Why do you think we exist [Spirituality & Religion]

Well that is an existential question. But if we consider epistemologically then how do we know we exist. Descartes infamous 'Cogito Ergo Sum' self denial to prove the existence of God so he then could prove he existed comes to mind. So in that context while I do not need or believe in any God per se, I do think we exist, and therefore our purpose if any, is to postulate this, or rather to do something with that existence to justify its' inherent being. What that is akin to is having blind faith or rather having faith by ones actions and deeds, or work and for me that is the true test of existence what we do with it. Lengthy I know sorry!
