 Life is the greatest gift given to humanity but what we do with it is the issue. How we value it is very important. From the day a baby is born we see the joy it brings to all who have been expecting the arrival of a new person in the world. Thus, the
purpose of life is important not only for those who live it but also those around us. Life is the greatest gift that we get to do
good when we live. (Related:

Let me give you my picture of life so that you understand my line of thought better. Picture this: the green grass glowing with dew in the morning, flowers blossoming in the garden and producing a sweet smelling scent in the air, the sun shining, the moon and stars in the night, a baby crying, voices of people having a conversation, a smile on a friendly face, hearing school girls laughing, your brothers playing with a ball in the backyard, a heart beat, foot steps, the fresh air in the open country and the blue sky- yes a pretty picture; that is life!

Life ought to bring you joy. That is why it’s so important that you make the most of every good thing that comes your way everyday. We only have a number of days on this planet, not eternity, but those days allocated to you must be accounted for and put to good use.
When there is no purpose, you have wasted your life. What we learn and pick out will determine to a large extent how we will live our lives. That is why parents or guardians must ensure that they instill
a purpose in the life in their children at an early stage. How we are brought up will, to a large extent, determine how we will live our lives and the choices we will make and so on.

Life's
purpose can be about:
|
|
-
Making choices and having wisdom, knowledge and courage to do so
-
Being original – being yourself, and not a carbon copy
-
Giving
-
For our full enjoyment
-
Knowing yourself and finding where you fit in – very vital
-
Appreciating one another
-
Falling down and getting up!
I strongly believe that if you have a good perception about life you will
be able to find a purpose of your life and then journey through it with satisfaction.
