Shouldn't our purpose be the area in which we can contribute the greatest good and light to the world?

What about the talents we are born with, the areas where contribution flows easily from us and are actually feels euphoric? That is what we should look to in contribution.

The 'earth as your school' model looks a little too self-centered. I've always thought that any personal lessons are really little obstacles that end up with us opening up our God/love channels more, and thus we end up contributing more good to the world. I think our primary purpose on earth is not learning lessons for ourselves, but is contributing light and progress to the world.
