Question: Do you feel like you're here for a reason!?
Do you think we are all put on this earth for a reason!.!.!? I know it sounds crazy, but, ever since I was a little kid, I always felt like I was meant to do something to help humanity or to make the world a better place!.!.but so far, I've let the insignificant things stand in the way!.
I don't know what my purpose is, but I KNOW I have something special to offer to this world!.!.I just haven't found it yet!.!.

Not really, it seems all is random, and really what it sounds like you are is optimistic, which is a good thing!. I assume you're very young, as when you get older, you realize that not much in life has a purpose, but ultimately you find something or someone that seems worthwhile to spend your time on or with!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

No, sorry, I'm here because all my ancestors, from 4!.5 billion years ago, happen to survive long enough to reproduce!. Then the sperm that was to become half of me beat millions of others to fertilize an egg!.
With all that luck, I find it hard to believe that there is any "purpose" as such!. I just live life as best as I can, treat people as I want to be treated, help charities because it is the right thing to do etc etc!.
When I die, I'll be buried, hopefully mourned for a while, and then everyone will get on with their lives!.
Simple really, and all without soul-searching for some purpose which probably does not exist!.

If you are here for a reason (a purpose in life), then there has to be a Creator!.

“Unless you assume a God, the question of life’s purpose is meaningless!.” –Bertrand Russell

If we were on a battlefield and didn't know what our orders were, what would we do!? Go to our commanding officer, of course, and ask!.

So if you want to find real purpose, then seek God!.

Otherwise, we're just pulling things from our imagination!.

Absolutely, God has a purpose for putting me here the same reason why He put you here!.!.!. that is to bring smile on HIS face by using the talents, the strength, even the weakness, and the desires He put in our heart (like yours: to help the mankind)!. Just stick being the good person you are right now and He will give you the desires of your heart!.

GOD BLESS!!! Www@QuestionHome@Com

we're all here for a reason, its good that u feel it cuz most of the humans just let the time slip away and they think time is a free and not as valuable as they consider it,
there is g-d and he's expecting us to keep these 7 commandments:
http://en!.wikipedia!.org/wiki/Seven_Laws_!.!.!.

just keep these simple things and you will have a great part after u pass out of here

You are not your job!. you are not how much money you have in your bank!.you are not the car you drive!.you are not the contents of your wallet!.
you are not your khakis!.you all singing,all dancing crap of the world!.


yes sometimes question answers another question!.
and the question remains unanswered!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

We could wonder why forever!. Probably until some alien tells us that we live to serve them!
Anyway we should make up our own mind on why we are here and what our purpose is!. Some people believe they were meant to do achieve certain things and some believe they are meant to just enjoy there life!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

That's a very good question!.
I also ponder this now and then myself!.
Perhaps because some of us can't do one huge event which will change the world, maybe we just do little things which change people around us and in our community!. I think thats usually a good way to start!.
But very good question that not many people ask themselves!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yes!. I believe so too!.

And my reason for being is to:

1!. Live!.
2!. Love!.
3!. Enjoy!.
4!. Touch lives!.
5!. Consume food!.
6!. Learn!.
7!. Teach!.
8!. And so many more!.!.

I know you've found your purpose, you just didn't notice it!. =)Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yes, I used to struggle with finding an answer!. Then I had my wonderful daughter (14 years ago) and I never wondered again!. I thought, what if it's as simple as I'm supposed to be her mother!. It is a peaceful feeling!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Thats up to everyone to find out!. I like to think that, but what is it that we are looking for!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

I have a purpose to be there for my family when ever they need me!. I believe many of us are lacking that purpose in this fast paced life!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

That's true for everyone!.!.!.till they get married, then they completely fuggetaboutit!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I too feel the same!. I use to feel this way even strongly when I was in my early teens!. Then I use to feel and think far more idealistically!. My feelings and my thoughts have gained a great deal of maturity now, but inside, I am still the same!. I still like to see the world as an endless beautiful place, and its people kind, friendly, refined, refined and all peaceful - this has been my utopia a long time since!.

There is one major difference now, I mean between now and then that now I am for clearer about what I have to offer to the world!. This is where I am!. But I know to make it work this is not where I want to remain!. I need to move forward!. I need to do more to do what I like to do!. I see that if I have managed this far with my dreams then its not without a certain amount of honestly and realism in my promises to myself!. I think I need stay honest, realistic and brave in my promises!. I also have to be as passionate and enthusiastic as I as while dreaming!. I need to figure out how can I deliver to the world what I have for the world!.

I too believe that the world, life and the universe is created out of a reason, for a purpose, that everything is a part of some meaningful grand design for some very good purpose divine!. Within this grand design we here but for a short while, and within this short while we have to fulfil the purpose of our life, to evolve to the fulfilment of our potential!.

I do not see any point wasting time now as in five hundred years science, the world, might discover some great facts about life, but for us who are alive now, it is here and now that matters!. We must learn to see beyond physically realities and science to fully appreciate the purpose of life!. I believe that human life is purposed for human soul, or essence!. The mind therefore is purposed to serve a higher purpose, until it is ready for higher levels of reality beyond death!. The purpose of the universe is to be an accessory in the purposeful processes of life!.

We could spend our life less ideally and more idly, but I believe that there is some vital and active purpose to life!. I believe we are all purposed to be purposeful in life, to seek the meanings of things, to see if we could include them or use them within our plans!. We can enhance our sense of purpose though gaining knowledge, by acts of prayer, and through active service to fellow human beings!.
