind. But I still doubt myself if that is really what He wants me to do for Him. There are just too many things I have in my mind that I think my purpose is but I think only one or maybe two would be okay. But right now, I live for my Family and the community I am serving.

I was born to tell stories. I have been telling stories and creating them since I was very little and I'm not ready to die because I want the world to be able to see my stories. I need to get a move on it.
