You are unparalleled and unique.
No one, who
has the same knowledge-wisdom-experience package as you do, has ever existed
and will exist. Your life
experience is only yours, it is unique, and your knowledge is only yours. Your
wisdom, gained from experience, is also one of its kinds.
If you find
your life goal or goals that fill you with excitement and joy, if you do what
really makes you happy, then your actions and the fruits they produce are the
greatest gifts you can give to yourself and to humanity.
You
are a unique blossom of life. Just like we all are.
The
world becomes more beautiful and better with you.
You pass
on your unequalled creations, as gifts, to humanity.
And if
we learn how to let the life programs inside us develop, then our lives will
blossom, just like the beautiful rose, which grew from a seed. Maybe, at
the moment, you find your life boring. You feel that you are just an ordinary
person, who has no extra talent or knowledge, so you cannot provide anything to
humanity that others could not.
You are
wrong.
Your
personality manifests in what you do. Like the works of inspired painters,
composers, writers and other artists are unique and valuable because of their
personalities.
What you really want?
Have you ever wondered about this?
You felt,
that behind life’s everyday routine, there is a huge question in you:
What is
it I should really do?
What is
my life goal, my life mission?
Find it,
seek it!
Because if
you find it, happiness will fill your days, you will flow together joyfully
with life. You are happy and enthusiastic. You are alive, you truly are alive!
The program of
becoming a rose is implicitly coded in the rose seed. It will not turn out to
be a chrysanthemum, only and exclusively a rose. The program of the warbling,
flying songbird is coded into the nestling hiding in the egg. When the sperm
united with the egg cell, this zygote already had the program of becoming an
adult. Then why would you not have in
yourself the program of becoming a “grown up” man?
Just simply
let yourself freely play with the question: What
is it that really inspires you?
There must
be at least one thing in you, which you do not practice because it is your
duty, or that is how you make your living, but you do it because you do it with
enthusiastic happiness. You enjoy it when you can do it.
Maybe this
is handiwork. Maybe craftsmanship, photography, painting, creating handmade
goods, or dealing with nature and people. When you find that thing or those
things which you do with enthusiastic joy, you also find your life goal with
them.
You know
and feel it, that this is what you should do. Because when you are doing this,
you are tireless, full of energy, happy and creative.
If the
circumstances make it impossible for you to do these activities as your main
occupation, then simply do them in your free time. But you should definitely do
them: because if you do, life will be alive with joy in you and through you!
All you
have to do is to become conscious and stay that way, nothing more. Live in the
world and discover what is it that you do with joy and what makes you happy,
and what is, at the same time, your life goal!
When you
are conscious, you transfer the light of your consciousness onto your
environment.
When you
do your job with enthusiastic joy, the fruit of your work is your beautiful
gift you give for life, evolution and for humanity.
