Why do we live?

It's a very common question: Why do we live in this world? What is our purpose in living? Other than fulfilling goals? Cause we make the goals ourself, why we make goals n purpose for ourself? What is the ultimate goal? I guess is to face n work out the challenges life throw at us.

The challenges gets harder n harder everyday, every year. Onces we go through one and facing a new one, the old one seem trivial n not as hard and important. Are these to prepare for future harder challenges? Self improvement? Learning? Maturity? But we going to die off one day anyway.... What is the point of having all that? Is there really an after life? Then what for we need the skills n knowledge we obtained from this life if we are going to be reborn as a blank slate?
Tabula rassa as what the behaviorist calls them. Or maybe like some other psychologists, we are born with prior knowledge because our soul from life before brought along knowledge from prior life?
