What I agree some and disagree some of what bladerunner pointed out:
I agree about being present. It's because we live with the illusion of there are more days to spent, there's a bright future waiting for us. What is happening right now will turn out better.
The fact is it will not turn out better. There's no future. REALLY! Future is just an illusion because we might leave the world in the next hour (sound a bit negative but it's true.) People who died didn't predicted the will get into an accident and die. They also think that they have a future.
To live life to the fullest, we need to appreciate what we have moment by moment. If we didn't did well in the past, forgive yourself and live the way you want RIGHT NOW. If we are not doing well right now, CHANGE IT NOW! There's no someday or future where everything turns out great and you then you only change it.
The purpose of life is not a goal but a direction. If it's a goal, every human being's purpose of life is to die. So, purpose of life is not something to achieve but a guidance to living.
So, what's the purpose of life? The answer is THERE IS NONE. It's good news and bad news at the same time. Bad news is there's really nothing you NEED to achieve in life. Good news is there's nothing you need to achieve in life so you can INVENT anything you want to create in life. For example, making a difference, wealthy, enjoy all area in life, etc. It became a freedom for us to choose anything.
Hope it helps and thanks for sharing.  |
