Life Purpose...

Have you ever thought of your Life Purpose?  I know that may sound a little broad and overwhelming, but have you even thought about it?  If your answer is no, let me explain.

When I talk about life purpose I am not necessarily talking about the future or what you "think" your life purpose is for all time.  I am talking about today. Today, what is your life purpose?

My life purpose today is:  I am the Berlin Wall, that is strong, confident and powerful, and that has been broken down to open up the other side of me that is sensitive, caring and loving.   (I am - that object/metaphor, that is - the action/powerful words.)

Today, that is me, and it may be me, tomorrow, and it had been me, yesterday.  But that life purpose can change.  Just like us, we are ever changing and evolving to survive within our universe.  As I said, it is okay to change, great even!   And it is okay to let others change too.  If we were to stay the same for the rest of our lives we probably wouldn't survive well in life.  As Charles Darwin  believed, species adapt, change, and evolve by natural selection.  If we didn't evolve, adapt and change we would be extinct.  Right?

It is important to have a life purpose today, and it is okay to change it tomorrow. We have no guarantees to life, that is why we must live happily and positively today.  (But whatever you do, don't go off living today like it is your last day on earth like spending money, quitting your job, and doing crazy things - that will just leave you broke, jobless and miserable.)  What I mean is, tell the people you love that you love them, smile at strangers, say hello to the person in the elevator with you, drop a penny in a wishing well, and make a silly wish, breathe in the fresh air, feel the cold wind on your face, or the warm sunshine.

Find your life purpose today, it can be as silly as, I am the pillow in my bed, that has decided to lay comfortably and protectively upon my sheets... HAHAHA...  (I kind of like that.  Wink Wink.)  Take a moment in the morning while you get ready for work, or after you take a shower, or when you are brushing your teeth, think about what your life purpose for the day may be...  And if you need help trying to find your life purpose I am here to help you on the journey, you are always welcome to contact me, email me, comment, etc.

There are endless possibilities to life purpose, just as their are endless possibilities to you.
