PURPOSE...

In reflecting over all that I have accomplished in my life, like most of you, I decided to write a passage to carry through my everyday life, to remind me of my purpose. I truly enjoy the philosopher RUMI, and based on his principles of purpose, I would like to share this with each of you: Remember, there is one thing in tis world which you must never forget to do... that is Love the Lord thy God with all thine heart and soul. Another, is that as human beings, we come into this world to do a particular work. That work is your purpose, and each is specific to each person. If you forget EVERYTHING ELSE, and not the above, then there is nothing for you to worry about. However, if you do EVERTHING ELSE and forget your true work, the work which is the purpose that God has put you here on earth to do, then you will have done NOTHING in your life at all. You would have accomplished nothing. As such, let the Lord lead you and you will fully realize your purpose in this life... accomplishing everything important. Recreated by: Vera (Original concept by the philosopher Rumi) Remain blessed!
