Purpose of life

I think an easy answer to this, is "to live it".
Even if you don't believe in God, your parents obviously brought you to this world, raised you, because they wanted you to live it. They wanted you to have a good life.
They wanted you to go through life and live it and to make the best of your life.

The purpose of life is to live it.
Just as simple as that.

In my view, life's purpose is whatever we as individuals make of it. Simple as that.

In my view there is no objective purpose.
Subjectively you can put whatever purpose you want on it.

My purpose in life is to be happy in any way I can by doing the things I love and helping others I feel are worthy.

I have no purpose I just deal with whatever comes my way and attempt to enjoy myself while I'm at it.

"To live" means more than to survive, but to live well. I can think of no two better quotes than the ancients..."Know thyself.," and "Happiness is the good that all desire." To do both requires wisdom and the cultivation of virtue.

Live life to the fullest and help a "circumstantially challenged" fellow man/animal/being in whatever way possible.
