It's all for the Love of Love

Why Do We Exist Contest Winner 
I am because I think... or do I think because I am? 
Do I exist for greater good, or is it all a sham?

I rather like to think I think because I've always been
A part of one great happy whole that we're all sharing in. 

If this be so, then here on earth, I merely am a guest,
And it becomes my privilege, this whole to manifest.

The love of God is broader than imagination's scope, 
That I exist reflecting love is my sincerest hope.

When my frail body fades and dies and goes back to the dust, 
The form of energy must change and being-ness adjust.

If I have loved with all my heart and cared with earnest soul,
My purpose here is then fulfilled for I have reached my goal.

This is a poem with 6 rhyming cuplets where each line has 14 syllables. I am using the U.S. English pronounciation for the word 'been' which is 'bin' and not the British English pronounciation, which is 'been' with a long e sound.
