LIFE’S PURPOSE
Do This One Simple Thing To Discover Your Life’s Purpose
Here’s what has worked for me.
This is all we want:
Everything under the sun is chasing the same high:
From the birds — the soaring eagle towering over us — to the worm wobbling through the mud. Yes, we are no different from a worm. We are no different from the trees and the butterflies.
We’ve become clever — cleaner–about our greed.
We’ve dressed it up in fancy tales of spiritual quests and philanthropic adventures.
And still, all we want is this:
To explore and express our full potential. It sounds anti-climactic (I know), but that’s all there is.
We want to shine as bright as we can. To sing — no, belt — at the top of our lungs. We want to flow. To sublimate. To diffuse into the air around us, into the people around us — our lovers.
We want our songs to sink into their skins — our words to become earworms they can’t get out of their minds, the perfect soundtrack to their existence.
All we want is to express ourselves, in one way or another.
