Today the American dream no longer interests me, and now that I am divorced, I am searching more for meaning in life. The physical, worldly way of living has become very unfulfilling for me.
I have always wanted my life to have purpose and meaning. Some time ago, I sat back and wondered what my purpose was. I started reading books, praying and meditating. I was on a journey to figure it out.
Hustling and working for money no longer appealed to me. I was stuck, trying to figure out my purpose. I attended this Meetup group online about finding one’s life purpose, and I was super excited to get some answers. I felt like I am finally going to figure this out or start the process of finding my purpose. I listened to everyone over the Zoom meeting and started taking notes. Tears fell down my face when I realized that purpose is not just one singular thing. Everyone on that Zoom call gave different perspectives on purpose. Some had soul purpose, purpose in talents and interests, or global purpose; purpose to others was about being a spiritual being, being a light, giving and receiving, or being an instrument of love.
My lightbulb moment is when it dawned on me that purpose is infinite. We can serve many purposes and we don’t have to feel like it’s just this one thing. Purpose doesn’t have to be complicated; it can be really simple. I realized I didn’t have to find my purpose. I just became aware that I already was serving it. A simple reminder that my purpose was already within me.
There is a purpose in being a mother to my girls. I serve a purpose in giving because I love to give. There is a purpose in being light and loving everyone I meet. There is a purpose in healing my body and walking in unconditional love. There is a purpose in becoming a Reiki healer. There is a purpose in helping others find their own light. There is a purpose in my own pain because it helped me grow and learn. There is a purpose in forgiving so I can be free within.
Purpose is whatever you feel is purposeful and fulfilling in your life. Purpose looks different to all of us and should not be defined by one thing. It is infinite. I am no longer wondering what my purpose is. Each day I have a purpose in everything that I do.
My purpose in life is to fulfill my soul and help others on this journey called life. I have been living my purpose. I no longer need to find it. I am grateful that divinity has shown it to me. I no longer have to look outside me for a purpose. I just need to become aware of it.
I look forward to hearing from you, talking to you, connecting with you, and standing enlightened with you.
