Why are we on Earth for? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Warm & Fuzzy · 07-23-2006, 11:04 AM

What do you think is our purpose of living, if we're all going to die, anyway?

I think we all live to help each other out...

A very wise friend (former Social Worker) told me that. My thoughts about suicide has never been the same since. I think she saved my life, and made me a better person.

(Note: I'm not thinking about killing myself, I'm just wondering what your inputs are in regards to our exsistence).

Wow.... this could lead into a topic filled with personal beliefs that might clash with one another (depending on how people respond, etc). Let's see how this thread will turn out.

But anyway... I think we are all here to learn to survive and experience things in our lifetime: the good and the bad. In the process, we learn how to interact with other humans.

Hopefully, we'll all be mature, and it won't be a problem.....right?

We are here to live a good life and to serve God.

Here's a quote from the first Conversations With God book:

God: There is only one purpose for all of life, and that is for you and all that lives to experience fullest glory.

I also think we're here to have some fun. And to be nice. And to grow (when I say grow, I say spiritually.) Even those people that are not religious, I think they still grown spiritually. It's possible to be spiritual without being religious.

Yes, we are here to help others (each other).
Also to love and a desire to learn.

I believe we are here to learn life lessons (compassion,loyalty, friendship) and it is like school, we keep coming back till we get it right. I believe in "old souls" , people who have learned almost everything and graduate to a higher plane of existence.

That's so true.

tv star collector · 07-29-2006, 06:45 PM

Why are we on earth?

To learn
To love
To laugh
To live.

crystals · 07-29-2006, 09:51 PM

To observe and participate in this thing called life and draw conclusions of our experiences.

Yeah, I think Sharop pretty much summed up my feelings on this question. I think we're here to do some good in this world, and to have some fun while we're here, too. You never know how long you have, so I think you're expected to make the most of the time you have and enjoy it.

Wow, who knew I could be so deep? hehe
