Isaiah 42:6-7 speaks to us: “I am the L-rd; I called you with righteousness and I will strengthen your hand; and I formed you, and I made you for a people’s covenant, for a light to nations. To open blind eyes, to bring prisoners out of a dungeon, those who sit in darkness out of a prison.”
There you have it! This is our mandate. We are obligated to shine G-d’s light, to open the eyes of the blind and to release those who are imprisoned within their own lies and deceptions.
We are morally obligated to be politically active, vocal, fearless and relentless in proclaiming morality and righteousness on Earth. This obligation is incumbent upon every human being, regardless of one’s religious affiliations.

The purpose of life is to realize that everyone no matter what their path ends up together in Heaven. The transgression you suffer and the judgement that comes along with what people believe God will forgive distorts the principles of an All Forgiving God. There are no unforgivable sins, and God created everything to be in his kingdom.
So the purpose would be to earn your wings as an angel.
Live, love, and learn, that’s good enough for me. I don’t need to worship anyone to have purpose.
“I want to live my life taking the risk all the time that I don’t know anything like enough yet… that I haven’t understood enough… that I can’t know enough… that I am always hungrily operating on the margins of a potentially great harvest of future knowledge and wisdom. I wouldn’t have it any other way. And I’d urge you to look at those who tell you, those people who tell you at your age, that you are dead until you believe as they do. What a terrible thing to be telling to children. …and that you can only live by accepting an absolute authority. Don’t think of that as a gift. Think of it as a poisoned chalice. Push it aside however tempting it is. Take the risk of thinking for yourself. Much more happiness, truth, beauty and wisdom will come to you that way.”

Q. 1. What is the chief and highest end of man?
A. Man’s chief and highest end is to glorify God, and fully to enjoy him forever.
Romans 11:36. For of him, and through him, and to him, are all things: to whom be glory for ever. Amen. 1 Corinthians 10:31. Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.

The reason for existence has never been an easy question, first of all why you exist is very simple answer.
look at what good and excellent you are doing in your life like helping the poor people. now you meant to help people but at same time you have chosen to help people.
this deep philosophy has been controversial for centuries and answer is human is free and not free at same time, when you start thinking why that happened that way but why not in other way that is called a wisdom.
if you look at every thing you will see that there is a maker as nothing happens for no reason and nothing exists for nothing, after you sit by yourself and start thinking yes it is true there must be a wise
who built all this
this wisdom and beauty and everything is from GOD
he obliged us to pray for him but same time gave us our human time, he says i have created perfect creatures called humans , when u think of that word he is right imagine humans in other shapes you will see awkward and best is how we have been born ” the way we are”
getting to God is not easy task its a long way but simple at same time,all you need is to trust God no matter what happens this is called pure belief.
if you want thousands of proofs i can provide you

Genesis 1:28 Further, God blessed them and God said to them: “Be fruitful and become many and fill the earth and subdue it, and have in subjection the fish of the sea and the flying creatures of the heavens and every living creature that moves on land
The Bible is very clear as to what our purpose in life should be. Men in both the Old and New Testaments sought for and discovered life’s purpose. Solomon, the wisest man who ever lived, discovered the futility of life when it is lived only for this world. He gives these concluding remarks in the book of Ecclesiastes: “Here is the conclusion of the matter: Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of man. For God will bring every deed into judgment, including every hidden thing, whether it is good or evil” (Ecclesiastes 12:13-14). Solomon says that life is all about honoring God with our thoughts and lives and thus keeping His commandments, for one day we will stand before Him in judgment. Part of our purpose in life is to fear God and obey Him.
Another part of our purpose is to see life on this earth in perspective. Unlike those whose focus is on this life, King David looked for His satisfaction in the time to come. He said, “And I—in righteousness I will see your face; when I awake, I will be satisfied with seeing your likeness” (Psalm 17:15). To David, full satisfaction would come on the day when he awoke (in the next life) both beholding God’s face (fellowship with Him) and being like Him (1 John 3:2).
In Psalm 73, Asaph talks about how he was tempted to envy the wicked who seemed to have no cares and built their fortunes upon the backs of those they took advantage of, but then he considered their ultimate end. In contrast to what they sought after, he states in verse 25 what mattered to him: “Whom have I in heaven but you? And earth has nothing I desire besides you” (verse 25). To Asaph, a relationship with God mattered above all else in life. Without that relationship, life has no real purpose.
The apostle Paul talked about all he had achieved religiously before being confronted by the risen Christ, and he concluded that all of it was like a pile of manure compared to the excellence of knowing Christ Jesus. In Philippians 3:9-10, Paul says that he wants nothing more than to know Christ and “be found in Him,” to have His righteousness and to live by faith in Him, even if it meant suffering and dying. Paul’s purpose was knowing Christ, having a righteousness obtained through faith in Him, and living in fellowship with Him, even when that brought on suffering (2 Timothy 3:12). Ultimately, he looked for the time when he would be a part of the “resurrection from the dead.”
Our purpose in life, as God originally created man, is 1) glorify God and enjoy fellowship with Him, 2) have good relationships with others, 3) work, and 4) have dominion over the earth. But with man’s fall into sin, fellowship with God is broken, relationships with others are strained, work seems to always be frustrating, and man struggles to maintain any semblance of dominion over nature. Only by restoring fellowship with God, through faith in Jesus Christ, can purpose in life be rediscovered.
The purpose of man is to glorify God and enjoy Him forever. We glorify God by fearing and obeying Him, keeping our eyes on our future home in heaven, and knowing Him intimately. We enjoy God by following His purpose for our lives, which enables us to experience true and lasting joy—the abundant life that He desires for us.

Life is God’s test for us to either be with Him forever or forever be in torment. He gave us the rules to live by and it’s our decision to either accept it or reject it.
This all depends on your views of life. What you want from life.
It’s all different for everyone
No one way is the right way.

I pretty much like “Hitch Slap” answer. But I would say, live-love-learn AND laugh a lot while you are doing it.
Blessings on your Journey!
We’re in an indifferent universe. There aren’t souls (or spirits) or objective meaning.
We are on a journey back to Eden. How we get there is our choice. There the Tree of Life is waiting.
