Some believe that we were all intentionally created or given life at this time and place for a particular purpose; the search for this purpose and what we are meant to do here on Earth in this lifetime is sometimes called our “Soul Mission” (or “Soul Purpose”). This is in contrast to those who believe life is random, or that we are in charge of creating our own purpose as we live. Some people find the idea of a Soul Mission to be a reassuring guidepost to align all their efforts and goals to; others feel a great deal of anxiety and confusion around trying to identify their Soul Mission, and discover that letting go of the idea a freeing and empowering choice.
