your purpose of life as a human

“Why are you asking such a difficult question?”
That was my dad’s response during a family dinner when my sister asked him what he thought the purpose of life was.
The purpose of life might seem like an overwhelming and difficult question (my dad wasn’t the only one without an answer). Most of us probably spend more time contemplating what series to watch next on Netflix than thinking about our reason for living.
But looking at the answers, it might not be so complicated after all. To be of service to others, to love unconditionally, to watch a Youtube video about boots and cats, to see through illusions, and to realize our full potential. It all comes down to one thing — feeling good.

Taking responsibility of your success.
Perhaps you’ve also asked yourself at one point or another what the point of it all is. Why are you here? What’s life really about? To get paychecks and pay bills?
Why study 15 years of our lives, work 80,000 hours, and then reproduce so the next generation can do it all over again if we don’t even know why we’re doing it?
There’s got to be a greater purpose, right?
To get some more clarity, the answers which i got to have from people who seem to know their life purpose. They were all asked the question, “In one sentence, what do you believe to be the purpose of life?” (Many gave a lot more than just one answer.)

1. The Dalai Lama : “The very purpose of life is to be happy.”
   From the very core of our being, we desire contentment. In my own limited experience I have found that the more we care for the happiness of others, the greater is our own sense of well-being.

2. Christie Marie Sheldon : “The only Soul-Filled purpose of life is to love and let what makes you soulfully happy guide you — it’ll all work out if that’s your guiding force.”

3. Parker Heuser: “The purpose of life is to discover your surroundings, discover yourself, take what you’ve learned, follow your heart and evolve spiritually.”
   (learn about the world, visit as many different countries as you can, take in lifetimes of knowledge by reading the work of brilliant minds), discover yourself (what do you love? What are you good at? What are your greatest passions? What makes you truly feel alive?), follow your heart (do all those things that make you feel happy, that lift your spirits, that give you butterflies, that make you feel light, as if you’re floating) and evolve spiritually (some call this enlightenment).

4. Barrie Davenport : “The purpose of life is to live mindfully and passionately in the present moment, to love unabashedly, to be a lifelong learner, to seek adventure and growth, and to spread kindness and peace along the way.”

5. Joshua Becker : “The purpose of life is to give it away in the service of others.”
   To show true love to others who are in need of love.
   To love. To truly love. To become one with love and then to radiate that love outwards… To love those who love you, and also those who don’t. Not necessary because they deserve it, but because love is the only thing we have to offer… To get to a place where, no matter where you look and no matter what you do, you can’t help but feel an overwhelming love towards that which you see and for the things you do.
   “THAT’S THE PURPOSE OF LIFE…
   “The way I see it, life is love and love is life, and the more love flows through our veins, the more joyful we become, the clearer our vision gets, and the easier it becomes to connect not only with our own heart and Soul, but also with the heart and Soul of every living being that inhabits the planet.
   “On the surface we might all look very different from one another but at the core level we are all the same. At the core level we are all ONE, connected with each other in a very deep and powerful way. At the core level we are essentially the same, all members of one human race.
   “There is no separation except the separation we created in our minds because of our attachment to fear, and if we allow love back into our hearts, becoming one with it and allowing ourselves to live our lives from that place, then we will recognize ourselves in the world around us and we will finally understand that we are in the world and the world is in us… We are ONE.”
   
   “Cultivating a close, warmhearted feeling for others automatically puts the mind at ease. It helps remove whatever fears or insecurities we may have and gives us the strength to cope with any obstacles we encounter.
   I hope you enjoy this reading as much as I did.
