Have you guys ever thought of what's the purpose of your existence? Let's say, your parents created the opportunity for you to be born when they decided to conceive a child; there was no "you" before the fertilization, because I believe there's no "life" before birth, so your "soul" wasn't drifting somewhere in space and then decided to become "you". I admit that "personality/soul" is a result of brain cells work. In this way, we can say that at birth, there was no "gods intention" or specific purpose in our existence or our "soul", except for the purpose of continuing the existence of our parent's genes, according to Dawkins. So by that we can say that at birth our existence didn't have a purpose for us, but it had purpose for our parents as they decided to have us. So purpose of life was created by us later as we grew, or it was given to us by our environment. However, this is an artificially created purpose of existence, rather than a fundamental purpose of existence, such as the purpose of gene transmission, which was established at the time of fertilization, as I mentioned earlier. So we can say that the only "real" purpose of our life is a transmission of parent genes. And so thinking of it I apparently concluded that I in fact have no real purpose of my life rather than having a child. Everything other than this purpose is an artificially created purpose, where "artificial" refers to the result of the brain's work in creating the purpose. So what do you think of it and what's the purpose of your life? Or maybe you're living not because your life has a purpose, but because you're just already alive.
Please answer seriously.

To play Johann Sebastian Bach's music, for so long as I live:

There is no purpose

There is no "purpose" to anyone's existence. Tools and organizations are created for a purpose. Nature, including humans, just is.

Don't bring anyone into this asinine world.
Just another being who will one day wonder "what is my purpose?" We have enough people, thank you.

the purpose of my existence is to make the most of my life, and live as long as i can. i dont believe in the afterlife, so i'm not trying to be a good person, or anything like that
