Ever notice
how, when you're feeling down, & you go give your neighbor
a flower or a cup of sugar or just a "Howdy" when
they need it...you just feel better?
That's the
micro-view of what contribution does to our lives. Giving seems
to feed the soul like a medium rare ribeye feeds my tummy. It
satisfies. It quenches. Yummy! I love steaks! OK. Where was
I?
While
it's a heckuva lot of fun to receive, it feels Awesome to
give.
Why are
you here? I cannot answer that for you. I can tell you what
I've observed that makes life flow instead of just gurgle &
drift. And when you're in your purpose, there's flow. Consider
these two aspects while you think about your "purpose":
- Purpose seems to always
be some form of giving or contributing
or impacting;
- Purpose seems to take
the form of doing something you love.
Wanna know
your purpose? Start with getting back in touch with what you
love, with what lights you up. Get back to your roots, remember
who you are. It's important at this point to be careful NOT
to be too concerned about "what can or cannot make money".
That concern, while important, can severely limit creative thought
thus keeping you from possibilities.
Being tuned
in to WHY YOU'RE HERE gives you a Spring in your walk. You don't
have to KNOW exactly what your purpose is right now...just be
aware that there IS one and that you're realizing it even as
you read this.
Can you
feel it already? As you ponder the idea that 
you're
on this earth for a very important reason that will effect lives
outside yourself, doesn't that just feel good all under? Come
on, you can admit it...no one's listening but me!
I invite
you to ask the questions never asked. Consider your role in
this amazing universe. Consider that you were created...YOU...as
being uniquely YOU, with a unique purpose that only YOU can
do exactly the way you do it. Don't squander away what God had
in mind the day He formed you. Be a good steward of your reason
for being here my friend. Open
up your antenna to your call baby! It's a very fulfilling
place to be.
