How and what would you be GENUINELY remembered for, by the people who encountered you, when your earthly sojourn is over?
It’s usual when certain tragic or painful incidents happen, especially when loss of precious lives are involved, for any sensible well meaning adult to take the opportunity to evaluate their own lives, and made quick adjustments where such is required.
As the scriptures say:
“It is better to go to the house of mourning than to go to the house of feasting, for that is the end of all men; and the living will take it to heart.” — Ecclesiastes 7:2
Visiting a place of grief ought to bring up wise reflection, remind living people to think about their own lives and mortality, because only constantly chasing dreams, and constant celebrations, as good as those are, can distract people from what truly matters, while sorrow helps build a wiser heart.
It’s important to understand that fulfilling your earthly purpose is important to God, because that’s how you OCCUPY and be a blessing to humanity.
As a matter of priority , intentionally focus on fulfilling your God ordained purpose on the Earth. Why are you in this world, at this time, and not in the 15th century, for instance?
Like I mentioned in one of my previous MusinGs, your purpose in life doesn’t have to be spectacular or grandious for it to be worth fulfilling. For instance, the Signpost remains on same spot, BUT fulfills its purpose just by directing people to a destination, without feeling jealous that it’s not also going to such destinations. The crux of the matter is to find yourself, find your voice and stay on your lane. Do it with grace, gusto, unfeigned Love, kindness, and courage, so that at the end of your life’s sojourn, you would have made real positive impact on the lives and hearts of people who encountered you.
Keep Living, Keep Loving and Keep Living Your Dreams.
Stay Inspired.
