What on earth am I here for?


Have you ever asked yourself the question, what on earth am I here for?

To many people, the meaning of life is neither an unquestionable answer nor an answerable question.

Many wise men tell us that the purpose of life is a life of purpose, and indeed it is.

But do we really know what all that means? In all probability, it was easier said than done.

In a sentence life is simple, it's just not easy. True or not?

Kathleen Norris puts it this way, "Life is easier than you think: all that's necessary is to accept the impossible, do without the indispensable, and bear the intolerable." Pretty tough thing to do, isn't that?

To some,life is like a box of chocolates but to many, life is a lot more like a loan shark; it exacts a very high interest for the few pleasures it concedes.

Well as they say, when life gives you lemons, don't complain, just make lemonade from them.

Always remember, count not on yourself, but count on God, the Giver of Life and surely you'll be in good hands.

I love this Dolly Parton song that's entitled "Backwoods Barbie". Follow the lyrics, they bring home a lot of memories, don't they?

Thanks to "HAARulz" for posting it on "Youtube" for us to enjoy. Hope you like it too.
