Discovering a person's essence and purpose in life is one of the deepest and most personal questions that we can ask ourselves, in other words, our answers is going to be based on our personal experiences and what we have come to accomplish in life. Hence, essence of life and the purpose to leave it is base on individuals personality and struggles.
I guess this is one of the reasons why there is a phrase that goes by "Vanity upon vanity all is vanity" , because this life is like a piece of paper when a child is born he or she comes along as a clean slate but when humans come of age, the same to have a whole lots on their plates before they die. In essence, the search for purpose can take a person's whole life journey to get the perfect understanding of what their life means or why the exist at all.
So far, with my short existence and experience in life, there are different stages I have found myself in and I have got to question my purpose in life. Sometimes, I have been involved in different situations in life that allows me to ask questions like, why am I here?, What's am I good at?, Why am I alive?, What positive effects do I intend to live behind?, And so on and so forth. Despite our achievements, setbacks, we are made to question ourselves in one way or the other.
There are several reasons why people focus on finding through purpose for their lives worth, and this is because as human beings we want to live a life that matters and count in every sense of the word. Sometimes we do things to make people recognize us either positively or negatively, but all we want is to feel loved, accepted, to be at peace with ourselves and the people around us. In other words, having a sense of purpose helps us to be motivated and to stay at top especially when life becomes hard and unbearable. Again, from my experience having a sense of purpose helps to direct us in our way of life and strengthens us as we go by.
Purpose can come in different ways that has to do with a person's personality and struggles and these includes, pain and struggles, passion, service, spirituality, life experiences, reflection etc. It could also be by passing exams, overcoming trials and tribulations, helping others to heal, inspiring others, passing around positivity through talent, surviving, raising your kids with love and so many more.
In conclusion, despite the fact that we Hustle all through our lives on Earth to have a meaningful life and to live healthy and satisfied, our essence in life is determined by how we leave it and how our experiences shape us to be better people.
