Many people wonder
Why was I born? What am I meant to do?
There is no clear answer or purpose in life until you find it yourself.
One might say…
If we were born to live why do we die?
If we were born to enjoy why is there so much sadness?
If we were born to succeed why do so many fail and fade?
If we were born to be free why are some oppressed?
If we were born to be famous why are most of us not?
But if you take a different prospective you might say…
If we are meant to die why do we live?
If we were born to be sad why do we enjoy sometimes?
If we were born to fail and fade why do we succeed?
If we were to be oppressed why are some free?
If we are not to be famous why are some of us famous?
And you may also wander if anyone else has the same purpose
Is it a race to see who accomplishes it first?
But the answer to all those questions is no
Our purpose is our own
Whatever it is, It’s our own
Whether it is…
To feed the world, to ace the test
To be famous, to hug a woman
To kill a man, to kill two men, to cure a disease
Whatever it is
Whether big or small
Whether helpful or harmful
We all accomplish something in our lives
Sometimes one thing, Sometimes more
So you could say that our goal is……
To accomplish to do something,
Anything you choose
But whatever your choice it’s always the right choice
Because your purpose is being accomplished
And your life has a meaning
Whether good or bad
But it has a meaning
But then again,
Some might say they weren’t meant to be born they are……..
A mistake, a failure
But the question is…….
Are some of us mistakes?
Failures, Experiments,
Born without a purpose?
Who knows?
No one but……… YOURSELF
