Excerpt from What Are We Here For?Not in any narrow sense do I make this assertion. I do not mean that the man who farms or bakes or buys and sells or teaches or heals is on this earth to follow that particular occupation, but I do insist that we are fulfilling the purpose of our being.We are either here for a purpose or we are not. If we have no mission on earth, if we merely happen to be, a very little consideration would soon decide for us how we ought to live to get the most out of life, for this being the only life, there would be no good reason for trying to live unless we enjoyed it. I will, how ever, defer discussion of this proposition until I have dealt with the affirmative form.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
