Finding My Purpose

I spent 20 years searching for my purpose in life, and found nothing. The entire concept is a mental delusion.

Finding your purpose is a pointless search for the end of the rainbow.

Life has meaning, but there’s no purpose or meaning to go and search for because there was never a purpose that was lost.

When we’re born, we live fully in our bodies – grounded in the present moment. No past or future, only this moment right now.

Through childhood trauma it becomes too overwhelming and painful to keep living in the body, so we retreat into our minds.

We start living through our thoughts.

We suffer.

Our mind is never satisfied or happy. Always dreaming of some future better time.

As you integrate the past trauma and find the safety to return to the body, the searching for purpose automatically disappears.

Then the joy and happiness of being grounded in the body, in the now, can begin to arise – because that’s the only thing that can make a life of purpose.

Being fully present in the now and in the unfolding of one moment after another.
