To see how long it takes me to realize what is actually going on.

You exist to become more than you are right now. If you indeed accomplish this....in time you may very well answer the other questions for yourself. I recommend you read up a bit on Buddah.....might shed some light on your lifes meaning.

*note- Buddhism is not a religion, it is philosophy*
