I've known my purpose from the day I was born and will live to get there until the day I die.
Wow, that is such an amazing thing to know, you are so lucky! I think so many of us are struggling to find our real purpose on this Earth. I think we all have something to accomplish here. And you're so blessed to know what you're here for. Would love it if you could share more about it with us but I can totally understand if that's something you wanna keep private
I'm sorry you feel a bit defeated though, I know that feeling..it can get you down and makes you feel unworthy....but rememer it will always pass. Everything happens for a reason and in the end you'll find the ultimate balance through it all and can be very proud of yourself.
LOL I could talk about being this type of person for hours, but anyway - hang on girl! :huggy:
Awww thanks girl
Sometimes all it takes is someone to open your eyes on something... Thank you so much for caring :hug:
So many wonderful people here
I had bit of an mj dream last night but he wasnt like really in it though. I was like oustside somewhere and it was dark. The sky was dark but i could see sparks of green and i think purple in the sky and i was calling out for michael. I was saying "michael please if u can hear me let me know somehow" , i remember just wanting to feel his presence. I remeber like holding my arms together and just i guess showing him how i needed his touch. But i dont think he came to me though
Aww, like Amy said, I'm sure Michael will come to you next time, sweetie
I know exactly what you mean. I often feel that way...that my life has become a sort of "treadmill". Though I'm very blessed, I really want to be contributing MORE. I really want to help people on a deeper level. I'm only 25 and yet I often feel like time is ticking away too fast and it drives me crazy that I haven't fully gotten on my "path" yet. Because for me, I know what I want, I know how I want to give back, I know I'm fully capable and yet I haven't been able get to it yet due to certain circumstances. It makes me feel worthless to just sit here not reaching my full potential. "All in due time" I guess.
I totally know what you mean about life ticking away so freakin' fast. And I think the fact that I'm hitting the big 30 next year is really getting to me LOL Well the probem isn't really age in itself. I think age only becomes a problem when you feel like you haven't accomplished what you wanted, you know? I don't think I would mind turning 30 if I was feeling fulfilled in my life. On the contrary, I think I
would embrace it and feel blessed & thankful for what I have. Well, I guess I got one year to accomplish all of these things and not feel like a complete failure when I hit 30 :lol: A song that comes to mind as I write all this is "Incomplete" by Alanis Morissette... Beautiful song.
Here are the lyrics:
One day I'll find relief
I'll be arrived
And I'll be friend to my friends who know how to be friends
One day I'll be at peace
I'll be enlightened and I'll be married with children and maybe adopt
One day I will be healed
I will gather my wounds forge the end of tragic comedy
I have been running so sweaty my whole life
Urgent for a finish line
And I have been missing the rapture this whole time of being forever incomplete
One day my mind will retreat
And I'll know God
And I'll be constantly one with her night dusk and day
One day I'll be secure
Like the women I see on their thirtieth anniversaries
I have been running so sweaty my whole life
Urgent for a finish line
And I have been missing the rapture this whole time of being forever incomplete
Ever unfolding
Ever expanding
Ever adventurous
And torturous
And never done
One day I will speak freely
I'll be less afraid
And measured outside of my poems and lyrics and art
One day I will be faith-filled
I'll be trusting and spacious authentic and grounded and home
I have been running so sweaty my whole life
Urgent for a finish line
And I have been missing the rapture this whole time of being forever incomplete
Seriously, do men ever worry about this type of stuff? LOL Sometimes I feel like it's just us girls over-thinking things, analyzing everything and never being satisfied LOL Well I think it's a good thing to question your life and have this desire to always move forward and grow. But sometimes I feel like being a man would be so much easier as they tend to worry much less than we do LMAO No offense to all the men in this thread lol
And
Amy, I already told you this but I sincerely see a lot of potential in you. You're very talented & creative, I'm sure there are many many great things & opportunities that will be coming your way very soon
Keep working on your craft and believing in yourself and everything will work out eventually
Just because of the last guy I dated. He was really into that stuff...he was over-the-top spiritual, considered himself a spiritual master. He always told me how he would kill his desires each day. But with him never wanting anything, he was SO BORED all the time. It was all he ever complained about. That Earth was so boring. He hated life completely. He just existed, and found joy in nothing. What an awful way to live.
Whoa... I'm guessing YOU broke up with him? lol
What a very sad way to live, indeed...
Hmm, sorry if this is all blah. I have a hard time trying to express things in a concise way and just end up chucking stuff in randomly :lol:
No, no, you actually made a lot of sense
The thing is, years go by REALLY fast (understatement of the year, lol). And sometmes, it's easy to get lost and "waste" those precious years, especially when you're in your 20's and you think you got all the time in the world... I think it's important to be focused and to know what you want. But it's easier said than done.
In an ideal world, we'd all have a job that completely fulfills us. When that's not an option, I think it's essential to find other sources of fulfilment (arts, sports, family... And of course Michael with everything he taught us and shared with us :heart: ), otherwise you just die inside, little by little, day after day... Again, it's all about finding the right balance. It's not easy to achieve but it's worth fighting for
And regarding the afterlife... I'm sure there's lots & lots of learning going on on the other side
*edit* Just saw your post,
Neeve
I have really learned that truly focusing on something and believing that you will get there, makes it work. It's amazing...when you start concentrating on doing something, and making the effort, things start to fall into place.
Exactly! You're so right, I truly believe that, too
It's all about committing to something and making the effort to make it happen.
