I decided that in order to make my life on this earth useful, purposeful I must involve myself-mentally, spiritually, emotionally- in a great cause. I’m not looking to become the next mother Teresa, Iman, Condoleezza Rice, Donald Trump, or even county police officer. The truth is I don’t know what I want to become, but I figure that whatever I end up “being” or doing in life, I can only successfully get to if I decide to have dedicate my times and efforts into a specific circumstance.
Like Baptist ministers who are said to devote their lives to the words and techings of Jesus Christ; they have spiritually given themselves to the lord above and therefor have "something" to live for- God himself. Artists live for the gratification that their and others' pieces bring. They live off the inspiration found in art. Life coaches live for the wisdom they gain in common, everyday situations and circumstances. Athletes live for the fun of the game, the adrenaline rush they recieve when playing their favorite sport(s). Dog catchers live for the simple fact that they don't want to see another stray animal attack a helpless girl in the streets. Volunteers live for the joy of giving back to the community. Motivational speakers live to impact the lives of others thru speech. And I, I am not a "minister," "artist," "life coach," "athlete," "dog catcher," "volunteer" or "motivational speaker". I am only me and until I can find who I truly am, I will continue to live for nothing.
