Love and to be loved. This is just from me based on what I am focusing on getting out of life. You may choose to let go or fill in the blanks with your very own idea. I'm sharing my idea on the purpose of life with a hope that it can inspire you to think small and do what's possible today so that you can live your life meaningfully. For decades I have been living exactly the opposite of the meaning that I stated. I was rejecting love and was not giving them too. It was always about me and my audacious goal on becoming wealthy so that I can give back to the world.
Love
Looking back, I just want to laugh at myself hard. True purpose of life is to love and to be loved. Love means service. Service to people by giving your time, love, money or even attention. Anything small or big doesn't matter but what matters is giving purely without any expectations. That's love, true love actually. It's hard to find them now but it's worthwhile to be such a person who gives love without any expectations. Unconditional love is not only for mothers but it's open for all.
To be loved
The second part of the purpose is to be loved. Well at first you gave but the next step is to receive all the gifts of love with open arms. Don't judge them by the size or value. If you are lucky, people might love you for who you are and so please embrace that because they are using their life force and precious time to give you love. Receive that openly. So now, the second part may sound hard but to receive only love is a complete failure in fulfilling the life purpose statement. You will receive hatred as well. Criticism, envy, jealousy and all the bad vibes. Embrace them and face them.
To receive only good things is like trying to build your body without exercising. The hardest part is turning every single negativity aimed at you into love. The only way to do it is by thinking that it is too small to impact you and embrace it with a smile.
I wish you all the love for being here alive reading this.
