Question

What do you think is your purpose in life? I sure havenrsquot figure mine out yet!?
Weve all gone through this phase in life, sometimes more often than others. But havent you ever asked yourself, quotWhy am I on this earthquot? What am I here for? Exactly just what is your purpose in life?

Answer

It depends on phases in life. When I was younger, it was to be a missionary. I dreamt of going to some faraway place and teach there. Then things got in the way. My life goals changed. I finally got married in my late twenties. In my thirties, I was like everyone else, fighting for financial security and getting ahead in my career. I am in my forties now. I am less interested in a career and more interested in doing things that count... and things that I love.... nurturing my kids, being a good teacher... I reckon that I have come one full cycle. Although I did not become a missionary, I still became a teacher... and a good one. Although I do not have great material wealth, I have the love and affection of family...Next stage? Dont know yet.... maybe continue being a useful person who can be a blessing to other peoples life?
