Purpose~ Realize It and Get Some~

I remember once, I had my children (at very young ages) write essays on their purpose in life.  I have 6 children.  My oldest child,  Mahagoney, wrote in her essay that she really didn't know her purpose and she supposed it is to live and die one day.  She was around 11 or 12 years old at the time.

I used to have a chalkboard that I bought from Ikea.  I would sometimes have lessons for the kids using the chalk board.  This was one of them.  I proceeded to draw a cervix with a vaginal canal and lots of little sperm all over the board.  I explained to my children (ranging in ages from 4 to 12) that each one of them was a miracle with a purpose....Because.... You see.....They (including you and I) are 1 in over 300-500 million sperm that made it to the egg.  Which means:  We all have purpose.  Our lives are a miracle.....

Don't believe?  Check the stats:  You are one in over 300-500 million sperm.  You are the one that made it. The one that survived.  The one that fought for your life even before you knew what fighting was.....You have purpose.....Now follow it.......and see where you were meant to go.

Things I've learned Along The Way (Concerning Humans & Trees)~

Somethings I've learned along the way:

1.  Sometimes family can be worse than your best enemy.

2.  People will be quick to forget the good deeds you've done and constant in remembering your mishaps and the negative.

3.  There is love for all of us.

4.  Forgiveness is like wealth...everybody wants it, but few know how to achieve it.

5.  Ever look at the power of trees....they stand regardless of the season....maybe because they know their purpose and only the greatest of storms uproot them; But even on their backs, they remain what they are.....TREES.

6.  A broken branch, does not deter the tree from its purpose.

7.  There is the moment, which is one day guaranteed to be a memory...cherish them.

8.  Beware of anyone, who does NOT see themselves as a part of nature (netcher).

9.   Even trees that bear fruit know, it must someday release it (the fruit) from it's branches.

10.  Even trees have bad roots that must be cut away.

11.  No tree stands alone.....it has branches (ever seen a tree without them).

12.  Ever wonder if a tree gets tired of standing?

13.  For the most part....trees weather storms.

14.  Even trees have seasons. (side note:  You can only see them giving thanks when they are bare of leaves, their branches, like hands, palms up, giving thanks during the coldest of seasons)

15.  A friend told me there is a poem somewhere in my innerstanding of trees......she is right........one day~

16. Trees started off as SEEDS and GREW INTO THEIR PURPOSE.

Working Towards Something~

We must all give birth to something.....Let it be YOUR Dreams.~

You are the master of your destiny.....Whatever you get, you've birth (brought into fruition) in one way or another......unless you give into someone else's power.....Remember your purpose and Keep Pushing Forward.

You are worth your weight in gold and more~
