Default This helped

Thank you for this post Erin!

You really helped me further define, as well as validate, what I already felt is my purpose while here. I felt a strong connection to the second category that you described, because for a long time now I've felt the urge to make a noticeable impact on humanity. Within my family circles I'm often considered something of an "old soul" of sorts, understanding or having a knowing of certain realities that are far removed from most people's lives, as well as my age group.

Although, I'm not sure how specifically an understanding I have of my purpose yet. Communicator and Teacher have a similar appeal to them because- it's within my nature to teach people of concepts and possibilities of human potential, etc, if they are curious of such things. Yet, there are times I liked to communicate a lot between groups of like minded individuals, often listening to what they have to say and asking questions where necessary. I realize this isn't a zero-sum situation, so I don't have to strictly adhere to one choice because everything is interconnected and has it's place. Although, I do feel a much stronger draw towards teacher, it would explain quite a few things in my life.

I consider the article to be a well place syncronicity, it appeared at a time that I was once again putting a lot of energy into focusing on my purpose, working on defining it more thoroughly. It has been welcome help.
