I often hear the old question asked "What is the meaning of life?" well I'll let you in on a secret we decide our own fate, as in what we dedicate ourselves to is our meaning. For example if money becomes our idol our meaning becomes to serve that master, or if we dedicate ourselves to love it defines everything we do.
To be dedicated means to make a choice and never compromise, the lukewarm will never succeed. To be defined is to know ourselves, to be alive is to free ourselves. The worst thing we can do is wait for someone else to define our lives for us, we are meant to be free as a person of our own making never as a puppet.
What we create leaves a legacy, the meaning of our lives can be found in the effects on others. Did we inspire others? Did we make things better? Did we live in regret and fear, or did we live in accomplishment and love? In the end it makes all the difference because the end is indeed the beginning.
It is not just being in with both feet. Be prepared to die for it!
ReplyDeleteYes, true dedication is without compromise even in the face of death.
DeleteSo true. What is the meaning of life? It is meaningless if you do nothing with it. It is in vain if you squander it. It is the canvas of your masterpiece if you make the most of it.
ReplyDeleteExactly, it's up to us to be the masters of our own fate the meaning is found within the results.
DeleteFree will means we are able to choose for our selves. However, it also means we must take responsibility for the decisions we make. True meaning in life comes from doing what you love.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely, without choice there would be no meaning and with any choice the tree can be judged by the fruit it bears.
