On The Book of Faces the other day. I decided to chip in my two cents on this thread.
I don't think anyone has a "purpose." The thought of that makes me think of the "predestination" idea popular in some Christian groups.
The truth is. no one knows why we are here, or if there even is a "why." However, the fact that one will someday cease to exist does not mean that their existence had no meaning. There are things that continue to exist even when we no longer do, and we can make a positive difference in what we know now as the randomness of our presence here, so that the things that continue to exist can be impacted in a positive manner. One can assign meaning to their own life, even without the promise of some reward or afterlife.
