What is our purpose in life?

The question "what is my purpose in life?" comes through one's mind quite a few times during one's lifetime.

Many believe that there is a destiny set by a higher power to all of us and they are also many that believe that there is no such a thing as destiny.

Being a human being, it is unavoidable to feel a want for some kind of meaning and purpose. The notion that there is no meaning or purpose would definitely make any human being devoid of something and would leave an empty space in our hearts.

I guess unless we as humans are all knowing, there can't be a definite and sure answer to the question "what is my purpose in life?" One can not say one's ideas about this puzzle is for sure right and the others is for sure wrong because we have yet to know a lot.

We can however go about trying to see this puzzle in a logical way and according to evidences we have and know till date.

According to all the evidences that we human beings have and gathered until now and seeing this puzzle from a point of view of an individual, we may not have been created or made to have or fulfill individualistic purposes. Meaning to say that we as individuals were not created for individualistic purpose and meaning that were preset for us by something else. This is actually according to the insights we have now and may change according to new logical evidences. Even though that may be the case we still are free to have and be devoted to any purpose we choose to have and follow. Also we are free to make any meaning of it all.

When looking at it in a different perspective and not in a perspective of an individual, we were created to fulfill life's/nature's purpose. Meaning to say that life wants to exist and ensure the extension of its existence in this realm now. Not only that, but life also wants to figure all out about this reality through us and for us according to our nature of existence. This is because life is actually us. We are the representatives.

The above notion is a direct result of the scientific evidences till date on the way life exists, reproduces, evolves and on the way how life or evolution reacts to individuals in need and species as a whole. It is also based on logic made by observing the evidences like on what we are as life and what life is itself.
