Question

What is the purpose of l?ife?

Answer 1

To be happy. Lets face it, our bodies, our minds, our planet, our galexy, our universe... None of it is permanent. So lets make the most of it while we've got it.

Define success. Ultimately, your definition of success is going to be the thing that will make you happy... or at least it should be. If being happy means having a high paying job in a field you enjoy, go for it. If it means having a "crummy" job that pays the bills and keeps you eating while you persue other things that make you happy... Go for it. If it means collecting knowledge and learning everything you can all through life, working some of the time and continuing college some of the time until you have an insane number of degrees and cirtifications and know more than you'd ever truly need to in this world. GO FOR IT! (I actually know someone who did this. He's got to be the happiest person I know!)

Just be happy. It's that simple.

Answer 2

To glorify our Creator and walk out the plan He has for our lives.  When we are truly doing that we will be filled with joy even if our circumstances are less than perfect.

Answer 3

To do Gods will.

Answer 4

Life is a gift.   Every one of us are so lucky to have received this wonderful gift.   What we do with this gift is up to us.   We can rise to new horizons,  or we can waste it.   We can help others or we can be self-centered.   We were also given the gift of reason which places us above the animals.   We are given the gift of speach.   We can Love one another,  ( If we so choose to ).   Each one of us is responsable for how we use our gifts.   Some day we may have to give an account on how we used all our gifts.

Answer 5

Simply put the answer is to rejoice love.  For me I think our planet is the ‘Matrix’ for our spiritual energies.  Reality tests and demands growth of our love towards others and ourselves.  Sometime I think reality is overdoing it a bit, but I also think we allow it because of the rat-race most of us sheepishly follow.

And here is a far-out idea: according to Einstein, energy and matter is interchangeable (E=mc2) - this interchange happens every day and every second, but originated at the big bang.  Maybe love and energy is again interchangeable.  I would like to believe that everything (visible and non-visible) is made up love, energy and matter.

According to most religions God is love...

Answer 11
