It’s true that so many people go around confused about what their life purpose is all about. Some even wonder if what their purpose has to do with anything. There is a good reason for people to think about their true life calling. The reason is that most people need to feel a higher cause for their lives and existence. Most people have a spiritual side. They need to feel that they aren't born to just live through a series of experiences, and just to die.
They need
to feel that there are reasons why they experience the things that they do.
They need to feel that they, or we can use the various experiences that we go
through in life for a higher calling or good.
So, with
all of this said, just how does one go about finding their calling in life?
There are many ways to go about this task. For one thing, a person can set
aside some time for contemplation and meditation. As a matter of fact, deep
contemplation and meditation is necessary for this accomplishment. So find a
nice quiet place that allows you to open up your mind. Think about the things
that you have experienced so far in your life. Joyful or painful, those
experiences have taught you something about people, and about yourself. Think
about how you handled those situations. Did you learn how to handle the
situation in a healthy way? Did you handle things in an unhealthy way? Do you
know the difference? All of these questions and more can be clues to finding
your purpose
in life.
Particularly
for those who have lived lives full of pain and suffering, using those
experiences to find your life purpose can be healing. If people thought that
they were simply suffering in vain, then this could make a person feel that
they have no worth, or that their lives don't matter. If they can share their
sufferings, and how they overcame those sufferings, then they now have a life
purpose. Their purpose could be uplifting others who have suffered the same
fate. You could become a light of hope and aspiration to those who might feel
that nobody understands what they are going through.
Another
way to find your calling in life is to meditate and contemplate on the things
that make you happy, and that make you feel joy. Wouldn't it be great to be
able to use your energy, especially professionally doing the things that bring
happiness and joy to others? Of course, it would! So take the time to calculate
out how you can use your positive energy and light as the purpose for your life.
Finding
your life purpose can take years, and sometimes it takes all of your life to
look back, and realize what your purpose in life was. However, once you find
it, you will find such a sense of fulfilment and peace that others who don't
realize their life purpose will never have.
