I worked with him on the farm. He was a good worker but his English was not great and he may have had carnal relations with Christ as another co worked said "Jesus f*cki*ng Christ" all the time.

Not sure why I was born. Why not someone else ? Why would this life have any purpose if there wasn’t a purpose by a creator ?

Why am I alive ? Why do I think ? Why is death the end of my lottery existence?

Must be a purpose for the universe and food and water to exist ?

What’s the purpose of the soul without a dying body ?

To serve as liaison to our alien overlords in 2027, maybe. Who knows

Thought about this a lot, and I guess ultimately I feel it's just to contribute to all the things the world has to offer by working, consuming, contributing, talking to people. I'm a blip of 7.8 billion people but if none of us bought things, gained knowledge, or even walked out of our house none of this would exist. We all play a part in some way

To have my enemies driven before me, and to hear the lamentations of their women.

Why do birds sing so gay?

Why have they been doing it since at least 1955?

I worked the corporate lifestyle like most people, hated it and struggled throughout that time with the question of my purpose in life. The corporate experience left me completely dissatisfied. It wasn't until I retired when I got involved in animal rescue, 12 years ago, which was something that interested me since I like animals. That interest eventually led me to unexpectedly go back to work but for an animal shelter which I would have never imagined I could do! It turned out to be the hardest, most emotional work I ever did and for the least amount of money I ever made in my life. But, despite all that, it was the most satisfying work I've ever done because I could see the positive outcome I made by saving thousands of animals through the work I did and animal transports I drove across the country. I finally retired again and now focus on specific animal rescue projects occassionally to help when needed. Follow your interests and passion. Maybe you'll find the answer early in life or later on like I did.

Everyone’s life purpose is Eudaimonia, or self actualization. To be doing the things you believe you are supposed to do, and temper or refrain from the things we know we shouldn’t do. The challenge today is your desire can easily be hijacked by forces that are not of mutual benefit.

Obviously, 'Life' does have purpose, or we wouldn't be contemplating/discussing it. The Neanderthals would have thrown in the towell. THE PURPOSE is...SURVIVAL. With prosperity (to each their own values version) as a kicker.

It's all about survival. And taking the Worldly version of 'being' (I.e., existing as a 'self') to the next level of surviving. Spiritual version is the only escape for that, as Worldly death is inevitable. Albeit the Transhumanists are hot on the trail to immortality and being 'God'.

Apparently, it was to raise my daughter to help her become the successful woman that she is. I'm good with that.

To give
To serve

One will find more contentment in this than anything a corporate job would offer.

Apparently it's to bust my arse so my bosses can vacation in Hawaii and Europe and the Bahamas.

I'm doing my part.
