a life of meaning!

Does your life have meaning? What is your purpose?
We can live our life day to day, feel good by making good choices. We can accomplish goals that are gratifying. But without a higher purpose and meaning we are still not living our lives to the level intended.
I can think of just a few people in my life that are using their strengths and talents for something larger than they are. Those few people really are leading a full life.
For me, I now believe I am leading a full life, it's a work in progress but I believe I am. Sometimes I feel like an arrow. An arrow can only be shot by pulling it backwards. Sometimes life drags you back with difficulties, but you have to look at what is coming next....... It means it's going to launch you into something great! You have to keep your focus and make sure you don't miss the target.
I have to believe that my tomorrow has purpose. Because of my faith I believe nothing is meaningless. I believe you are reading this right now for a reason. Maybe you are feeling lost, alone, fearful. Maybe you are struggling with something: addiction, weight, relationship, financial, identity. Maybe your just curious? Or maybe your a great friend who likes to support me by reading this blog. No matter what.... nothing is meaningless, and the truth allows us to throw the best of ourselves into everything we do, no matter what the outcome may be. That is a full life, even during pain or struggle.
Use your gift, use your talent and live your life with purpose.
