This day started off rough, progressed to better, and ended with an amazing realization. I've heard it, said it, even thought I believed it many many times in the last few years before, but I think I didn't truly understand it until today...
My purpose in this life is simply to BE ME
In saying that, I mean without judgement or expectation, having to earn, work for, help others, not hurt others, do good, do no wrong, use my gifts, be successful, have a family, have a career, be spiritual, be religious, grow, learn, find love, have friends, impress others, gain respect, be perfect, be right, be smart, know better, know more, be economical, be environmental, or DO/BE/ACCOMPLISH anything for that matter!!!
I can CHOOSE to do any of those things. It's the moment I take on the idea that I'm expected to do anything in particular, is the moment I then choose to no longer be me. Life is about fun, play, joy, happiness, peace, calm, love and experience...and most importantly releasing ALL RESISTANCE to those things.
So then the question isn't who AM I? I'm me...the question is what makes me FEEL like me? What things resonate with me and make me feel like I'd be a little "less me" if they weren't in my life. From now on I choose to BE as honest as possible with myself about what these things are. :-)
Life makes sense...finally!
