Did I intrigue you? 🙂 OK! So what makes anyone beautiful (disregarding of their age, jean-size, etc.)? Let me spill the beans right out! And that thing is… The PURPOSE (or something that gives true meaning to your life)! Yes, and you know why? Because having a purpose makes you FEEL beautiful! Today is the Mother’s Day… And the reason why I’m sharing this post today is because Motherhood is what I see as my purpose! It’s something that’s making me feel… worthy of taking my place in this world! And for that I’m celebrating my boys (Aric and Alec) and thanking God for letting me be their Mom! 🙂 Because they always make me feel beautiful, whether I’m wearing my makeup or not, and disregarding of what the number on my scale says!
Yet, the Purpose doesn’t only have to be in Motherhood! Actually anyone can have more than one purpose in life! Being a teacher or being a wife, being a team-player or an entrepreneur – if you know that what you’re doing truly helps people (vs. doing it for your own profit 🙂 ) – it gives you that purpose!
Hey, I know it sounds kind of banal and grand, right? But the thing is… from my being a girl who cares about her appearance 🙂 this whole Purpose talk is actually based on my own life experience! And here’s why:
How Knowing Your Purpose makes you Beautiful:
- Having a purpose makes you a Beautiful person! And as we already know from the fairy tales – beauty is always more than skin deep!
- OK, we already know all the fairy tale stuff, don’t we? But how about… Having a purpose draws you away from yourself toward something bigger than you are. This gives you the confidence to know that you are important! (Disregarding from what size jeans you wear!) And you can’t be beautiful and attractive without being confident! Right?
- Having a purpose means doing something great for the community, right? But what happens when you do good things for people? They are grateful and they smile back! They appreciate you for who you are! Doesn’t that make you feel more beautiful than when someone complimenting your tight skirt? I know that it does for me!
- Most importantly having a purpose isn’t anything that fades overtime! (Like the physical beauty does). It’s that light in your eyes that actually grows with you as you grow in your journey of following your purpose! No one can take that away from you! And it’s never too late to find one!
So what do you think about that? Do you know your Purpose? Because I’m sure that you have one! Only some of us may not be acknowledging it! I hope that after reading my little grand-words post you’ll praise yourself for serving Your purpose and realize how beautiful you truly are!
Happy Mother’s Day! What a beautiful holiday to celebrate! 🙂
The world is bigger and you do need to know your purpose. Wise words my friend! Moving beyond yourself is an opportunity for growth within.
