Purposeful living, but what is my purpose?

“A ship is safe in harbor, but that's not what ships are for.” - William Shedd

It has always been my philosophy to go out and fail! Truly the discovery of this phrase cannot be read and understood. It must be lived... then can your eyes see the underlying meaning of what those that have lived before us have tried to teach us.

The grace of God is so simple and easy, often times we walk right past it with out recognizing it. Little by little, line upon line, precept upon precept, if we turn to know truth, it will be given to us. Yet how do we come to know truth if we cannot see or if we cannot hear?

It causes quite the dilemma. Often times we get so content with our situation, we lose the fight in us that we had when we were a child. The fight to live, the fight to enjoy, the fight to be loved, and the fight to love... just simply because when we are children, if we feel it is what we are to do, we act upon it. Not to be confused what we want to do, yet what we are suppose to do.

The older we get, the more time passes, and the more information we must filter through our minds. Along with this stream of information there is truth and there is fallacy. Yet with such an opinionated World today, it is difficult to know the difference. We can develop very strong belief systems that isn't necessarily truth. The task of un-programming fallacy and bad habits is difficult enough, yet having to then reprogram it and decipher which information to replace it with, makes it seem even more difficult.

In the second dimension, (read previous blogs to understand the three dimensions) the way we learn to increase desire and motivation is by thought and action. Thought given enough attention will lead to action, and action will lead to an increase desire. You want your physiology to change, go do something different that is out of the ordinary. I believe doing something completely differently than what you have been programmed to do will lead you to eternal truth, not because the action is the saving grace, yet you are able to view things from a different perspective. Looking at life differently allows you recognize the flaws of your programming and see the truth in purpose to program your self.

We all have friends that we wish we could just shake and give information that "WE FEEL" would help them. Yet it is impossible to change someone. A person can only change them self. Yet we must be a silent example. What I mean by that is we first must look at our own life, decipher fallacy, and as we see truth we will attract to it. We will go towards the light and knowledge naturally. And as we lead to the light and knowledge it is directly linked back to our magnetism, law of attraction, and others will follow you to this greater light. It must be done with out criticism of another human being, because what a person does not know, he cannot act upon, yet just because he knows not, does not mean he will be OK.

The B Side To The Truth is we each have a purpose. What it is, only you can learn from yourself. And once you find your purpose you will know, you will thirst no more for what is missing in your life. Yet when you thirst no more, it mattereth not that you proclaim your new found purpose. And it mattereth not that you tell others that they should seek for this thing that has given you great joy. Because only an individual can be told by their own true'ness', their "I AM". Seek for truth and it will find you! Yet it will not fall into your lap.
