What is your purpose in life? And how come you say it is so?

high tide or low tide?
either to inspire others or make people feel miserable in things that they do.

oops nakalimutan ko…why nga ba?
well, let’s admit it…no matter how good your intentions are, there will always be people who will never fail to see bad things in you.
kung si Jesus Christ nga di nila pinatawad sa paninira at kakitiran ng utak nila…tayo pa kaya na tao lamang…at bading pa?
gosh ang hirap talaga ng buhay ng isang gay…kaya nga dapat maging proud tayo sa sarili natin kung may mga tao tayong napapaligaya sa mundong ito.

Even if I opt not to know, I will know. So instead I let my time be consumed by experience, not really to know, but just to have my time shared with people, things, and events. Reasons, they make my life more complicated. I don’t predict reasons, I infer them after the experience.
Ten years after my death who will remember what the purpose of my life was. So I discount the probability of me not knowing things and to waste time filling the gaps in my mind. Else, I wander the bounds of this limitless nature of human, and focus on my body, where I am, what I feel, and walk somewhere white-ish when I want to become white-ish, and there dark-ish when I feel to become dark-ish.
I don’t treat life as a school, where I procedural-ly learn, because to know is not a task, it is co-existent with breathing, it comes without anticipating. I treat life as a show, I the actor, I the director, and I the lone audience looking straight into my character. I can make it boring, I can make it fun, and I have all the right to direct points at issue.
At present, I chose being with street kids to be my quotidian. Not a mission, because I don’t stick to reasons, regardless how enticing they may be. But an experience, a very happy experience.
bow.

Who knows nothing is permanent in this world except change, just like the ancient philospher Heraclitus once said ” You cannot cross the same river twice”, what is important is Migs is back, and Migs is here to stay…..

Well my purpose in life is just to go to the world and multiply because God said so. World Peace!! Mwaahh!!

Mine is to live a very fulfilling life without the cares of having to deal with the shallow perspective of the society.
I should live the way any other person would want to…live a life full of inner radiant beauty and to serve, protect and uplift people who are downtrodded and oppressed i thank you!

In our very short sojourn in this world, we tend to venture out on things that spell out “happiness” - either for one’s self or for the happiness of others. Most of us would find ourselves doing different things in each phase/ stage in our lives. Some never really stay long in an endeavor, though some would find settlement in a particular cause - where they’d complete life’s travel (living and dying as a father/ mother to his/ her kids, or for others, as a volunteer in an NGO fighting for a cause.
As for me, as I haven’t even reached half of my journey, I’d have to settle with what I can do for the meantime - for others and for myself… may it be as a volunteer in an orphanage, or currently as a sign language translator for church songs for the deaf. In the end, what I all have is time… and I make the best out of it… wasting nothing of it to see precious smiles from others and from me as I look in the mirror before I sleep (hindi para magpaka vain no, mag smile lang tlga, promise).
Omnia aliena sunt, tempus tantum nostrum est - “Nothing is ours except time”

My purpose is the purpose my Creator has for creating me. I live to eat.

Can you repeat the question?
Haha!
Seriously? To tell everyone to share everything while they can until their last breath, because everything is not permanent.

ay parang mahirap… maliit lang kasi utak ko eh.. hehe… let me see…
My purpose in life is to find and fulfill the purpose bestowed upon me. It’s simple. Nobody ever told us, since we were born, what is our purpose in life. What ever things that people want us to be are nothing but expectations. We must remember that we are all children of God, Christians, Muslims or Jew alike. And since we are all children of God, it means that we are all part of the grand design of life. All of us fulfill our role or purpose, be it bad or good. Because in the eye of the Lord, there is no rotten apple among us.

My purpose in this life is to leave the world a better place than when I found it. All of us have that capacity to make this world a better place, whether gay or straight, and to help make our own corners of the world a little brighter, happier, more kind, more loving. If I can find someone to stand by me as I fulfill my purpose, and he fulfills his, then I will be all the more blessed. I thank you.

My purpose in life is to live a life of service… be it at home, at work, in church or in the community… i believe that my simple talents are God’s instruments for me to reach out to those in need of my help.

Be of service to others and and a catalyst of change in building a just and humane society, where everybody is treated with equality and respect. Where love is tolerated without regards to gender.
My purpose therefore is not just to exist but to be with the people who believes that there is a hope in the future and actively doing things in trying to achieve this.

answer: good evening ladies and gentlemen. before i give my answer i would like to thank the judges for a very thought provoking question. and to answer the question “What is your purpose in life? And how come you say it is so?” i believe that my purpose in life aside from achieving the goals that i have set for myself is to be able to support the aspirations of others in the best way that i can. this is so because i believe that living doesn’t only revolve around our individual wants but on how we share our dreams and learnings with those around us and at the same time respond to their own hopes and dreams. and i end my answer with a line from our dear barbara streisand… people who needs people are the luckiest people in the world…

I think it’s to make life easier for others. kasi i’m 31 and i still dont know what to do with my life, so i guess the best i can do it to help others fulfill their own destinies.

My purpose in life would be to contribute positively to other people. I know I can not please everyone but I’ll try.
A good deed comes from one act of random kindness.. quote unquote.hehe..
