I want to know just one thing which's for what do we live ? It's easy question but difficult to answer.

I hope everybody answers honestly Wink

Not a goal but goals.Different goals need us to get by our hearts.During my growing,i study and work hard for my dream.If you think your happy life by heart, your daily work will be full of happiness.You will be confident .

I love my life,love my dream so i run in my road smiling at my goal.

if you ask me face to face, I will say I don't know. actually I don't know ,it's true. maybe it's one reason, the other reason is I don't want to told the true, just protect myself. I want to know each other in my real heart. but I afraid to be hurt. so maybe I will say don't  know.

but now, I think I should think about this question when I see it. I am puzzled, now. when I was young , my dream is to marry with a prince. Now, i know it's impossible and even i marry with a prince, I am not sure if I am happy. the last goal in my life is make me happy, make the people who loved me and I loved happy. so I should work hard to change life quality, to make us happy. that is important. I live beacuse there are so much beautiful things, even bad things too.

but we know good things are good beacause we compare them with bad things. if there are not bad things, maybe we never be happy.

everytime i think about the question ,i will have different minds …

finally according to my personal experience ,i got the conclusion that the goal of my life is to enjoy myself .but the key problem is that how to make me enjoy myself

if i am a seperate man living in the world ,i will desert everything to travel without considering duty .then it's  nerver necessary for me to earn money and care about what others consider me .even though i wear old clothes and ling in  old house .i will nerver be afraid that my family are worried about me .

but let's think strictly about the truth ,as we know  it's impossible taht everyone of us is divorced from surrounding .so we must live for them if we want to live well .

because we have the incumbency .

now that we have to face so many problem considering truth,why not admit and accept it and try our best to make our life cheerful.

while i realize my dream and get my goal!!

what's the goal in my life? i thought this kind of question many times. every times i got different answers.when i was in junior school, my goal was  to be a good teacher.after several years, my goal changed. now my goal is enjory life. i think this is hard to achieve.there are many elements to prevent it.so we should learn how to solve this kind of things.in my own  experience,you should smile to life.

why i live?this is question i thought should asked my parents.why they brought me to this world.now we are very luckly to live in this world. we should thanks our parents give us life.we should live better.not just for our parents but also to ourself. to enjory the beautiful world.

My goal in this life is discover and gain new things because every other day is unforeseeable and Im very curious…I dont deal with how or who create world and others…
I like my family, friens, pets and its sufficient for me. The second thing is good job.
