I can't or it's still hard for me to tell what's really the purpose of my life, not until I would have a family or when I reach my older age.However,I believe God has more than one purposes of ones life,and to love is Im sure one of them.

Despite of bad stories of my life,I still am able to serve as an inspiration of some people's lives,as a friend,as a daughter,as a sister,as a relative and as a co-worker.I also help other people in any way I can.Those are some purposes of my life that I see ,for this moment.

Let me go further about learning my purpose here on Earth,in other words, what's my life's purpose.

First of all, I believe I am here to share my life with others. Sometimes I wake up and do not know what am I going to do especially when it's my off day.The only thing I know is that I am thankful for being alive and that anything I decide to do will affect my whole day, my life and others' as well.

My opinion on life is that, we are here to accomplish something we might not even know yet . We might change other people's lives by being in the right place at the right moment. For example, a couple of weeks ago I woke up late and I didn't know what to do or go since  Roy,my dog, wasn't there anymore to play with everytime I wake up.I called then my one friend and invited her for lunch somewhere else where we could spend sometime together. It's very timely that  when I went out,I saw a taxi coming over,but  I figured out it's a Kowloon side cab.I was waiting for another taxi ,at the same time, thinking I would just take the car but I realised again it would take me like 5 minutes to walk from the car park to the restaurant I was going.While waiting therefore, for another cab, I saw this lady crying with her baby. She came up to me and said she needed help. Her husband beated her again and she was running away with her baby . She needed my cell phone so I helped her and stayed with her until her brother came to pick her up . Her family didn't know she was escaping because it was not planned.But she was vey thankful because at that moment she was very scared to be alone. My point here is that, sometimes we don't know that we can help or affect others' lives by doing something, giving advice, etc etc . That day, I could have being pissed off because I was late for my lunch and got very hungry but I realized that I helped those people to  go on with their lives and how important my help was for them.

Ayway,my idea of life is having the goal of becoming a better person everyday by helping others , that you might not think they will help you but they will, learning new things, dreaming of anything you want to become because a person who doesn't dream doesn't have a goal in life to pursue. Also, if you find an opportunity to show love , don't miss it but grab it. To finish, I think my goal in life is to be happy and make others happy,to live it for the best, spend it to the fullest while at the same time offer and share it for the goodness of others.At least,  If I would die tomorrow I would not regret what I've done because I've always lived one day at a time.

Also,I fully believe that everything happens for a reason.

Others are not so lucky to be this aware and introspective, Krissy. I'm sure that whatever reason you are put on earth to do, you will discover this soon with your openness and willingness to help others.

Friends, especially good friends who know you inside out, oftentimes are affirmations of the things you need to do. They maybe your guideposts to life.

We should be always open to possibilities that we maybe required to help someone in need everyday, if only we arent too short sighted to see this.

Wise words...

Yes May, and it so sad and I can even be emotional to see people who take their lives for granted.

I like to think its to add balance between the good and the bad.I believe that disasters and calamities are happening coz the devil is working full time now and mortals are easily swayed from their faith to the "other" side. Meaning there is more bad than good on this planet these days.

No man is an island... so goes a famous cliche.

I believe my purpose in life is to make life a little easier and happier for all the people in my life (family, friends, coworkers, and everyone who's lives are connected to mine one way or the other).  And I believe such is also the purpose of the people around me too.

To believe that one can live alone without needing anyone is pure arrogance.

If in particular I would need to enumerate my purpose  that is to be a mother, a wife, a friend, a daughter, a worker, a learner, a teacher ...I couldn't expand the list any further...
