1. Why my life has to be as it is
''Everything has been figured out, except how to live.''
- Jean-Paul Sartre
What Jean-Paul Sartre means is that for a certain unborn individual, and for that
individual alone, God has a purpose for that individual. The purpose is for what the individual
should be able to overcome at a certain level. It should be the kind of interaction between that
person, and the rest of the world. It should be the individual's fate. All of this is God's will. God
wants to create a life with elements that he chooses. This means that it is impossible for planet
Earth to have every single individual to be the same. The reason why Earth functions so
efficiently and effortlessly is because of every individual being so unique. Different
personalities, and different perspectives provide different inputs, which in turn, provide a unique
set of ideas that blend together, and make planet Earth a multi-talent and multicultural society.
Therefore I believe that when God creates a person, every person he creates will have unique
ideas that in turn will make Earth a multi-unique society that God had always wanted.
God's meaning of life is about what an individual should achieve with certain obstacles in
a lifetime. For example, an unborn individual that God created might have a disease, or a
disorder that God put into his/her life. What God wants to see is if he/she can overcome this
debilitating illness, and live a full life. I believe that God will always look over a person as below
as Planet Earth to see if he has created an individual that was as great as him. He will make sure
if a perfected life can exceed his expectations. A life doesn't know what he/she faces, but God
has already planned in advance. The circumstances for a person can be devastating for a person.
But, he/she is not sidelined. He/she knows that God made he/she face this, so he/she can
appreciate the meaning of success, exceed bars, and make an impact on the world. God wants
2. he/she to show if his/her life is really deserved by the heavens. My experience in all this is that I
used to be a special education student when I was little. It all started since I entered
Kindergarten. My development during that time was drastically bleak. I didn't have as many high
grades as I did today. I usually had only levels 1 and 2 on my report card. I even had to have
Speech therapy, and an IEP. I was even left back in school once, just in the 3rd Grade. However,
all that changed in Middle School. In Middle School, I had very high grades, frequently levels 3
and 4 on my report card. Then, in 8th grade, my status as a special education student was
removed. I no longer had Speech Therapy or an IEP. All of that was erased from my past. Now,
in school, I was upgraded to a General Education student. I'm now a student who is normal, has a
great amount of intelligence, and continues to work hard today. This experience shows that God
and I both have faith in each other. The reason why God chose my life, my fate or circumstance,
to be as it is today is because that he can make me appreciate how people live life to the fullest.
God wants to show me how courageous and determined a person should be, and how I should
impact the world. Being from very low to very high in terms of intelligence all these years later
has made me understand what God wants my life to be.
Also, God should determine the kind of interaction between that individual and the rest of
the world. If the individual doesn't have a caring heart and views the world negatively, this
shows God that his/her life isn't deserved, and shall be sentenced to death. God will only give
blessings to those who lead life in the right path. I believe that the right path is honesty, integrity,
valor, bravery, courage, and dedication. A person is inhuman if he/she doesn't have any, if not
all, of these qualities. There are no blessings for those who violate this rule.
Lastly, God should decide the individual's fate. As I said, before a person was born,
he/she does not know what's going to happen to him/her in his/her lifetime. God already laid that
3. out for that individual before he/she was born. Therefore, when it comes time for occurrences to
take place, the obstacles that are part of his/her fate kick in as well. The challenge is for the
individual to overcome these obstacles, so God's predicted fate has changed course. That way,
God will know how worthy a person really is. If that person fails this challenge, then he/she is
not ready for living life, and not ready to be on Earth either. God is the ultimate spirit of the
universe, controlling all galaxies and planets, including Earth. So to say that a person failed to
control his/her fate doesn't mean that anything will change God's mind. If a person fails God's
challenge, then God will punish that person for not being worthy enough on Earth.
