You are neatly packed and parceled and you come to this earth. That’s birth. Then you live on and on and one day “ off “ . Then a photograph and a garland around your photo, hung on the wall in some corner. The comments you hear are “
He liked eggs and bread for breakfast “ .
She loved pickles and pani poori .”
He worked as an accountant and caught the 7 :43 am daily local and came back by the 8:23 Borivali fast. He did this for 20 years of his life.
While all this may seem hugely boring.. .. the point is what is it that you would like to hear? …
That you were born and for 32 years or 57 years or93 years …did the breathe in and breathe out or that you lived a life of significance…. That’s important to you ..made meaning to you .
How’s this … “ she owned a tour and travel agency that took people all across the globe .” she loved travel.
“ He wrote several fiction books. 2 of them were best sellers.. a noted writer he was ..his writings were so articulate. It sure made interesting reading ..!”
Does this sound more of what you would like to hear ? if yes, then is the life you are living now anywhere in this direction- the direction you dream to be , the direction you so desire to be in .
Your role on the planet is with the treasures within you. You are here for a purpose. The abilities, the skill set , your talent is telling you something. Don’t ignore it .It is connected to your heart and soul. For there lies the treasure within you to understand. It is your responsibility to pay attention to birth what is within you. Talent and skill whenever used have always been socially and economically rewarded.
Listen .. because this is your inner calling! This is likely to lead you to find out what is your role ? As Mark Twain says “ there are two most important days of your life: the day you are born and the day you find out why .”
You are here for a purpose . Find out what is it that makes you tick ? what are you passionate about ? don’t settle .. In short .. write your obituary. Write it before you die …and do not die while you are alive ..
Doing what you love will make your life a life of purpose…. A life of significance..
As human beings we need a sense of purpose in our lives, as much as we need food, water and oxygen.This sense of meaning provides significance. It makes us feel useful and a constant reminder that our life matters. When you have a deep sense of purpose or mission you live inside out. This means who you are triggers what you do. You begin to live life more energetically, passionately and creatively.
And its never too late ..!
