I asked God in a moment of despair, “What is my purpose?”
A
voice in my head spoke clearly, “What if I told you it was when you took
an hour to talk to that kid and listened more than spoke? Or when you
let that mother get in front of you in the parking lot. When you helped
that man who had a stroke onto the bus because he was falling and you
caught him, when you bought lunch for that older couple, when you
rescued those who you call your “babies”
You’re equating purpose
with goal based achievements. Life is made up of moments that echo in
other people’s lives. not in a degree, or an award. I’m not interested
in your achievements I am interested in your heart. When you choose
kindness, compassion and love in the face of fear and hate or just
choose it period THAT is your purpose. No need to align with anything
you are already there.
