These are not complete sentences, nor even complete noun phrases. At least an article (or other determiner) is needed to make a complete noun phrase. Both "because" and "for" are correct English, but "for" is more literary, and, without punctuation, very easy to misread (easy to misread "plan for life" as a phrase).
