Goal Of Life



One day I asked myself,
what is the goal of life?
Is it only to love, fun, frolic, and joy
or something else?
Is it only to earn money by any means,
and for this
you are ready to do any sin,
or
is it only to spread hatred and violence
among different communities?
So that there should be no good activities,
or
the goal is that
people should fight with each other
and kill their own sisters and brother,
so that
one nation can rule over another.
Can anybody give me the answer?
