I've recently become interested in the idea of a life purpose, because essentially I don't think it's something I've ever really had, and I think that as a consequence I have a lot of uncertainty with the direction I want my life to take and a lot of self doubt about who I am. This has definitely bothered me less in the past than it does now, but I think that it is either a consequence of or the cause of lifelong issues with self esteem and that sort of thing.
Anyway firstly I'm approaching this from a rational perspective, I don't believe that necessarily there is any objectively true purpose for either individual humans or humanity as a whole, but nonetheless I think it probably, possibly evidentially, is a useful philosophical concept for individual humans to find direction and meaning in their lives... although perhaps it is more useful to (or more needed for) some humans than others.
So, to summarise, I have a few questions...

So, to summarise, I have a few questions...
- Do you know, or have you decided, what your life purpose is?
- If yes, when and how did you decide this, and did it make a difference to how you lived your life?
- If no, is this something that bothers you, and why?
