Purpose

What are you living for?
What is your purpose for existing?

These questions are a point of tremendous focus, personally and socially. 
Many humans struggle with these questions. 
There are hundreds of thousands of books, seminars, and self-help programs on the topic.

The question of what your purpose for living is, can actually be much more simple than one might imagine. 
Your purpose. The reason you are in this live, at this time, is simply put, who you are.
Who you are, is who you've always been.
The nascent threads which began in your earliest moments. The passion and joy you felt at the beginning of your life. The most precious pieces of your childhood experiences.
The things which gave you a sense of purpose then, are the things which give you a sense of purpose now.

Life is much more about the tangible journey, and much less about the intangible goal.

The truth, Beloved, is that you know. We all know what we live for. The issue, the disconnect, is social conditioning which convinces us that our passion, our purpose, is impractical or unattainable. The issue is self-doubt. 
It's time to ditch the doubt and go all-in on yourself.
Come home to yourself, remember your purpose, my love.
You are the writer of this story. 
You run this show. 
You don't follow your passion, your passion follows you.
