I'm a religious person figuring out and accepting that the purpose of life is different from each individual and varies from the like Growing up Christian and until now is that people's perspective change and people change but what doesn't change (or changes as little as possible) is what you enjoy as a person or what makes you happy as an individual by which you should pursue with the fullest extent of your mind body an soul. Granted, within the laws of your state and country which as well protects you and your fellow neighbors from those whose pursuit of happiness may/may not be as well accepted by those of authority, nevertheless, as long as your passion in life is legal (to an extent) there should be no reason to find out who you are and then find what makes you happy and then going on from there only you and you alone can make this decision.
However, it's perfectly acceptable to ask for guidance every now an then. Good luck!
