This is a HUGE topic to cover. Just saying. I'll try my best to cover as much as I can. I may make a second part to this post if I need to cover more.

Let me start this off by telling you something you already know. The world isn't always a good place. It will destroy your spirits and beat you unconscious.. if you let it, that is. Nothing in your life will ever hit you as hard as life itself. But it's not about how hard you hit, it's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take. In your life, you will deal with pain.

PAIN is temporary. Pain may last for a minute, an hour, a month, or maybe even a year. But eventually, it will fade, and something else will take it's place. When you quit, however, the pain will last forever.

Just imagine this with me for a second. You are growing very old, and you are sad. Your life is almost over, and you just learned you didn't live it correctly. You let yourself be bullied and judged by others. You didn't take risks you wish you did take. I don't know about you, but I never get sad if I did bad in something. If I get last in a race, I won't care. It was an experience, along with everything else in the world. One more to add to my giant collection of experiences. What I do get sad about is if I didn't do the race altogether. I would have missed an amazing opportunity which I could have had a lot of fun in.

Now, if you're still reading I'd like to ask YOU a question. Do you know why you are here? Why god chose to give YOU the gift of life? Well, this paragraph might answer that all. What is it that gives your life a sense of meaning and purpose? First, see if you know what your life work is. I encourage you to start working on it. It shouldn't happen all at once, and doesn't have to. Instead, you can do your life's work little by little. If you don't know what it is you came into this world to do? Find it. I cannot tell you how to do it, but once you find it you become powerful. It puts you in your power place. Your life is so much better. 85% of Americans, according to studies, are going to jobs they HATE.

People who hate their job? They haven't found their purpose of life. That makes only 15% of us who know our life's purpose. Only 15% of us who have figured out their meaning and purpose to life. I say your life is worth finding what it is supposed to do. in your dreams, you see yourself doing amazing things. I saw myself being a black belt in Taekwondo..

"Wow," I say to myself "I wish I could be like that." I say to myself.

Little do I know most would never have pursued that dream and goal. But I did. I am happy I did, and it was one of the best decisions of my life so far. Most never use those gifts, talents, and most never pursue those goals. Now, your dream self is looking at you angrily. They say you were given those gifts, and you should use them. They say to take risks and live your life to the fullest. What they say is true.

You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of. You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life. I cannot explain what the true meaning of life is, but you can. It's different to everyone. It's unique.The meaning of life is what you make it. You need to find it, but you don't need to look for it. Life is the most complicated thing possible for people to explain.. but life is a gift. Remember that.

I will try 100 times to get up, and if I fail 100 times, if I fail and I give up, do you think that I'm ever going to get up? Definitely NOT! But if I fail and try again? And again and again? For as long as I try I have a chance of getting up. It's not over until you quit. It never is.

As I need to conclude Part I of this post, I have one more question for you. If you were to die today, what gifts, what talents, what goals, what achievements, what gifts, and what else would die with you?

Life,
The most misunderstood word. Life is something no one quite understands. You can live life to the fullest, but you shall never fully understand life itself. Life is a confusing path to go on, and it can often be worrying for some people. Some people don't know what their life has in store for them. Live life one day at a time... never force life, or life will force you. It's quite equal and only you can live your life.
