Is There A Purpose In Life In This World

By Eula Clarke


At some point one may question their existence. By asking the question, is there a purpose in life, you may find that it is something to ponder. Some people just live their lives without dwelling on this too much, but others are always thinking about this. Some say that you shouldn't think too much because it can lead to emotional stress.

There are many reasons why one ends up on the earth. This is up for the individual to decide. It could be something to do with their faith and their spirituality. Some people are more based on evolution. There are various theories and schools of thoughts along with people that lead these ideas.

In the Eastern faith, with that of Buddhism and Hinduism, this is slightly different, but also something that is not questioned. It is a life of karma. They believe that one day they will reach a state of reincarnation. They work towards this and this is their purpose. There are many personal reasons why people believe that they have a specific purpose for their meaning in life. They are happy and enjoy seeing their children grow up, for example. It is not something they dwell on something too much because they have lived a life which has been fulfilling.

Different faiths believe different things. The Christian follower will look forward to a time where they would enter heaven and this is something many dream of. Muslims serve God religiously. Buddhists and Hindus also look forward to a time in the afterlife where they will be reincarnated and this is important for them. The Jewish faith is one that is very religious and traditional in nature.

To get over this hurdle, it is best to work with a psychologist or some sort of therapist, such as a life coach. They will guide you through the difficult times and give you more of a direction. If one does not have a direction then they will start to dwell on the negative areas and this will get you down. One will start to think that you are a victim in life.

One can always look to evolution and base this on that particular theory. That will tell you why we are here. There is no spiritual reason according to Darwin. With this in mind, one is just put on the earth because they have been developed in a certain way and there is no real meaning.

One could also just come up with their own feelings and theories which are meaningful to them. There is usually something that is significant to everyone and that is the thing to hold onto. However, some people come to the end of their lives and find that there is nothing that stands out and wonder why they have been put into this world.

It could be something personal, such as a child they have witnessed being born or when they got married. For some people who have been happy their whole lives, they will never question the meaning. A lot of people who are unhappy or who have psychological disorders will ask about this a lot more than others. Psychologists have to be ready for this question because it is often something that comes up in sessions. They have to know how to deal with it. It can be different for everyone, whether one is a teenager or an adult.
