Summary
One of the essential questions of our time here on earth is: "What's your purpose of life." It is a difficult question, too, as there are so many opinions on our purpose. But what if we look at all the people we know in life (past and present) and work on emulating their life, one day at a time. Might this perhaps be the essential purpose of our lives.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the happiness podcast. I'm Dr. Robert Puff. Purpose. What is our purpose here? |
| 0:10.4 | This is probably one of the most difficult questions that we can ask of ourselves. |
| 0:15.6 | And once we start looking, there are a plethora of answers out there in regard to what is |
| 0:20.9 | our purpose here on Earth? We were born, we have anywhere from a year to say |
| 0:26.2 | 90 to 100 years to live. What are we supposed to do at that time? Does it matter? |
| 0:31.4 | We can turn to religions, we can turn to philosophers, we can turn |
| 0:36.5 | towards people who think about this question and share their thoughts on it. So you may be thinking, |
| 0:42.1 | well Dr. Puff, are you going to be one of those people to give us advice on what our purpose is? |
| 0:47.0 | Yes and no. I want us to look at it and then I want us to think about what would be a good way to find purpose in our life |
| 0:55.2 | because I do think there are answers in regards to this question that can apply to all of us |
| 1:00.9 | if we begin to really think about what is our purpose how do we live life |

| 1:36.0 | And that's not necessarily the philosophy or the tenets of the faith, but more importantly, the people that we look up to within our faith that we think are great examples |
| 1:48.0 | of living life well. |
| 1:49.6 | Say we're a Christian, we may turn towards Jesus or say St. Francis, as an example of how to live life well. |
| 1:56.7 | Or if we're Buddhist, we might look to the Buddha, or the Dalai Lama is a good example of how to live |
| 2:01.8 | life well. |
| 2:03.0 | Well, let's say we're Islamic, we might turn toward Mohammed, |
