Day 24 of 366

"The tragedy of life doesn't lie in not reaching your goal. The tragedy lies in having no goal to reach."

Benjamin Mays.

Life is not just about existence, but living, and living entails having a goal, a vision and a purpose to achieve. It is in living for a purpose that we find fulfillment as human beings.

The hallmark of a purposeful life is in having a goal to reach, having a purpose to live for. Not reaching ones goal is not a tragedy, or failure. Merely having a goal will help one live an organized, and patterned lifestyle, but the greatest tragedy that can happen to a man, is not to have a goal, or a target for which he aims at, it is an utter waste of oxygen, water, space, food, and the gift of life.

Life is God's gift to us, what we do with our lives, is our gift to God. If we live our lives without a purpose or goal to reach, we would have wasted the gift of God. The world has become a better place, because some people lived purposeful lives, they lived to make the world better than they met it, they set those goals and achieved it, and today we have a better world.

If you must be said to have lived, you must live for a reason, or else you have just existed. Don't live a life of tragedy, live a life of purpose.
