We live in an era where we have forgotten what life is all about. We live in a world of broken promises, in a time when people treat their words lightly. Saying things we do not really mean and therefore losing credibility and breaking the bonds of trust which ultimately leads to a string of broken relationship.
Every time we fail to do the right thing, we reinforce the habit of doing wrongs. Every time we refuse to tell the truth, we feed the habit of lying. Our thoughts and actions form our world and what we think and do grow into our inner being.
As Woodrow Wilson said, "You are not here to merely make a living. You are here in order to enable the world to live more amply, with greater vision, with a finer spirit of hope and achievement. You are here to enrich the world and you impoverish yourself if you forget the errand." Yet we have lost touch with our humanity and our purpose. We have lost sight of the things that matter the most.
If we live a lousy life, who will cry when we die? What impact will our lives have on the generations that follow? What legacy are we leaving behind after we have taken our last breath? Don't wait till it's too late before we discover what life is all about. The purpose of life is a life of purposes.
