I've decided to follow the 40 Day plan of The Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren.
I am really trying to come to terms with the fact that the main goal in life is not to obtain wealth, happiness and success. America brainwashes us into thinking that we must have the biggest, the best, the fastest in order to be considered successful and no matter how much money you have more will make you even happier. We all have heard of the rich and famous people who are miserable and poor people that appear to be happier, Why is that? Yes, living a life of comfort is great, no one wants to struggle for the basics, food, shelter, clothing or the means to enjoy one self but where does comfort end and greed begin?
My ultimate goal is to totally realize that I am a child of the Most High God and everyone else are my brothers and sisters deserving of love, respect and a helping hand, so let it begin with me.
