Greetings!
God created everything for a purpose and for this purpose, He created all humans including me and for everything created by God, there must be implementation of the purpose he's created for. So, the reason for individual existence must be well known for it to be made manifest.
So, this wonderful community of ours has really put to us a question that I think should be a question for everyone that lives on the face of the earth. Not only that, even for those that are to come. This is because the topic is a very deep one that has this kind of a close connection with one's life and destiny. In fact, it's a question of destiny.
So, going by the topic before us which has to do with a question as to why I'm here? Seriously, I would say I'm here just to fulfill my destiny. Before I go into the full details of my write up, there's a saying that I would like to bring forward. The saying that, “ when the purpose of a thing, abuse is inevitable. “ is a common saying, but it's a deeper meaning which means we only make good use of something we know its purpose and misuse something we do not know its purpose.
So, bringing this into the context of the topic before me, I would like to say, most of the people living on the face of the earth don't even know the purpose of their existence and this has really culminated into most of their failure to fulfill their destiny. So, like I said, their inability to know why they are here speaks volume of their current failure.
While growing up, I was not that sensitive to my existential purpose or as to why I'm here on earth and that's why I always wanted to do everything I see people doing, especially when it comes to career or business. Back then, when i see someone trying to be a doctor, i too would in my mind would also want to be one, if there's anyone trying to be a lawyer or an engineer around me, i too would also love to be someone like that and in fact, there's times I tried to pursue the same dream as others, but it's always all to no avail.
So, during this time of trying to be and live like others, I was not so sure of what would become of me and not only that, I was not so certain of why I am here on the planet earth and with that, I wasn't getting the desired result of my life.
But, even with me not getting the bearing of my life back then, there's something that used to amaze me. That thing that used to amazed me was my ability to impact knowledge into people through my teaching skills. Though I was called a born teacher by friends and family, teaching was one thing I hated most in those days.
So, when I was to register for my entrance exam into the university, instead of knowing the reason for my existence and walking towards its path, I chose the other path of wanting to be what I was not created to be and in the process, I wasted my precious time in chasing the shadow.
But it got to a time that I was advised to redirect my steps to why I was where and that's when I chose to walk on the path of the reason of my existence. So, I chose to apply for a teaching course in the university and when I did, everything right from there began to work for me in this my chosen course of study and later my chosen field.
So, it's in the course of discovering why I am here that everything began to work for me, and aside that, things were really made easier for me than expected and now, impacting knowledge through teaching has really been of great benefit and of utmost importance to me and the people around me. To the glory of God, I have really done well for myself and the people around me.
I have impacted many lives and destiny has really been changed from worse to good through my teaching skills and in fact, I'm now walking in the fulfillment of my destiny and this wouldn't have happened if I have not really discovered as to why I'm here.
It's really good to know why you are here as this would go a long way in making one to fulfill his or her destiny and even help those that have been attached to the reason for his existence. There's people attached to our existence and when why we are here is not known, then nothing concrete would happen in our lives and to help those attached to our existence would prove difficult and impossible.
