    My life has no purpose, other than what i put into it. Each day, i propose to myself to accomplish certain things. Sometimes i succeed, sometimes i don't. Still, i try to be considerate of others, not interfering w their purposes, if possible, or, sometimes helping them. But, i will do my best to keep others from using me for their purposes, unless it suits my own purposes.

    With all that aside, what are you doing now?

    Enjoying it

    I do have a purpose though - to raise my children to be healthy and successful - and to do what I can for others. Even little things can make someone else's life better.

    Purpose of life: To be born, enter the natural world, contribute to whatever evolution has in store for you, procreate(if you can), die, recycled back into the elements.

    Happiness is the purpose of life, period. Really, if you think about it, it should be self-evident.

    If anyone tells you something different, reply , "Well, if you don't think happiness is the purpose of life, then you must be

    suggesting some form of unhappiness as life's purpose".

    Try this argument with Witnesses. It frustrates them.

    Still somewhat in good standing from the Organization's poin of view. However, I've stopped a long time ago making my life revolve around the religion.

    When I have time and if I feel like it I make some of the meetings and fit in a couple of field service hours per month for now.

    I have a few friends outside of the organization, and get along beautifully with my co-workers.

    All things considered, I have a pretty good balance going. The problem is that the organization wants more and more. I keep them at bay 'til the right time to exit completely.

    I would answer with a song:

    Monty Python: Meaning Of Life

    Why are we here, what is life all about?
    Is God really real, or is there some doubt?
    Well tonight we're going to sort it all out,
    For tonight it's the Meaning of Life.

    What's the point of all these hoax?
    Is it the chicken and egg time, are we all just yolks?
    Or perhaps, we're just one of God's little jokes,
    Well ca c'est the Meaning of Life.

    Is life just a game where we make up the rules
    While we're searching for something to say
    Or are we just simple spiralling coils
    Of self-replicating DNA?

    What is life? What is our fate?
    Is there Heaven and Hell? Do we reincarnate?
    Is mankind evolving or is it too late?
    Well tonight here's the Meaning of Life.

    For millions this life is a sad vale of tears
    Sitting round with really nothing to say
    While scientists say we're just simply spiralling coils
    Of self-replicating DNA.

    So just why, why are we here?
    And just what, what, what, what do we fear?
    Well ce soir, for a change, it will all be made clear,
    For this is the Meaning of Life - c'est le sens de la vie -
    This is the Meaning of Life.
