OK, but why does God need people to worship him?

It's not a matter of God needing mankind, but that "creation", in and of itself is good. In the Christian worldview (Similar in Judiasm, but i don't presume to speak for them...) to be is good, to live is good, existance, by it's very nature is a good that reflect the glory of God. I tend to agree...
Now, i'm quite agnostic about conclusion some draw, that since being is good, God is the source of being. It makes sense on many levels...why wouldn't God create, perhaps working through the event we know as the Big Bang. But i can't prove that, nor do i have a lot of faith experience that leads me in to that conclusion. I am content to explore that question, even if i don't have much of a hard answer.
Why we are here becomes less of a question in my mind than:what can we do with being here?
