Purpose

To be human is to have a purpose. Whether we are trying to find our purpose or have already found it; this is what makes a human. Without purpose humans are like animals who live everyday by our emotions. Up above are some examples of purpose but I think the most important purpose is to find our identity. I believe everyone in this earth has a purpose because without it we live for no reason and cannot be called a human.

In Siddhartha and The Bell Jar, the main characters are both seeking purpose in their lives. Siddhartha is a man seeking enlightenment; he goes around experiencing love, patience, and worldly desires. Esther in The Bell Jar goes around looking for her values and thoughts of the world. Like these characters, to be human is to have a purpose in life.
