Live for something bigger than yourself.

Live for something bigger than yourself.

 If you haven’t yet learned this universal truth, I hope you will someday soon. Life really becomes meaningful and filled with purpose when you learn you aren’t the center of the universe.

 Life is not all about getting that job with the corner office or the handsome paycheck. It’s not about vacationing in Europe every summer or making “bank” as my 19 year-old son likes to say.

 Life becomes worthwhile when you realize it’s about giving more than you get.

It’s about serving others, not yourself.

 One of the mysterious paradoxes in life is the more you give your time, talent, and treasure to others, the more deep-seated satisfaction you receive in return. I don’t know how else to describe it and I don’t think there’s a way you can learn it without doing it.

 Give it a try. Sooner rather than later. You’ll save yourself a lot of wasted living.
