When have you been most happy in your life?
The answer will most likely vary depending on your age.
If you ask a younger person in their 20’s or 30’s, the answer will most likely surround and include achievement milestones, goals hit, positions obtained, or places of glamour traveled and experienced. You know, the ones that are Instagram worthy :-)
If you ask a little older person (40’s and up), they will most likely describe moments of contentment, and connectedness. Ordinary moments that were made extraordinary by catching a flash of joy, a moment of inner stillness, or a deep, intimate conversation with a friend or loved one.
It has been observed, studied and accurately said that there are two halves of life. The first focuses on establishing your identity and expressing your ego. This is mostly spent on pursuing external gain.
The second half of your life is spent pursuing inner gain. Those things that provide feelings of significance, meaning and soulful fulfillment.
The most meaningful lives are often not the extraordinary ones, but ordinary lives lived with dignity. 💯
The outstanding truth is we ALL have the ability to touch the people around us and positively affect their world.
I get it - when you’re young it’s far more about me, myself and I. Finding your purpose and figuring out who you are.
But, once you get enough life experience under your belt and the “me, me, me” starts to wain and get old, we begin to realize putting others first is where life becomes it’s best.
Concern for people and family, besides yourself. Service to others is a higher achievement than traditional success.
A meaningful life is not found in success and glamour. It’s found in the mundane; the nitty gritty of life. Simple actions and work that serves others and/or your community.
Many people are currently unhappy, discontented, looking for ‘something else’ (e.g. their one true purpose), when they are actually missing ‘something more’. The very ‘More” they are searching for can be found in doing whatever they’re doing, at that moment in life, with purpose.
If you are younger, take my advice, get started on living that way now.
You might as well - you’ll end up discovering that wisdom in the second half of your life anyway.
To those of us older, wiser folks, be sure that you have graduated into the second half of life - embrace and celebrate the wisdom learned that life is not about the accumulation of success or moments of glamour.
It’s about those precious moments of connectedness and contentment. Moments of contribution and service to others. Filling your heart and soul – being and adding value to others.
That is what makes life worthwhile, and a meaningful life well lived.
Sweet Blessings,
Brock
