Ever heard the question, what is our purpose of living on this place? Well... I am not going to get that metodical now, but instead I am going to pharaphrase it on a simpler way, and it is "what do you think is the reason you are living for right now"

It can be anything. I know those you married are going to say, for my family. Well, IMO I havent figured out what to do with my life yet, as I am still trying to decipher what I really like to do. One thing I am sure though is the reason why I am still cheerful about my life is because of a girl. I havent seen her in 4 years, but still like her, highschool love. I know it sounds a thing from the youngster, but I can assure you it goes past the teen love boundaries. Anyways, I dont want to get to sentimental here.

Whats your purpose.
 
I think you should start getting over that girl already, Tercel - four years, that can't be good for you!

As far as the question goes, I want to either 1) start up my own business or 2) be a professional driver (hence: paid - unlike half of the F1 drivers this season) in one of the higher Formula classes or perhaps FIA GT or ETCC.

That is my view in long-terms, at this very moment I'm trying to combine sports with school and social life - and my goal, if you will, is to find the perfect balance! At least, that's what keeps me busy.
 
for me? nothing i feel leik im always ignored, no-one ever talked to me att school other than my 2 best friends, just read my title it says it all
 
4 years for a girl, i agree move on buddy,

i think in life you have to have something to look forward to, something to go for, otherwise life is just a wait for the final curtain??

i myself look forward to the days of my child growing up, and myself :) , but then again i am married.

also i have smaller objectives to look forward to, my latest one is a boys holiday to california in july(i am from the UK), to see the superbikes at laguna seca, something i have always wanted to do after seeing that track for the first time, also we are going to Vegas......can't wait.
 
Good question.

Hmmm....I think my calling is in writing. Or as strange as it may sound, the Military. God has a purpose for me being here, and I'll find it.

My whole life I've been brought up around two things: Journalism, and Politics. Now a lot of you would call this "boring" or "no life" but to me it's been my life. Ever since I was 6 or 7 I've wanted to join the Air Force. I'd love to be a pilot. But there's two things holding me back: Fear and my family.
Even if I wasn't a pilot, I'd go into Aeronautical science or Aviation. I'd help build the air crafts and/or design them.

Why is fear and my family holding me back? I do not want to travel for long periods of time away from my family. I'm too attached to them. Plus I have a baby brother (who will be 1 this July) and I don't want to miss him growing up. Also, the chances of me being shipped over seas to a hostile country. Well actually, the thought does scare me a little, but I can't live with the thought of my family living in constant fear.

It's complicating to explain, but when Sept. 11th occurred I had this giant down fall. For a while, I had no dreams in mind of joining the Air Force. But in the following April of '02, our Junior High class went to Washington D.C. There we visited Arlington National Cemetery. The night before we went, the principal asked if anyone would be interested to help place the reaf at the Tomb of the Unkown Soldier. I enthusiastically volunteered. The next day, the principal asked me and four other girls if we'd be interested. Of course I was!

So, that day, as we marched down the marble steps and infront of the tomb, I had this sudden rush. Two girls and the gaurd placed the reaf on the tomb, while the other girl and I stood at attention. While they were playing Taps, thoughts came to mind. I had this deep, deep feeling. And when I watched them do the switching of the gaurd, something clicked. Words can't explain it.

I guess you could say Arlington changed my mind somewhat. But it didn't. It only tapped into my thought process.

So the two have gone hand-in-hand for me. Writing and the Military that is. Right now I'm working on two different war stories. One revolves around Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom. The other one revolves around the Korean War.

Summary: I write. I dream. I fly.
My calling is somewhere in there.
 
I'm here to do whatever noble cause I want to pursue. Right now, I'm bouncing between wanting to be an engineer and wanting to work in the IT industry, though at the moment I'm leaning towards IT.

Whichever one I choose (or if I come up with something totally different later on), that will be my purpose in life, because it'll be something that I love.
 
I look forward to getting agood job, getting a nice girl and settling down in a place for the rest of my life.
 
is the question: "Why do you think you're alive?" or is it "what are you doing with your life?"?
 
Im very young as MOST of you know, and well for now im gonna live up to be a big part of GTPlanet, and maybe be a Super Moderator when im older.. :O man look at me talk.. that would be cool mod, but anyway im thinking of getting into the bussinness of web designing, or car desgining. :D yeah thats it for me now.

The question is more like what is the reason you are living for? Is there something or somebody you are seeking for in your life, making it your life objective?

Anyways, I am not the type of must-get girlfriend to live type of person, but this girl brings me to a new level. Sooner or later, I am gonna have to deal with this girl. Is like something I need to care off, in order to go on with my life.
 
hmmmmm my whole life i have spent around wrestling. NOW, some of you may think that this is stupid, but i could care less waht you people think....anyway.me and a friend wrestle very good on the tramp.plus im very creative...i dont care if its fake or not...but i cant help it...i want to wrestle....

Same here, dude.

I also wouldn't mind being a DJ. :D :p
 
I live to save lives. Seriously. I've volunteered on a rescue squad for the past 3 years, and I'm about to become a paid EMT-B in a major city and eventually a paid Paramedic, and hopefully some day a firefighter-paramedic or a flight nurse along with completing college and becoming an aerospace engineer.

Saving lives, or just helping people who need someone to talk to, is what I care about most (until I get a wife and kids).
 
That is kind of like my Dad.
He works as a Welder/fabricator, but is also a volenteer (sp) Paramedic.
 
four years....hmmm... i dunno.. i think its kinda swit how he is still stuck up with the girl (not a sarcastic remark)... me... what do i live up for? i guess my little bro and the idea of me having a successful life in the future with matching condo, credit cards and cool fast cars... nice imagination isn't it?!:lol: :lol: :D
 
Well, i live for the feeling of living? Haha..

Actually, i have a reason to live for now, and who is that, you ask? THe girl in my sig. :)

I also plan to have a good future in the automotive business. :)
 
her name is Aura Yamil. she is 20. and she is the love of my life. and I dont care of what im gonna be doin within a few years, i dont care on what im gonna be working on, I dont care at anything. the only objective ive got in my life rite now is to share it with her. I cant live without her. she has given my life a reason to still be a life. if it wasnt for her, probably I wouldnt even be here (not in gtplanet, but in earthplanet) and has given me the will to go on... I just want to be with her, love her... and share our lives to the very end... and further ^^
have a family, and just being together for the etrnity. yeah, im WAAAAY romantic, but I love her too damned much... she loves me too damned much... to even care about anything else.

Cano
 
i agree... that is way too sweet... hmmm wonder how old is Cano? to think of something so far ahead like having families and stuff... you must really love each other that much... *sigh*
