If life were any other way, do you think it would be?

Duel question: If a person's life were any other way, do you think it would be?

Bigger picture: Life may be as a living machine that carries out its purpose as designed. If life the living machine were any other way, do you think life would behave/act differently if it chose to? Can life be anything other than its purpose?

What do YOU think the purpose of life is?
 
Would it be? of course! In the multiverse, there are infinate possibilities.

Mr Ed, Don't you know? Everythingyou need to know is within you.

In the grand sense of living the purpose of life is live and procreate. Everything along the way is icing on the cake.

There is a purpose for everything born into life in conjunction with all existence.

Mr Ed... I don't understand the question! What are you trying to find out?

I'm not asking a question, stated what I believe is the purpose of life

If you are referring to the topic of this post it is simply recognition of life as a cosmic machine. The world does as it does because it is the world like a machine. Question can life or the world do anything they are not made to do?
 
Living machine......??
Well, a person's life might be another way if the person had made different choices than they had in the past. If life was designed by a 'living machine' (?) their choices in life would not be under their control. Humans living Machine-like likely would have some break downs here and there that would need repair. Then what?
 
Simply put, life is to live in the moment, now and in the ever changing now. Any other purpose would be defeat.

What is the purpose of life? I guess whatever you look to make a purpose of life. Fail, or succeed, might as well just keep moving. Reach for a goal, it can be anything. Even if you're not in the mood. :)

If you ever get an answer to that let me know.

My dad used to muse about whether he would have liked to have been born later in the twentieth century, (he was born in 1920, and said he'd changed his mind on the topic to think not!), and he used to repeatedly ask my mother, "Would you marry me again Mrs G if you had your time over again"?
My Godmother used to say living through WWII was the high point of her life, or she felt she ?ived more in those years than during the years of peace, (life seemed to matter more, when you're threatened perhaps?).
Other friends of my father used to say things like, Youth is wasted on young people", (a very negative thought in my view, as though we're all supposed to be born grown up).
I'd agree life could have been different for myself if you were able to avoid some of the mistakes made by living it all again, but i doubt I'd be much happier, and some of the good I might have done in the world would be lost too
 
Not sure if this answers your question, but I remember reading a book long ago that talked about fate. The character speculated that each persons' FATE is determined at birth. He explained that each persons destiny, or fate is set the moment they are born, and that nothing will change. This is the plan for their life. I will have to do some research to remind me of where I saw that

Interesting, but I do not agree with the characters idea of FATE being determined at birth. Makes me think that we have no control over the choices we make in our lives because we are stuck with what is our predetermined fate.

Yes. A person's astrological chart. I've seen this come true many times in many ways for many people and it scares me to believe that one's "fate" is fixed, or inescapable. 🙁
