my speech about the purpose of life

 1

What is the purpose of life


Hi my name is Dejon and I am going to talk about what is the purpose of life. I hope you like my blog.
Eleanor Roosevelt once said that the purpose of life is to live it, to taste experience to  the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience.



You are here for a reason. Plain and simple. That's why you're alive. That's why you must continue to live, and that's why you must fight for your life. Your reason may not be obvious to you; it may not be something you genetically know from the start. You may not discover your reason until much later in life. It may even become clear that you have several reasons for being alive. It's okay to make up your own reasons, too.

What I think is the purpose of life



The purpose of my life is to use my ability to encourage and uplift others in a fun way by taking part in conversation, giving up my time, spending quality time with family and friends, and masterminding with others so that I am able to have a positive impact on the world and make it a cooler place for everyone to live.The  purpose of being alive is about happiness and to evolve of being how you were

meant to be on this planet. The purpose of life is to be happy and to honour God and the Holy Spirit. No one knows for sure why we were made and that is the purpose of life. I think God just could predict the future. But one day we will know for sure what we were made for.

People sharing what is the purpose of life





A few famous people shared their take on the purpose of life. The Dalai Lama said, “Our prime purpose in this life is to help others. And if you can't help them, at least don't hurt them.”  Pablo Picasso also said and I quote, “The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away.”

What is the purpose of life from God






The bible tends to approach things from the other end: God's purpose for creating humans, rather than from our side, the purpose of life. A verse from the bible: "Then God said, “Let us make man in our image, after our likeness. I hoped you liked my speech the end.



My super PBL

PBL - Term 1

Hi my name is Dejon and this term our Project Based Learning (PBL) has been about kindness and the big question was: How can we build community through our actions?

First, we explored some collaborative activities and discussed how we could include kindness and build a sense of community through our actions at camp. Next, we were organised into groups where we had to unpack the above question. In our groups we considered how we could spread community and kindness through our entire school community. We decided that we would offer something that was free and would make others happy

Reflection: we got rocks and painted them and put love hearts on them and then hid them for the whole school and after school the children at St Francis  went to find them. We thought it was a nice idea.

For our final product our group had to hide the rocks for the school students to find.

How did our action build a sense of community in the school? Because the school were having a good time and it was a kind thing to do and it was fun.

I contributed by hiding the rocks for the juniors, I also painted the rocks and worked my team.

I think the PBL might impact on others by making them now that kindness is fun when you show it.

What I learned about working with others is listening to the group because if you do you can get good ideas and you can get lots of work done and it was a good group because we could not paint the rocks at the last second we needed a time ling

Question - so if you were to do something kind for the school what will you do?
