Share! Life Purpose.

[smilezz]

I Was Thinking Lately.. What would my purpose in life be? So I Came Here To Ask You Guys.. Have you figured your life purpose yet? If yes what is it? If no what do you think it would be?

WITH LOVE

Do you think people do have a specific purpose in life? I often wonder whether every individual has a role to play and then think can 7 billion people all hae a specific role other than to procreate and keep the population going. I do tink that certain people have key skills to keep it all moving forward and others seem to be hell bent on distaction and perhaps that is all about life balance. I'm not a religious person andperhaps that masks my views of it all, because those who do beleive seem to think that their religion maps out life.

My goal since I was three years old, was to determine if people had thoughts. I did not know what that was in my mind. Did not know what these ideas running through my mind was but I would watch people who were thinking and it always seemed they only thought when they were speaking. Of course, now I know what thoughts mean. It still seems that people are not putting their thoughts to use unless they are angry.

Still do that today I watch for clarity of thinking and have my entire life. Sometimes I gain insights but work hard in my passion to help others to put their ideas together to help them, their family and their society to rise above our fears, preventing us from rising above the harshness of the world and soar.

I like these forums as it gives people a place to speak those thoughts as I think that is the answer. I wish I had read more fiction throughout life as I think that would have helped me more to function in this world and trying to catch up but only in my texts and hope to add more fiction in my winter months to remain grounded, but worry it might cause me too much fantasy, but hope a combination of the two will help me though these tough months as I think we all are between two worlds and need guidance on how to navigate.

I have to say I can't answer that question. When you are as depressed as I am, there is no purpose in life. Some people say "life is beautiful". I just cannot see the beauty. All I see in the world is a lot of suffering...

I feel the exact same way

Don’t know if my life is fulfilling this, but I have always wanted to live with the purpose of being a pleasant person. There is so much unpleasantness in life and much of it is caused by people being thoughtless, rude, and judgmental. So I wanted to make life a little better by being thoughtful, pleasant, enjoyable.

Someone was asked what inscription he wanted on his tombstone. He said, “I would like them to write about me, ‘He did very little harm.’”
