What’s your purpose?

 A long solo ride, lonely room, sky watching, staring at the moon and sometimes a few minutes of meditation arise many thoughts in me. Instead of thoughts, I can call them questions as most of them start or ends with Why, How, What or When. And I love to ask myself many questions and answer them from my perspective so I get to know what kind of person I am. This is my way of self-realization you can say.

So, as many thoughts or questions popped out inside my head, this one badly wanted my answer – “What is your purpose?”. During my school days, I have felt I don’t have a purpose. But my spiritual mindset always mentions people are here for a purpose. And I used to think “Is finding one’s purpose is the purpose of their life?”. I don’t know if all live with a purpose.  

But I think I have defined this from my own perspective and I know it’s susceptible to change based on my future experiences. So here is what this man thinks about the purpose of his life.

There are many people born, became great and achieved a lot. For me, Abdul Kalam is one of the exemplars. But in my perspective, not all human beings are born with those great purposes. Our purpose can be as simple as bringing hope to someone or living by discipline or being helpful to someone. It can also be as simple as feeding a pet or keeping your home clean or gaining insight into something. For me,

“Purpose is living my life the way I want (without hurting anyone) and bringing positive change to my surroundings”

But do you know how these things are determined? By your direction and choices

Our life is a journey and it is dependent on a lot many factors where our decision makes the turn! Whatever decision you make, don’t regret or worry about it. If you have done wrong, try to change it in future. As the saying, it’s the journey which makes thing fruitful than the destination, be at your own pace and enjoy your life!!

Here is a reflection of a person I don’t know but I think - helping the street dogs may be her purpose. Referring to my old post – The Guardian of Dogs

Let me dream about

 What makes me a human? I have this big doubt for a long time. Whether the sixth sense or my emotions? And my mind voice says, "Arre, both don't count! You don't do/utilize anything better from that". 

When everyone can have their own answer, I thought of my own. I want my own perspective to define myself. And here is my one on few! 

"Dream"

Yea, dreaming makes me human. I dream! I dream a lot. I dream of different things. I dream of fiction, I dream of love, I dream of change, I dream of possibilities and I dream of actions. And these dreams are the ones pushing me daily, towards my improvement and success. 

When my personal dreams help me learn and grow, how about the collective dream's effect? 

The world has noticed these many times! 

When Martin Luther King said, I have a dream, When Gandhiji said, I dream of Ideal India, when Nelson Mandela mentioned, I dream of an Africa which is in peace with itself! These are great collective dreams composed and delivered by individuals which altered and changed the whole course of history!

Dreams have great potential and it depends upon individuals will power (In my opinion). So lets all dream of great things and make it happen. 

On this great day, come lets dream of Gandhiji's ideal India, where there is no race or religion, no high class or low class, and tears from every eye should be wiped. Let us all make this our collective dream and achieve an Ideal India what we dream of!
