Purpose

 

 

A purpose is the one thing that keeps you hoping, by believing that in your life there is a meaningful purpose. Maybe you already discovered your spark, your motivation. Or maybe you’re like me, that you haven’t found it yet. But knowing that your glorious heart still has a beat, you, keep hoping and believing. See, I believe all of us have a purpose. We just have to have faith and keep our hearts patient.

  Every day I wake up wondering is this all what life has to offer? Is it just waking, eating, and sleeping? But then I quickly change that negative thought and believe God does have a purpose for me and as well for you too. Joel Osteen once said “Don’t just accept whatever comes your way in life. You were born to win; you were born for greatness; you were created to be a champion in life.” And I truly believe that. Life was meant to live every bit of it. Not waste it on complaint, negativity, and being faithless.

    So, I started changing my train of though. Thinking positive. And most importantly having faith like a mustard seed. Because without faith you can’t move mountains. So, I live my life by steps. My first step is to of course graduate hopefully with honors in Penn Foster online schooling. My next step is well honestly I don’t know yet. Because I don’t want to think beyond something that I’m not sure about. All I know is that I want to be patient and trust God will reveal to me my purpose, my hidden treasure. So to be honest I live my life day by day. Yes there are moments when I just can’t take it no more I become impatient with the fact that I’m not living life to the fullest. But through all of it I try to have faith.

 

   I grew up with a childlike mind. What that means is that my imagination was beyond magical. A life that many will think is impossible. But I was a child so I thought childlike. I believed one day I will grow up be someone big and important, have a huge mansion, and my dream car. I believed I would travel the world without regret.  How amazing is that? It’s an unbelievable dream that I just want to dive back in that childlike mind and never leave. When I started growing up I saw the world for how it really is. I started losing faith on the fact that one day my dreams will be reality.  I got mad at myself for losing that dream. Losing faith on everything basically. But today is different! I’m going to dream big like a child and give it all my strength to make my dreams a reality. So what I mean by this is to not lose hope on your dreams you had as a child. Bring your dreams back into your heart and keep them there always because it will come true. If you just believe it.

 

  From my personal point of view I believe in order to survive we have to have faith in order to achieve everything in life. Again yes life is hard, struggling, and sometimes impossible to live. But even in our lowest moments we should decide to have faith even though we are at our boiling point. Faith has kept me humble and I assure you it will as well will keep you humble.so I guess through all of this Faith, purpose, and dreams, they all go all in one. Because in order to find your purpose you have to have faith and in order to achieve you dreams you as well need to have faith. For me my dreams can be my purpose it may not be my full purpose but it is a part of me. So purpose faith and dreams are all one big word that should be put together. They are all combined in every part of my life.

 

 

 

   I don’t want to fear what tomorrow brings. I want to be fearless! I don’t want to worry I want to be happy in what I do. Of course I will be thinking about my purpose but I know one day God will reveal it to me. When I’m older I want to look back in my teenage years and be proud of the person I’ve  become and  proud of the choices I’ve made. I wish to one day tell my children yes life is hard, full of obstacles. But it’s your choice, your strength to continue on. I know now that I don’t have to be afraid. Because Jesus my Savior will be there carrying me along the way. Never once did I ever or will ever walk alone.

 

  We don’t have to do anything, we humans are not programmed, forced to live the life others chose for us. We always have a choice either to walk away or live in chains. its your life, your purpose. Will you decide to live the life others has chosen for you or will you choose your own purpose and live your own awe-inspiring individual life? Just remember life is way too short to not live it your way. The only one that should believe in your precious dream is you. Once you believe it I know you can do it.

 

 

 

  So try to see life with your own eyes. Try to visualize the world with you in in it. Because your purpose does matter. Many times I feel like I don’t belong to this world. I’m just another soul lost in mist of it all. But if you visualize you going into the world with your head held high being yourself I can assure you will make a difference. All of us without noticing do make a difference. We may not know our purpose or who we will be. But someone out there may see us with a different prospective.

 

    Making the right decisions for yourself does make a difference. You may ask yourself, what if I make the wrong decisions? I say that’s ok because the world is for living and learning. So maybe it will be a bad decision but you will learn from it. And it will make you so much stronger.  Also don’t overthink things. If you want to do it then do it! Take a risk! Take a chance! But don’t live life with regrets. Forget the past and live for today. All you can do is be yourself because everybody else is taken. So if your purpose is to be an artist, photographer, ski diving, or something even more crazy don’t overthink it just risk it. Enjoy life. Enjoying life is feeling your heart beat millions of seconds, having a smile that could break your face, feeling your blood rushing like a race car in a race track. That’s living!

 

  Purpose is not just something for one person. Purpose is for every soul living and breathing in this earth. All around the world people are trying to find their purpose, their excitement. So don’t worry your not the only one who hasn’t found it yet. Don’t live a lazy boring life. Live a bright, exciting, full life. I assure you you won’t regret living!

 

  I chose in this essay to write about purpose because all of us young adults struggle with it. We struggle with the, what will be? Or the what if? What career will we take? Will we be good enough? Will our parents be proud of us if we pursue our own incredible dream? Should we choose the normal life just to make money and make our parents happy or will we choose something that actually means something more to us? Can we even do that? I say yes you can! Live with your own mind! Make your own decisions because at the end of the day it’s your life your living. I decided to live for me and have my one individual purpose in life. I hope all of you young adults out there choose what you love and if you haven’t found it yet be patient. Take it day by day. Know one day your hidden treasure that has always lived inside of you will be revealed to you. Just have faith!
