Are you doing what you believe in, or are you settling for what you are doing?
I think that I have to answer this question by saying that I am doing what
I believe in it because I Am sincerely searching to find what I do believe in and what I am doing is giving me the ability to keep looking for the right path for me.
I believe that I was settling for what I was doing for much of my life, which ultimately led to a life that was unfulfilled, unexciting, and fake.
Life had been moving along just fine, a job, a career, a belief that I was
doing what I should, and on the surface, it seemed that was where I should have been.
But below the surface, I never felt quite right about it. It always felt like there was something significant missing, but I ignored that feeling for many years and carried on.
There were many good times and great experiences, but in the end, there was a feeling that I should be doing much more with my life.
Finally, circumstances came into place that made me face significant questions about who I was and what I wanted from life. I would recommend that anyone be careful of asking too many questions unless you are ready for answers you may not like.
Once the ball started rolling, I couldn’t stop if I tried. I was turning over rocks
to see what answers were under them, usually finding another rock that provided another question, which needed another answer.
There are many questions that I will never answer, but the point isn’t to find an answer but to strive for an answer and find the truth about yourself along the way.
So as I continue to search for truth, I am doing what I believe in, and that is treating everyone I meet with respect, making honoring choices, and trying to be the best person I can be.
Appreciating all of the experiences I am fortunate enough to have in life and making the world a better place for those with who I come in contact. That is all anyone can do, and I think to make this experience the best we can for all involved.
Life is definitely not boring or fake to me. I know that everything I have experienced is for a reason. There is meaning in every part of it. I appreciate that and believe that I am making a difference in my own way and will continue to for as long as I am fortunate to be a living human being on the planet.
So that is what I believe in and what I am doing in everything that I do. There is no time for settling anymore. There are far too many rocks to be turned over, answers to be shared, and truths to find.
ALL MY LIFE, I’VE BEEN SEARCHING FOR SOMETHING
