MADE UP OF MANY ELEMENTS
We live because we are given a life to live. We who are living come into that life in any land on Earth. Some carry on the traditions of their own county or family. Some are born with a knowledge and a purpose, which they may be aware of from a very young child. For these it could be called their destiny.
If this reason is for a good purpose, to help others, this person will always carry the seed within their heart and their knowledge. This is why they live! It is knowledge, because they are already aware, and this seed will grow like a flame which never goes out. When it is burning inside, and as they grow older, more and more understanding comes with it.
It is like a jig-saw puzzle, when the full picture is first seen. Sometimes this can become very exciting, but when a jig-saw must be put together, it is in many different pieces. Let us say, like the days of a year, there are 365 pieces. And each piece is like a time capsule, which means, until it is time, it is not in it's right place.
Imaging in this one year, they had a job to do on this planet, and each day was one time capsule (the piece of the jig-saw.) But... they knew in their mind and heart 'something will happen to fit the next piece together, tomorrow, and the next day, right through the year.

'Something' happens which fits one more piece together, as each day comes and goes. For one whole year they feel like they are excited, and living on the edge. It is all in one good feeling that they are doing what is right for their destiny. This was seen first in the 'whole picture' of the jug-saw, and they are living with a good purpose, and a joy in their heart.
Every day in their heart they are happy, even if sadness and anything does not seem to always go right. This is why 'they' live! They cannot wait for it to come true, like the full jig-saw coming together. The destiny also, is that just like there are many pieces, for many days, it could involve other people who are also have their purpose for living.
And like the jig-saw joining together, each piece has now become a team effort of many, and turns out to become a project. The purpose might be
