Does Life Exist For A Purpose?

I contend not.

pur•pose
     noun: the reason for which something is done or created or for which something exists.
     verb: have as one's intention or objective.


From a creator's (God's) prospective
If God is all there is and all that will ever be, God does not have need to achieve some goal. God is already complete. Therefore has no purpose in creating life to achieve some aspiration. Would logic not then follow we serve no purpose to him/her/it?

So how about this instead?
We only exist because he/she/it does. What if we live each day as if there were no tomorrow or yesterday. Only the moment as if there were no time (there actually isn't).

Just what if anything beyond the past or present moment were delusions wrought as a tool of Satan to create dissatisfaction against the creator? In other words create internal strife. Perhaps even humans themselves as a means to oppose the creator's completeness.
 

Just what if we were to accept everything just as it is?

Would that not bring about closure for once and for all?
