Living passionately is the gateway to living purposefully

Living a passionate life

leads to a purposeful life

A purposeful life?

What is that?

A life filled with meaning

A sense of belonging

Of purpose

Of connectedness

How does one define passion

One then asks

Easily

By doing that which makes your heart sing

Your mind soar

Your soul connect

With the Divine

How does one connect with the Divine

One may ask

Simple

By taking time to connect

With the silence

To reconnect with the nothingness

That is the all

What is the nothingness that is the all

One may ask

Easy

It is the compass

That keeps us going

Guides us through

Our darkest night

Helps us to find our way

When we are lost

How do we get lost?

Easily

When we get caught up in the busyness

When we do not do what we are meant to do

When we close our hearts and souls

To the calling that is within us all the time

Why do so many of us get lost

One may ask

Simple

Because we are human

And being lost is a part of our growth

Necessary for us to understand

The yin and yang

Of our existence

Why is it that some of us stay lost

One may ask

Easily

It depends on how one defines lost

Each one of us

From the beggar on the street

To the wealthiest man in the mansion

Has a divine purpose

A reason for being here

Can make a difference

Does make a difference

So what we must do

To connect to our Divine Purpose

Simply

by not 

Trying to define who we are

And just be who we are

Stop seeking

And just be found

Stop judging

And just accept

Stop projecting

And just live

Our lives can become 

Whatever we dream

When we fully believe

And have faith

To be strong enough

To let go

Not struggle

Not question

Not second guess

But truly let go

To make room

For the Divine

To step in

To intervene

And show us the way

The truth and the light

Allowing faith

To do its thing

When we live our lives with passion

We live our lives with purpose

We stand tall

We stand firm

We smile a lot

And we automatically shine our light

Out into the world

For all to see

For all to feel

Including us

Especially us

Living passionately

Is the gateway

To living purposefully

Aah

Namaste
