Reason of our existence

Don’t we sit down and ponder sometimes? As to why we’re HERE? Now, in this place, this world, this universe. Why we were born or what is it that we’re doing at this very current moment and why. Well, at least I often ask myself, when things don’t seem to go right. Why I was place into this world. To do what? To contribute what? To witness what? I know a lot of people often ask themselves what goals they want to achieve in life. Or where they should go from here. Like whether to get married and have kids, or settle for a less paying job but better job satisfaction, or to leave a place for another to achieve a better life. Well, whatever the reason, people often wonder where they stand and where to go thereafter.

Well, I think I was put into this world to make this world a better place. One step at a time. If you’re thinking world peace, then no, that’s not what I’m here for. I am here to fill the lives of the people around me with joy and happiness and help them through their most difficult moments. And I know why I have the family and friends that I have and why they are HERE with me because God wants me to be happy like how he wants everyone to be. But a lot of people don’t realize what they have till it’s gone. And that’s sad. Work, entertainment, sleep, whatever, they’re just “things” to keep us occupied when your family and friends are busy with their family and friends. I think we were put into this world to accompany one another. Human relationship, that’s why we’re here. We weren’t created so economy could boom or technology could be improved only to keep us apart or education could be taught only to score and not learnt and remember and put to use.

For awhile, I told myself to stop asking myself why I am here because I certainly am not doing anything fantastic with my life at the moment. But then again, if you ask me if I am happy to be where I am right now, then yes, I am. I am happy with the people around me, and grateful that I have them. I am blessed.
