Live impactful lives.

WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF LIFE?

Everyday the world welcomes newborns, and although we all do not come into the world at the same time, we all are born for a purpose. However, our purposes are diverse and different in many ways but it is all to serve and achieve one universal goal: making life easier to live for each other. No man was born for himself alone, the fact that someone had to carry you in her womb for nine months says it all. Most of that nine months and some years after was about you, they were moments that was sacrificed to see you develop, grow, and become a fully grown human.

We are all meant to lead lives of impact, we were meant to make live easier for each other, we were meant to fuse our visions and purposes into one universal and globally beneficial course for all of humanity. As Ralph Waldo Emerson would say, "The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well." If all who lived before us had lived for themselves, we would not have the world we now have, if they had been concerned only about what they can get from life and not what they can give to the world, our world will not be this good for us to live in, but they lived for something beyond themselves, and today we benefit from their works.

You are not supposed to just stay alive, you are not supposed to just live, you are supposed to be an agent of positive change, you are supposed to fulfil your purpose, you are supposed to live for something greater than yourself. Do not be satisfied with just succeeding, making money, and gathering wealth, there is more to your life than that, there are destinies hanging on the fulfillment of your purpose, if you fail them, for what have you lived?

In the words of Mother Teresa "Spread love everywhere you go. Let no one ever come to you without leaving happier." The best way to make the world a better place for all is to spread love, to care for the needy, to support the once who are weak, and bring smile to every face that comes in contact with you. The best job any one can do in the world is to make another man happy, the best gift you can give a man is a smile, so, wherever you go, whatever you do, show some love, spread some cheer.
