As humans, we experience our lives as different stages of life. There are several stages that one poet has awesomely explained.

We go through Infancy, to old age and there are several things that happen in between. Most of the things that we experience are with regards to people around us and how do we interact with them throughout these stages.

As an infant, we have most needs. We want everyone to hear us. If infants want something they will cry until they get what they want, and as we start to grow we experience a drastic change.

Yes, we have an urge to ask for what we want, but there are some things that we start to understand.

Life isn't always going to give us what we want. It gives us what we deserve.

As we grow as a teenager, this is the time when we make several connections with friends, might be with some really good friends or even our life partners sometimes.

We try to use each and every medium to connect with people around the world. We have an urge to connect and experience life that we are not actually experiencing. There is a time when we all use social media platforms to make new friends and many of those are total strangers, but one thing is clear about them and that is they are something that we cannot think our life without.

Then comes the time when our schooling is complete and most of us start heading for jobs and some of us are lucky enough to get admission to universities.

Universities again play an important role in getting the best out of you all. It will allow you to explore yourself differently, which you were not able to do while you were graduating from school.

You will experience more freedom and now you are able to make most of your decisions about what you want to do, what you want to wear and how you want to spend your life.

Spending time with friends, thinking about start-up ideas, and working hard to prove some of the aspects that we all can relate to at this point in life.

Yes, of course, there will be opportunities when you will get time to enjoy your life and do parties, etc, but this pandemic has put a stop to that as well.

As you keep on growing, you reach a point, when you have got a job and you are working day in and out. There are several things that might happen. Most of the people just after starting their first job, start searching for a new one thinking that it might be better than our current job.

Well, they get to know that the other job was none different from the one that they were doing. So they start slogging days after days in the office with some smiling days in between.

Some of the people who are a bit luckier continue with their first jobs and keep on working until they find themselves old and breaking with diseases all around them. There are some exceptions of course, but most of us are all part of the same playground.

Now, this is the phase that I want to talk about, where all of us just start bragging and selling what we have so that we can connect with more people around the world. But this is not really possible at this stage. 

Even if you are a person with really awesome interpersonal skills, you will fall on your face while trying to connect with people who might like what you are doing. The reason for this is because every person is searching for one calling that can make them a billionaire overnight. Even when they know it's not possible.

Everyone is selling. See your Facebook, Instagram, Linkedin, or google plus accounts. Everyone is selling something. They all are promoting their products and services, which no one seems to listen to.

Some people are selling insurance, some are selling coffee machines, some are selling courses, which they think everyone needs on social media networks. But that's not the truth. 

The issue is that we are failing our barter system only.

If you don't have something that can add value to your neighbor, then they will not be interested in connecting with you. This is how adult life goes around. It goes around running after money and finding ways to make more and more money.

So, what's the purpose of life?
Many people say, "I am not able to find my inner calling, so that's why I am not happy and I am just one day away from being a billionaire". 

The issue is not that you are only one day away from being happy and rich, problem is that you don't actually understand the purpose of life.

Purpose of Life is to live Life & Nothing Else.

If you want to reach heaven go there right away, why are you waiting for old age. 

We need to understand this, because of which we always are unhappy. Our purpose in life is to live life. That's the sole purpose and essence that we always miss out on because we are always wandering in the future and past.

We forget that right now is the life that is passing by. That's why it is called a present. It's a gift to you. You are living right now, this phenomenon is not less than a miracle.

If we understood this first, we will be able to understand the essence of life to the fullest and then we will not be searching for the reason till the day we die.
