My purpose in life.. I've been thinking about what I want out of my life. DO I want material objects like a secure home, a family, a job I enjoy... or if I had to, would I be content with being by myself, learning about me, finding a comfort withing myself and no need from anyone else to make me happy... all I DO know is that this conversation I had with one my friends reminded me of MY deep down ambition and "purpose" to my life...
friend: lifes so confusing sometimes
me: that it is but if it weren't sometimes i think we';d be way too bored our minds would have nothing to figure out
friend: yeah very true
me: and knowing that there are people who care about me... that's what keeps me going, even if they can't help or be there physically... even if it is just one person. even if it just myself
friend: yeah...
me: and i dunno.. maybe it is just me but when i feel like things are shitty i keep going cuz i don't want to give up when they are bad,,, i look foward to when they are awesome... and it seems as if u are heading toward to the awesomeness in just one small step of gaining courage
friend: yeah.. i mean, i feel so... powerful almost.
friend: i feel like i conquered my fear
me: and that is SUCH a great feeling
me: and i am sooo incredibley proud of u
me: i wish everyone could do that
friend: yeah.. i mean, it was def. tough.
me: i mean.. i always wish i could give that sort of power and liberation to people
friend: but.... i know im a better person now
me: and i am so gld u found someone who could do that for u
me: yes.. and that is something we all must realize
friend: and i am making myself promise that if [name] and i dont work out or something like that, it doesnt matter.
me: *nod* very good
me: it's not the end result that mattters.. it's the process
This weekend I am physically alone... but it has allowed me to be WITH myself. Perhaps that is something we should all become more comfortable with, no tv, no computer, no phone, just ourselves. If we can be happy with ourselves then we can be satisfied in any point in life.
