I heard today about a concept called "Outlive Your Life." I didn't hear the whole commercial or advertisement or whatever it was, but it got me thinking.
I think that's what we should all strive for.....to outlive ourselves....to leave a legacy behind. There are times I know we have all wondered exactly what our purpose is, how we (our little insignificant selves) can make a big difference and change the world. We may feel insignificant, however, we are nothing close to that. Not even a grain of sand is insignificant. Everything has a purpose, so how can we feel any different about ourselves? This thought rather hearkens back to my previous blog regarding doing something great and how great things are really available to us everyday. I tend to go on rants in themes for a while....hope you don't mind!
How do we find our purpose? Well, I think that we shouldn't have to look far and we shouldn't waste time waiting for a revelation from above. I think we should just take action, grab a cause and just do it. From there, doors will open, things will be revealed and your purpose will become clear. No one is insignificant, no action goes unnoticed in the grand scheme of things. All kindness is worth the effort, no matter now minor it may seem to you at the time. Take a step. Make a purpose....don't wait for one to drop from the sky and hit you in the head.
Make it happen. Outlive your life. Leave a legacy of love and caring and friendship, and you live forever.
