Our Life Purpose

I know there's a lot of people that will agree on this topic.  It's something I think about every day.  My question is:  Do you ever feel that you are meant to do something?  Like were you put here on Earth to do something for a certain reason.

Obviously this answer will differ from person to person.  Your view can also differ from someone else's view of what you should be doing.  Some are meant to be performers and some teachers.  You may be currently fulfilling your "purpose," but most of us are still searching for the opportunity.

Personally I feel I am meant to be a basketball coach.  I've done it at two levels, but have relocated and have been unable to get back on the sidelines since.  My grasp of the game and ability to recognize and anticipate plays/sets is greater than most people I know.  Concepts and schemes come easily.  For example I went to an Oak Hill Academy game last year and by the second half I was able to consistently to call out the sets/plays they were about to run.  Basketball is what I know and what I feel I've been put here to do.  The bonus...I love the game.

I've shared my perceived purpose and now I'd like to open this up to all of you.  What do you believe you are meant to do?  Are you doing it now or still trying to obtain the goal?  Leave your response as a comment.
