What does the question mean?

[Lynn]

Hello


Now you got me wondering what I will have to do for work over there. Man the number of ones I have Crossed to the Light already if that is a point for each one I hope the roll of toilet paper there is a long one . I live my life in aid of others seems to be who I am. I am told that I am a "communicator" in this life. I think that somehow fits. I walk with the living but talk with the dead. I can have a total stranger come to me on the street and bear their Soul to me then say they feel better.....then walk off. I always take the time to listen and try to offer a word or two if needed. What awaits me on the other side I do not know nor do I fear where I will go. I have the feeling I will not get to stay long forward I will come again to life. There will always be the living and the dead. Too I feel there will always be a need for ones like me to aid with both in a small way not seen by many.

Not the life I would choose but the one I was given the one I have to embrace with who and what I am.

Some people spend a lifetime wondering how to improve upon that question and all they find is a garage full of stuff they had accumulated to gain meaningful purpose towards that goal. Pardon my saying this, but it's not as if they make garage-sized tombs anymore.

What I feel for meaning of life on this plane is exactly what brought this question up; the quest for knowledge.

Oddly, it goes in accordance with every religious and religion-lacking principle one could base as an answer for it in the first place.

For myself; I've needed to keep things simple. And I've been shown through trial and error countless times that usually the most simple explanation is most likely the right one.

No Lynn,
Not those choices The other sort, if you see someone in need of help in the road you call for an ambulance, that gets you one point. To get a decent place you need many. Just think of it as the shieds on here as you make more posts you get more shields and at the end you have 5 of them.

Ok ye see somoene on the road and ye call the ambulance BUT how do ye know that person really wants that call made ? You act out of what ye have learned to be the "right" thing to do not what might be right for the person there.

Too one should not do things to gain points one should do things from the purity of one's heart.

I believe the meaning of life is different for everyone on this planet. God has a reason for bringing us into being, when he breathes life into us, he already knows our meaning and why he wishes for us to live. Now whether we have the benefit of realizing or knowing our purpose that he set for us BEFORE we die is up to him. I believe this question is best ask of God when we meet him.

I find that one of the problems with belief and faith is that you don't get the benefits until the end and it's not till the end that you know if you qualified for the benefits at all.

I can understand the idea of finding what your purpose in life was when you have lived it - what I think is a tad unfair is that your not given any clues when you start off ... it would help.

I agree with you there FF
