I believe you make up your own reasons. Many never even bother. I don't really think there is any master plan...you make your own. It's better that way. In a round about way I think we're on the same page.

I got put here because of one nights worth of passion. Don't think of it as more than that. You'll get confused.

I don't think we were "put" here. There is no outside agent.

If some sort of force put us here for a reason, then that same force would make sure that we couldn't die before our time. Go walk out in front of a bus and see how well that works for ya

I don't believe I was put here for a reason, it's hard for me to think that because I'm an atheist. If I was put here for a reason, who did it?
I do however know the meaning to my life, and it is to be happy, and help others as much as I can. I quite often end up being an "emotional cushion" for a lot of my friends when they are going through a rough patch, I know for a fact I can cheer my friends up when they are really down, and I'm happy that I have the ability to do that, and I'm happy that they come to me for support.

I guess if I was put here for a reason it would be to lift people up when they are down. I actually quite like listening to peoples problems and trying to help them out.

Yes, but perhaps it is that way for a reason.

You were put here to prove to others that some people can be completely oblivious to even the most obvious of things

+1. I was put here because Con Edison couldn't keep the lights on in my parents' apartment.

More than likely "that force" would have realized how smart you were going to be for wanting to walk out in front of a bus, and then he would have made that moment your time to go...

I live life because it is the only one I will ever get and I am going to bloody-well enjoy it. Once we're dead that's it, all that you leave behind is your memory, so you'd better work hard at having a positive influence on those you care about.

I respect those who search for deeper meanings, but to me it doesn't matter: the bottom line is that we're here, and we should all try to make the world a better place regardless of whether we're here by fortune or design.
