My Philosophy in Life


I always ask to myself, why were here in this world? What is the purpose of life? Why do certain things happen? I had always kept this question to my mind. 
Life’s purpose is where we get the “drive” to pursue what we want to be, the “strength” that will keep us focused in the midst of life “storms”. It is also the “force” that will keep us motivated even though there is apparent failure.
           Life’s purpose is also called calling or destiny. An element of “Spiritual Intelligence” is needed to understand a person’s purpose. An individual can determine his purpose in life thru: his/her relationship with the divine. Jer. 29:11 said “for I know the plans I have for you, plan to prosper you and not harm you, pain to give you hope and a bright future. Deep in us, we know whether we are in our place, office, position, service, stature. Where we are supposed to be, doing what we are supposed to do, and becoming a person that we should be.
           A purpose in life is not necessarily a job, and job change is not a changed of purpose.  Everyone has a life purpose, and it is possible for a person not to be in sync with his calling. If fullness is defined on material and economic gain, yes it is possible to be full even a person is out of his destiny. If fullness includes peace, satisfaction and joy that emanates from within “if the shoe does not fit, it hurts”.
