Do you have a purpose in life?

Something that gives meaning to your life? Something in life you wake up everyday to fight for? Something in your life that lets you believe all the struggles...all the hardships...all the pain of moving forward is actually worth it?

If so, what is it that something that keeps you going?

My purpose is to exist. I used to get tied up with my self worth and purpose and then a few failures, people died, hearts get broken...

I keep it simple. I woke up breathing, cool, let's do something good with today.

@ScreamingFox I love the "...let's do something good with today."

Enjoying nice things that life offers sometimes. That's pretty much it.
LadyBronte · 61-69, F
@CrazyMusicLover Sometimes, finding something that brings us joy is all we can manage. Good for you to have found the ability to appreciate life's gifts.

Life is a rush. I wake up wanting every moment that the day brings. When my time comes, I don’t want to look back and wish. I’m here now. I’m going to get everything I can.

Love hard. Work hard. Enjoy life.

@Adogslife Love this so much. You remind me of a good friend of mine. Same out look. Same zest and appreciation for life. I admire that in you.
Adogslife · 61-69, M
@LadyBronte Thank you. 🙏🏻❤

But I am a good friend of yours. It just happens to be on the dumb inter web. 😉
LadyBronte · 61-69, F
@Adogslife Yes, you are. Thanks for that - interwebs or not.

My family and having given a second chance at life after having my mitral valve replaced last year.
LadyBronte · 61-69, F
@HowtoDestroyAngels I hope you're doing well and getting stronger. Beautiful answer!

Meaning in my life? Meh. Just that I’m supposed to be here.
Fight for? I guess I just wake up and fight for another day to be kind to someone who doesn’t get much kindness.
As for the next question? I suppose it’s just the hope that my path will eventually reveal its worth in the end game.

Just breathing in and out is what keeps me going.
LadyBronte · 61-69, F
@FlowersInHerHair I so relate to this on a deep level. Wishing you happiness going forward and for life to reveal what you seek.

Helping other people. It's my oxygen.
LadyBronte · 61-69, F
@PowerofStories That's awesome. We all should claim that as one of our life's purposes.
to make an accepting someone very happy, secure, and loved; and hopefully give THEM a purpose in life
LadyBronte · 61-69, F
@PotsaLuck I love this.

I think everyone does
It's up to them to figure out what it is
LadyBronte · 61-69, F
@SW-User Indeed. Have you figured out yours?

this might sound weird, but I think about a tree. no matter the weather or what’s happening around it, a tree just is. trees stand stoic and peaceful, letting life happen. when the darkness is strong, thinking a tree helps me pause and regain focus beyond my pain. then I can focus on making things around me a little better than i found them (i'm an engineer lol)
LadyBronte · 61-69, F
@tenente Interesting. I'd not heard anyone express it that way before. If it works for you - stay the course.
