Sole Purpose of Life


The sole purpose of life is to make memories.People take birth and die, what left is memories of them. The way we live in our life, how we make others feel, the impact we have on other's life is what survives long after we are dead. Scientist say purpose of life is to reproduce and pass on the life to new ones but the reality is we reproduce so that people remember us in the manner, behavior and  looks of our offspring.The impact we produce in the world is what remains long after our death. The body and the soul has to leave the land but the memories we create with others can not be wiped out from their mind whether good or bad.Larger the impact we produce in this world and the more people involved with us, longer the time of recollection of our actions.



At the time when my grandmother's mother was dying due to her old age she was remembering the sequence of her life incidents in backward direction.How do we know that? That is because she was naming people she met in her life and have shared a past.Some people we knew ,some we didn't and yes in backward direction from present to past.The sequence of people and incidents she was telling clearly made, us to this conclusion.The memories we make among ourselves remains intact in our minds completely or blurry.The happier, the lovelier, the useful and fulfilling our time is, the more joyful our last time is.The regrets we have,the work we wanted to do, the places we wish to visit make it regretful to pass that even tiny amount of time before death if remain unfulfilled.Indian actor Shahrukh khan says its hard for parents  to die if they are unsure about their children security or their future. 


Therefore kings made monuments ,temples and name cities after their names so that future generation remembers them for the longest time possible . They made all the works written in manuscripts and chronicles in hope that people who read them will generate some good memories and impressions of their past.The large number of children they have, is also another way for that. We want to live for the longest time possible so when our body retires,the memories stand strong for at least some period of time.
