Week 171
Positive post Sunday, May 31, 2020- Week 171.
If you look up “Human nature”, you will find that Wikipedia defines it as, a bundle of characteristics, including ways of thinking, feeling, and acting, which humans are said to have naturally. I also believe it is human nature to seek meaning and purpose in life, granted more intensely at varying times in our lives.
Although my kids and grandkids would say I’m just old, I prefer to say I’m experienced with a long and diverse history with more ups and downs than an amusement park rollercoaster. As I reflect back over the years, I must say that I have truly been blessed to have learned from each and every experience the good Lord has and continues to throw my way.
As you might have figured out by now, I love to read and write, and I’m now at a time in my life where I regularly do both. I particularly enjoy reading and writing about things that many might see as human nature, like seeking to understand the meaning and purpose in my life or looking for ways to serve others and the Lord. As I reflected on a few of my past posts and while writing this one, I came to the simple yet profound conclusion that, living a life of service to others and the Lord, is the purpose I choose for my life. I only wish I learned this earlier in my life, as I could have had an even greater impact.
What is in your bundle of human nature? What isn’t that should be?
What roles to Faith, Love, Hope and Family play in your life?
What do you work, live and strive for?
