What is the purpose of life on Earth?

I am wishing to tell those on earth who are struggling to learn what is the meaning of life―

It is the way you look at it that determines its value. 

If you think of it as a time for sensuous enjoyment, you make your life a thing of little worth, for such things have no value in the spirit world. 

If you look at life as something to be endured and gotten through with as soon as possible, you will form a character that has nothing to rest on here. 

You will have to create new foundations before you can advance. 

If you believe that life consists in praying and preaching―that spirit is apt to want to pray and preach here, and in this world, there are no churches and congregations that will respond as they did on earth and the spirit has to learn that there are other things to acquire before the true life can be enjoyed.

When a soul on earth can realise that there are others who need assistance―who will be the better for aid and sympathy and can learn to feel that this aid and sympathy can be given by himself, he is on the way to create the life that will mean the most to him when his earthly life is over.
