 My Purpose Doesn't Make Me Cry
I understand Steve's idea here with the finding your purpose exercise, but I don't find crying (or an emotional response) to be the litmus test for one's real purpose.
I like the idea of listing answers out because it makes me dig below all the conditioned responses I might give to such a question. But finding the authentic answer (for me at least) is based on what feels right and not necessarily what causes me to weep.
One of my favorite answers was, "turning garbage into flowers". This didn't make me cry, but it did fit.
