hey! i’ve reflected a lot these past months about purpose, meaning, direction and many other things that shape me, and i realized there’s still a long way ahead. not everything in life is roses, and i like that, because i learned to notice that when we’re doing nothing (as the saying goes, “idle hands are the devil’s workshop”), life simply loses its magic and stops working. as humans, we have our purpose!
and going further into that idea of purpose — of course, i believe the purpose of our life is to do good and live in God’s ways, but we don’t limit ourselves only to that. my favorite hobby/work is programming, and that’s what shapes my identity. sometimes the weekend comes and we don’t know what to do, simply because there’s nothing to do! and that’s what i want to talk about: having a purpose and being happy with who you are.
as a man, one of my main missions is to learn. i always like exploring new paths — discovering things i didn’t know, diving into what seems impossible and always coming out with a new lesson for life. i don’t like limiting myself to the comfort zone i’m in, because it’s simply insufficient and always will be! when i learn something new, i don’t feel more powerful — i feel more complete, and that’s one of the reasons i’m happy: i know i’m not perfect, but i strive every day to be more complete, after all, no two days are the same.
so i’ll always be seeking to learn new things, do good and live a simple style — not chasing the best of everything or a luxury life where i have it all. i seek to be happy, and happiness doesn’t always need several mansions to happen! sometimes you just need to know your purpose and live your life in that. have a place you can call your own, have a goal to fulfill until the end of your life, have God in your life (because without him you’re empty) and do good. Be happy.
