I asked life, “What am I here for?”
And life answered softly,
“Maybe you already lived it
when you sat beside someone who felt alone,
when you carried bags for an old neighbor,
when you fed a hungry animal,
when you made your mother laugh
in a heavy moment.”
You keep looking for a big purpose,
but your heart has been doing it quietly
all along.

when I choose life as it is…
inquiry for today~ tell yourself it’s ok…
Someone I loved once gave me a box full of darkness.
It took me years to understand that this too, was a gift.
